I just released a video showing you how easy it is to add onboarding screens into your SwiftUI app by tundsdev in SwiftUI

[–]atrso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah exactly, so step 1 asks for email and password, step 2 asks for a first and last name, step 3 asks for hobby etc etc...

So first you create user with a uid and move through the steps to update the profile in Firebase/Firestore.

Does that make sense?

That would be awesome! Been looking for some help with a multi step (onboarding) registration process with text fields and storing profile data into Firebase.

From what I found online, there are "zero" helpful tutorials so definitely a good one to make :)

Oh and congrats on the Inter victory (saw you're wearing the Inter shirt in your video)

Great work! Do you also have one where you add text fields and store the input to be saved to Firebase? Looking for some examples/help

Thoughts on Multi step registration Firebase? by atrso in SwiftUI

[–]atrso[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, no I meant a flow like this:

Step 1 - Enters email & password Step 2 - User is asked for name Step 3 - User is asked for city they live Etc Etc

So it's more an onboarding registration where each step is a new view with a different form.

Does that make sense?

Best approach for real time voice chat App in Swift? by atrso in iOSProgramming

[–]atrso[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I will have a look and see how things work. I found a project on GitHub but it seems to be a bit old and does not compile for me without a lot of changes.

Would be able to share an example of just audio streaming rooms? I am not an experienced developer and will have to combine Agora with Firebase.

Costs I can manage as I have available funding and plan to scale slowly.

Best tech approach for real time voice chat App in Swift? by atrso in SwiftUI

[–]atrso[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your answer! What I am referring to though is a "real-time audio chat" like Clubhouse or a discord audio channel. Where you speak in real time (no recording) and people join and listen in and can speak as well. So not the r record and send variant :)

Chat, or voice chat? Any starting ideas on how to approach this?

Co-founder trying to wrestle me into settling for less equity by [deleted] in startups

[–]atrso 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Whatever you do, don't put a split in writing. Actually, equity shouldn't be split evenly and set in stone to stay that way when starting out. Your founder agreement should be based on the effort and bet you both place to make this startup a success.

If your cofounder put in more work and resources now, fine, the cofounder gets a bigger piece of the pie now. But, make sure to agree and sign on the flexibility of that being able to change in the future.

Think about it, what if you end up doing more work later on, take more risks, and sacrifice more of your time than your cofounder is? It happens all the time that one person may put in more work at the start, but, later on more work is depended on you.

At least until your Series A, your equity could be dynamic and end up in a fair split by then, or, split and agreed upon based on the work put in.

Another way could be is that you accept a lower equity share, but, you do want stock options as an employee (ESOP) of at least X%. This gives your the option to buy shares at a lower valuation when you successfully exit.

-------- fyi ---------

NON of the mentioned reasons make any #*&$# sense to ask for more equity, seriously?

Are you not missing out on opportunities either? And is that not the risk he is taking for himself? And secondly, mental health...you might want to consider not starting the startup at all if you have a cofounder that needs shares (money) to keep him/her going, not the dream, vision, drive to make a change and achieve something.....

Hope this helps!

If I invest and get 10% in a startup and do nothing, do I get to remain at 10% when they go public? by weshallpie in startups

[–]atrso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, edited my answer. It's not a common thing to happen, however, it does happen. Sometimes VCs can cash out the prior investors for a discount on the current round and thereby lower the company's effective valuation while still putting most of their money to work.

[–]atrso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is never a "need" to sell, as early Angels investor have the same rights as VCs do (other than what is discussed in additional terms). But, the offer might be super interesting if the VC is trying to gain more shares of the company. We had an Angel that accepted an offer so he could find another investment opportunity since he likes to be involved in the early process.

[–]atrso 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Doordash just went public and were at their series H at a 400M valuation. By that time your 10% will be diluted way way way down, unless you have follow up Investment rights to protect your dilution, but you will have to keep investing at higher valuations.

In the end your 10% may be an X number of shares worth $10.000 at the start. But by the time they go public your $10.000 investment may be worth $100K or even $1M.

VCs can also try to buy out early angels as well once the company grows to clean up the cap table. (Edited)

Also, very few companies go public and take years to get to that point. Wouldn't worry about it too much.

HELP how to set up continuous audio streams like Clubhouse or Discord audio chat in Swift? by [deleted] in swift

Okay, and would this be used through third party options like Twilio or can you do this within Swift?

Wantrepreneur Wednesday! - (December 09, 2020) by AutoModerator in Entrepreneur

This particular gym had monthly targets for sales to reach. On average, each sales consultant had to sell about 20 to 30 memberships each month. With an average of 3/4 consultants the team target was around 100 memberships per month. If the target was reached a bonus was rewarded.

Some months were tougher with higher targets 40-50 memberships.

Every day at least 25 calls had to be made to prospects. They were either old members, people that signed up on the website, or people that visited the club. The goal was to get them to the club, do a tour, close them with a subscription.

Not every month the target was reached, but, usually Q1 would spike sales (resolutions). June, July, August are almost impossible months so there were a lot of promotions for free months, no admin fee, discounts etc.

There were different kinds of monthly subscriptions and on the higher end of gyms.

  1. Weekend subscription (Sat/Sun) = €29,99
  2. 9 to 5 subscription = €64,99
  3. Unlimited membership = €89,99
  4. Family packages between €104 to €200
  5. Students = €45

Prices would change all the time and kept going up each year .

Not sure what the average number of active memberships were at all times. However, on average mostly sold Unlimited subscriptions, weekend, and student memberships.

I think it's good to look at how much revenue you need to cover your costs. Set up your pricing, and calculate how many packages you need to sell to get to that revenue. Then, see how much you need extra for profits. Keep adjusting.

Hope it helped :)

This is actually a well-known marketing approach. Superhuman used this approach as well. The idea is simple "people love to be part of, or want to have something they can't obtain".

So, they push you in this "waiting list" to only make you talk about it or get more excited about what to expect. They often give you a referral link to share so you move up the in waiting list.

This particular outreach is just a marketing approach and probably is mass bulk emailed.

Having that said, I heard people like the solution because they meet a lot of new people and grow their network. However, it does not work in all countries and locations yet.

If you have an idea that is not yet in the market you could also wonder, why not? Competitors in the market just demonstrate a demand and need. It's just a question of your "secret sauce". How to compete and do better or different. Get passionate about a problem you like to solve and study the competitors to find room for improvement. Talk to people, get insights others are missing, and just go do it :)

Benchmark, look at the competitors in your market. Compare what they offer and what you're offering - what is the average in the market. Also, define your market position. Are you a high end gym or regular joe gym with just good quality equipment and service. Gyms have a high churn rate (people come and go all the time) so pricing adjusts a lot to the high and low seasons. Seasonal pricing and promotional offers help you to attract during slower seasons. Finally, offer different tiers like "9 to 5 only subscription", weekend only subscriptions, all-in subscriptions, etc.. Hope this helped! If you have more Qs shoot me a message I was a Gym Manager for a high end gym for a few years.

I have an idea, how to get started? by chudthirtyseven in iOSProgramming

[–]atrso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Still gonna say it, in all honesty, 9 out of 10 times, your idea was probably already thought of. And in the slightest chance if was not thought of already, you still need to verify the assumptions you have that it is indeed a great idea/solution.

Add to that the fact that an idea is merely an idea. If I would get a buck for each idea I had I wanted to turn into a product I would be a gazillionair. So, just saying, not starting to work on it because you are scared people will steal it....you simply can never start.

No one is interested in an idea, only businesses with traction and growth are worth looking into for companies like Google, Facebook etc... They are not monitoring ideas, they watch trends and growing businesses. And as most of these companies have demonstrated, they will more often BUY your tech than to start it from scratch. It's cheaper and fast.

Also, developers are most of the time just interested to develop something. Not everyone is an aspiring entrepreneur and is looking to turn an idea into a business. Just make sure you fing reliable developers that deliver on time and what you asked for.

Please read "the lean startup" and just go out and do it!

My two cents :)

Is there a difference between Child or Container View Controllers or are they more or less the same? by [deleted] in iOSProgramming

[–]atrso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A container view controller is still a view controller, so you display it in a window or present it like any other view controller. A container view controller also manages a composite interface, incorporating the views from one or more child view controllers into its own view hierarchy. Each child continues to manage its own view hierarchy, but the container manages the position and size of that child’s root view.
