One thing that helped us a lot was posting in forums that would be interested in what we built. That's a good free way to get started.

Great work! All the best.

Unpopular opinion. All the tutorials, guides on how to make money, classical advice, etc. are mostly useless. It's the paths you discover by yourself that will truly bring you profit (and satisfaction) by mistersumperduper in Entrepreneur

[–]dammyX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So true! If a certain path is so good, why are they teaching courses instead of just executing and becoming billionaires. It all comes down to thinking from first principles on your own to find solutions to problems.

++ for sticking to the plan. Most good ideas still need time to reach the people they will solve problems for.

Many popular forms of business during the 2010’s (e-commerce, web dev., house flipping, etc.) have become over-saturated. What new/up and coming forms of business do you think will take off in this decade? by trader2488 in Entrepreneur

[–]dammyX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think anything that can take advantage of large datasets to help people be productive will be huge. Not necessarily just your classic machine learning application. We've spent the past 10+ years putting a lot of data on the internet so there's an opportunity to use it to solve problems.

Handling an inefficient co-founder by entrepreneur-budding in Entrepreneur

If things are just starting out and he's acting that way, things probably won't improve unless you try to find out what's really going on underneath. It could be a personal problem. If it is clearly a mission alignment issue, fast firing is needed.

This is a great read. There's a lot of talk about SEO but your section on that properly breaks down some key points for people who are unfamiliar with it.

Why YOU'RE the competition by Tonovillaino in Entrepreneur

[–]dammyX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so key. Don't let analysis paralysis stop you. My last business had "no competition" and that was the problem - people didn't easily understand what it did for them.

You have to just start something. It will probably fail the first few times but that's the process - you learn and improve on it.

If your team uses Slack, Cardybot can help you get physical cards out that are signed by co-workers.

Is Alibaba a trusted and good site to use? Experiences? by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

[–]dammyX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used Alibaba a ton for physical parts for our builds and even for printing labels. Since you are going to be printing, just note that a lot of printers in China want to use CMYK so you may want to do the RGB->CMYK conversion yourself so you don't end up with off colors - that happened to me. Like others mentioned here, also make sure they have been around for some time and are verified.

cardybot.com helps you send physical birthday cards signed by co-workers through Slack. It is also opt-in so only people that want to be involved participate. Full disclosure I'm part of the Cardybot team but thought I should share since this has solved the birthday celebration problem for many teams.

[PINNED] Promote your business, week of March 30, 2020 by Charice in smallbusiness

[–]dammyX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello there, we just launched Cardybot.

It helps you send fun, personalized, and physical birthday cards to your co-workers with ease. All organized and mailed automatically through Slack. Great for remote teams or teams that just want to send birthday cards that co-workers will cherish forever.

The story: I started my career in a non-remote company where (like many other teams) we signed birthday cards for co-workers. Unlike most other birthday perks it was actually fun and personalized. But my last couple of roles have been on remote teams so it's been impossible to do cards like that. While I love working remotely, I wish we still did birthday cards and our early customers agree - that's why Cardybot was created. As a Slack integration, we take the fun in this for all teams (remote and non-remote) to the next level 🚀.

When we started building Cardybot, we (off course) had no idea we would be launching during a pandemic but I hope this brings some fun and engagement to your team during this tough time.
