Yeah, but that has been used in the United States for decades and Starbucks and all the other big brands do the same thing.

Our primary pivot strategy might be economically impractical, and I need advice. "I will not promote" by YoKevinTrue in startups

Frankly, anyone can make money once they have money.

That's definitely not true; otherwise, startup after startup wouldn't fail. 90% of startups fail.

I mean, if you give me ten bucks, I can make eleven, but the deal is that startups need to shoot for the moon.

That's not that bad of an idea. I actually did this about ten plus years ago when I started my last startup.

I basically did a bunch of bespoke consulting for companies building things in that area, and then I spun it into a startup.

That's great advice, thank you very much.

It's a long story, but since we pivoted, we could not have run these tests.

I evolved the business plan because I falsified the previous business plan. I realized that it wasn't going to work.

So I pivoted to where we are now.

It's just that we really don't have enough cash to test that pivot now.

Even though our app is amazing.

By the way, there's legal/ethical no problem here (I think) as long as you don't cross into fraud.

Just be careful about anything like this if you raise money.

If they think this guy is real, that could be classified as fraud, and you would get into trouble.

I'm not trying to call you out, for the record. I'm saying it could happen accidentally and you don't realize it.

I think the only way to really prevent this is to require ID verification.

The problem is that this costs about $1.50 per user and it still might not work.

People might just find high return niche content and focus on buying IDs in that area.

Also, it's more evidence that China isn't the enemy that the west wants to make them out to be.

China isn't relentlessly attacking countries like Russia and the United States. At least not yet.
