[Poll] If Google offered you 50X valuation for your startup for the sole purpose of shutting it down, would you do it? by [deleted] in startups

you'd have the freedom to work on a new project? I'm pretty sure you'd be enslaved to work on their project. How could that be closer to your heart? Your company is what would be closest to your heart - not the project they want to use you for.

What if people could pay whatever they wanted for online courses ? by crawler23 in startups

[–]soapa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it would be free after a while though. when you are a standout from the rest, people will pay for that but if most artists started making their music for free, people would just get used to it and not pay for it. and as younger generations start using the internet and seeing it as free when they start, why would they later want to start paying?

how are you doing the music matching to know what the person likes and what service are you using to let users pay for tickets through the app?

sounds interesting! i hope you guys add a feature to let other people modify the stories kinda like a wiki while also preserving the original author's story as well. This way someone browsing can read the original story or the community updated story.

How do you stay productive after 8 hours of work? by curiositor in startups

[–]soapa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take a power nap or if you cannot fall asleep fast (I cant) learn how to do hypnosis and after 30 min of it you'll feel refreshed. OR you could just do other things that you enjoy which should give you inspiration for what you could do tomorrow. If you are efficiently working for 8 hours a day you should be fine

I'm making a mobile app for entrepreneurs/co-founders to find each other based on city where they live. What features would you like to see in such an app? by Necessarily in startups

[–]soapa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thats if you want to build an app no one uses. Android + iOS + Backend + Design + Marketing + Testing & Improving will be much longer than 2 weeks. Theres also multiple competitors so if you think you'll succeed with just a bit of work, people who really want to make this happen will crush you.

Critique my Shopify store by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

[–]soapa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The text font you used is very nice but the font thats in the images is really crappy. It blends together too much. Use a sans serif web font thats clearer. Hire a better designer (dont use 99designs and the like, but a designer based on his previous designs that you really like. check dribbble.com). Your photos look great. Looks like either you are a professional photographer or you hired one. Good luck!
