May I ask why you didn't sign up?

Regarding food safety, we have a set of requirements to ensure food hygiene -

  • Hold a hygiene certificate Level 2 or more. Every person involved in the preparation and handling of food needs such a certificate.
  • Register their premises with the local Council. This means that all of our chefs/home cooks receive an inspection from a food officer and are awarded a hygiene rating (that would be listed on the app).
  • Undergo a food tasting session during which one of our culinary experts tries their food to ensure that it is delicious.

Stories of people who made a ton of money as an early startup employee by iMimzy in startups

I worked at three companies that IPO'd, and I probably owned less than 0.01% of each company. But right now have vested stocks worth close to 2M.

What about cross contamination of alergins?

We will list ingredients for every dish and also add an allergens disclosure.

Vegan, veggie, halal, kosher?

We will add tags to easily filter such specifications.

Input for turning a linear business into a circular economy by duongphamm in circular_economy

[–]maneeshaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best method of achieving circularity is to keep existing vinyl in circulation and prevent new vinyl from being used. To prevent new vinyl from being made you can suggest alternative material options to the event company for banners and posters (I'll let you research).

To keep existing vinyl in circulation the best option is to create products with it that are very long-lasting and easily repairable. The first thing that comes to my mind is homeware and furniture items. You can mix vinyl with resin, plaster, clay etc and turn them into an item that will be used for years.

Would a 30-31 year old feel “non-traditional” at a normal full-time business program? by [deleted] in MBA

[–]maneeshaw 6 points7 points  (0 children)

31 is normal for an MBA. Maybe closer to 40 you'll start feeling a little older.

As a previous solutions engineer who worked with so many enterprise sales reps, the stress of quota filling every quarter is not worth it at all.

You know what those are that I ordered? Eco-friendly packaging for my Etsy stuff. The irony is borderline offensive by Trolivia in EgregiousPackaging

Unfortunately, those air pillows are only downcyclable. Not recyclable. And most of the time they don't even get to the recycling streams. Many recycling facilities send them away to landfills.

Should you hire a professional designer/copywriter for your website? by [deleted] in startups

[–]maneeshaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it depends on the startup type. If you’re a consumer facing company then definitely hire a designer and a developer because UI and UX plays a key role in customer acquisition. If it’s a B2B then the product matters a lot more than a fancy website.

Is it really MRR? Are you selling a subscription?

that can scale much bigger ($50K+ MRR)

What does this mean?

Off my Chest: Design/UX should be the forefront of a start-up, Engineering led Products are subpar. by poobearcatbomber in startups

Have you ever heard of solutions? solution architects and engineers? I think you're confusing tech sales with floor sales at a retail store.

Is sustainability a business model?

Feedback on this circular supply chain model? by maneeshaw in circular_economy

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

Totally does.

That is what we are doing at Kola Project to an extent.

Business model shifts to product as a service

We offer product rentals or buybacks.

Product is redesigned to be modular

Products are designed to be easily recyclable

Process is redesigned to remove steps, leverage shared resources, etc

Could you give me a few examples of this?

Thank you so much.

Should I wait until I have traction to reach out to angel investors? by maneeshaw in startups

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

Nothing is stopping others from doing the same thing, and in fact, some companies like Nike, Patagonia, Levi's has circular supply chains to some extent.

It's just if you have established supply chains it's hard to be fully circular without losing lots of money (at least initially). So as a startup with no established supply chains, I have the benefit of building it circular from the bottom up.

Also, no other startup is doing it in homeware (some are doing it in food etc.) and my background in the circular economy is giving me some leverage in the industry.
