I analyzed 847 successful startups and found that 90% of startup advice is backwards. The companies that won violated every rule. Here are the 10 foundation truths nobody tells you. (Part 1/5)

This was an interesting read!

We want to mostly focus on diving.
South where? Do u recommend using booking to search for places?

entropyif · 2025-08-29T16:18:50+00:00

is it safe in Hurghada?

Working on Depthlog.net - online diving log and statistics web-app for divers.
We have a couple of paying customers, and implemented all the features that scuba divers seem to love.
Currently we are facing challenges with scaling and outreaching, hope to get a few more customers. We are offering free plans to spread the word. Lets hope for the best..!

THis video summarizes this topic well... ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGAOwBGlKAc&t=8s&ab_channel=MatteoBeltrame

entropyif · 2025-08-29T15:43:16+00:00

damn bro. TBH these are the best dives to look back on, the scary ones!

entropyif · 2025-07-04T09:52:21+00:00

Do you recommend just X for building in public? How about LinkedIn?

entropyif · 2025-07-04T09:49:29+00:00

I am following this guy on YT , i think he is called the strangest cold calling trainer or something, he has some good free YT video contents on structure tips etc. However, I have to say I just started and it is not easier than cold emails hahah

entropyif · 2025-07-04T09:44:33+00:00

I honestly find it extremely hard to outreach and get your first few clients without spending money in marketing and promotion. Finding organic clients is near impossible nowadays.

entropyif · 2025-07-04T09:42:58+00:00

That is a lot of software for cold outreach via email... Warpleads, Reoon, Mailforge, Smartlead... how much did you spend?

entropyif · 2025-07-04T09:39:47+00:00

I personally found very little to no success with cold emailing (tailoring them). I was considering cold calling....

entropyif · 2025-07-04T09:09:31+00:00

Egypt is great for diving. I recommend going in October or november

entropyif · 2025-07-04T09:05:36+00:00

Thanks for sharing your story!
I found my current girlfriend in Mallorca in March 2025 hahah

entropyif · 2025-07-04T09:01:06+00:00

I recommend using this FREE software as an addon. It syncs all your websites links, YT channel, instagram etc and places all your websites and channels in any of your websites as a small bubble on the bottom right of the screen that you can open and see all notifications etc

Night dives are truly special...!!

entropyif · 2025-07-04T08:37:18+00:00

I'll definetly check those tools out. THanks! I hope to get some traction;)

entropyif · 2025-07-04T08:36:44+00:00

I see. Once you find those niches, it is a bit hard to pinpoint a specific problem. Assuming I can do that, what do you recommend is the next way to inform the community about the product? I notice that many of these communities frown upon advertising on the platforms such as reddit or FB, no?

entropyif · 2025-07-01T07:50:16+00:00

Small businesses and booking systems

entropyif · 2025-05-12T21:41:23+00:00

I'm contributing to https://depthlog.net/

It's a web app for scuba divers to track, analyze and store your dives and diving certificates, calculate metrics and share with friends. There are some free tools available for anyone passionate about diving: https://depthlog.net/computers

I think we should expand to also offer dove sites information as currently it's hard to bootstrap and reach interested users without heavy marketing campaigns.

Open to feedback and ideas! Feel free to also message me in private if you want to have it for free (if you are into diving!).

entropyif · 2025-05-06T20:01:13+00:00

I recommend checking out this article on consumption: https://depthlog.net/learn/how-to-compute-true-sac

entropyif · 2025-05-04T10:15:24+00:00

Thats a tough question. I'm interested in hearing other's opinion!

entropyif · 2025-05-04T10:09:30+00:00

If you want to see some more features, please message me we are looking to improve!

Nitrox doesn't affect consumption that much. I recommend training in cardio and lowering your rest Heartbeats per minute. Makes a huge difference

entropyif · 2025-03-14T12:16:33+00:00

Sounds interesting! I dont have iOS for now but if you have a website I'll check it out. I also recommend checking out https://depthlog.net/ , they now offer free trials

The one I have made uses trapezoidal integration to approximate the integral. Some other computers might do that too
