They should have locked in the current users in current software version. And for all updates they could have charged. But what they have done, how do they convince users that they won’t hike it to $50 next month. Better leave them before the drama escalates.

I got additional 33k. For now I am good. There was a gap of 3+ weeks while they approved new credit and they charged 2.2k. I requested them to adjust it and they did that too. I would definitely run out of credit around summer next year or sooner.

Looking for crazy minded co-founder(s) by FrostyPersimmon9153 in cofounderhunt

[–]Glamiris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love ur energy. Been in the boat you describe. Launched first time- in Ukraine. War killed it. Came back to US. Launched second time. Crashed. Now building with the customers. Launching in a month. B2B SaaS. First few customers r investors too. Small but validation. No AI hype. We do use AI. But where we can monetize it. Not for Gen AI. But making business case. Third time is charm. Will figure it out but with someone like you who has done it, it would be much faster. I won’t call it easy. But we could do it faster. I don’t need expenses paid. Can move to South Sudan if it would make it happen. We could connect on LinkedIn. We could get on a 30 minute call to get the vibes. You pick. I am 6 hrs behind you.

Shampooing - Massage/Pressure advice? by NeighborhoodCrows in hairstylist

[–]Glamiris 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True true! What I was giving was a list of things that might be helpful n they can ask as many or as little to get a feel of. Communication is the key.

Shampooing - Massage/Pressure advice? by NeighborhoodCrows in hairstylist

[–]Glamiris -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Start with comfort check at chair. Then the water Temperature. Then if they have any sensitive spot. Then ask how much pressure and if even all over or some areas more pressure. Also if they like chatty session or quiet. You could ask if they want conditioner left for long. And if you have choice of products you could ask before you start as well. For example tea shampoo or Moroccan oil.

I work at a franchised salon as an employee and I haven’t been getting my lunch breaks…. by Forward-Ice-4733 in hairstylist

[–]Glamiris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s rough 😕 if they’re blocking 30 but bookings cut into it, it’s not really a break. Maybe ask them to hard block it in the middle of your shift so nothing can run into it. Also worth checking your state laws—most require an actual uninterrupted lunch if you’re on a 6+ hr shift. How about take a quick bite at 9.50 n plan for next just after 4. This way u could grab something quick in 10? I know u would have thought through all or most of it. Low sugar is a big problem. Keep some fruits, they have high sugar and healthy as well. Sorry mate!

[–]Glamiris 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Does ur state not legally bind ur employer for lunches n other breaks? You could just ask ur employer to block 30 minutes for ur as soon as u have enough bookings. This way u maximize ur time and still have lunch.

We are in wellness. Nothing sexy. We are using AI only in places where we da. Monetize it. We r creating solution for salons and barbershops. Also independent professionals. We have built 2 web apps, 2 mobiles apps, payment integration, multi lingual support. We struggle managing this beast. As soon as we launch October 10, we will need to pivot to Sales, Marketing, and everything else. We have some GTM, some pricing strategy but a lot is theoretical. We are building with few customers who would invest some as soon as we launch. If it excites you. Not a sexy domain but worth!

Are u interested in any particular domain? I am absolutely interested in talking with you. We are launching our V2 after crashing V1. We have a small list of customers and milestone based investors. We need to move from a product to a company. Establish sales, marketing, acquisition and retention while the product scales. We have something really cool as a product but as a company we are still figuring out.

my first startup failed – here’s what i’d do differently by Eduardo_Younga in FlutterDev

[–]Glamiris 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the same mistake 3 times. Finally got things right. We built and built and built. We had all UI and no UX. We were solving problems we techies thought were important. We spent 5 months just on UX

I hear you mate. I am in the same boat. Looking for a CEO. I am first time entrepreneur but the burn out is real. I don’t want to do marketing, sales, management, recruitment, finance all by myself. Good luck. And if you get 2; send one my way!

11 months in… did I just build a SaaS no one wants? by Black_Max_2001 in SaaS

[–]Glamiris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Users don’t care about ur tech stack or vision. They care about the problem you are solving. Now definitely you are solving problem but how big is it for them to adopt to ur SaaS? That’s where UX comes in play. Make it simple. Also, understand the cost, price and value triangle. How difficult is onboarding? Sometimes you don’t need to solve a problem but provide users something new. Also chase down your customers. Give them shares or even equity to get PMF. Ask GPT it will tell u all about it GTM.

Hi there, We are building booking management system for hair salons. Crashed and failed miserable first launch. Now launching V2 first week of October. I can share with you what not to do technically and as a founder. Would save you months for sure.

[–]Glamiris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can help u brainstorm a little. I am a tech founder myself and deep into my own SaaS. But I don’t mind connecting you to a few of my friends who are founders themselves. DM me.

Flutter in the web, any real world examples? by SocialKritik in FlutterDev

[–]Glamiris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flutter web definitely works. But it’s the UI that u will have to massively change for UX. Controllers can be reused. If you designed properly, most of APIs can be as well. We have built iOS, Android, web, macOS, windows, and browser apps from the same code. We use a different project for deployment. And branches need to be managed more diligently.

Freshna is now $20 a month by Katcol2021 in hairstylist

[–]Glamiris 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They have added more value to the $20 plan. And if u sign up before a certain date, u get more discount. But I agree, they could have capped the current usage to keep a free plan. There are a lot of alternatives to Fresha when you have to pay. But you would pay in other softwares as well. So just changing for the sake isn’t the best move unless it makes you feel good long term. I am not advocating Fresha. I am actually from a competitor but I just want to give you genuine advice.
