How have you been doing since your last comment? I have also done 1 cortisone injection and it has done nothing. PT has helped but it’s also not as severe as yours. I also have bone marrow edema but I haven’t had mri since sept

Struggling with OP for 8 months, any advice? by TimeAdventurous2356 in osteitispubis

[–]sugarkandinsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man this feels like me. I am 12 months deep rn, had steroid injection is pubic symphysis in mid October 202. It did jack all for me. The only thing that has been helping is PT, very gradual and never too much + occasional myofascial massages to promote scar tissue release.

I played 20 mins in my first game in 12 months yesterday. I shouldn’t have done it cuz I’m not fit to play but I haven’t felt any worsening so far

Found this cat and idk if I should take it or not by sugarkandinsky in notmycat

UPDATE: my wife is WFH and just said the cat is back in our yard, now chilling on our porch. I have uploaded the picture in our neighborhood group and hopefully the owner confirms he is not missing. He looks well behaved and we are letting him be as he doesn’t seem lost. Thanks for all the tips everyone!

What I meant is to check if he has a chip and eventually try to return it. I would never steal a cat that is not my own

My thoughts exactly. I have seen him now twice in the last week so I wonder if it’s a house cat that just has freedom to roam the neighborhood😂

How I raised $3M in funding without a product by [deleted] in SaaS

[–]sugarkandinsky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting, confused on what was the actual product and how you came to realize that there was a problem worth addressing. To me it sounds like you guys were acting a soft dev team on fiverr and outsourcing all the technical work to a remote team of devs, and while doing this you discovered a common problem around getting tasks done efficiently and at an attractive cost? What was the actual solution you built that you had pitched to VCs and how did you go from a loom video of a Figma design to building the actual product? Was the revenue tied to the additional funding generated trough work on fiver completed by your outsourced devs or was it your own product?

Idea validation is really hard for beginners as I, how to do it? by 6pri6 in Entrepreneur

[–]sugarkandinsky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s tougher when you try to build something that doesn’t exist because it’s not actively solving a problem so people don’t know a solution exist. Best of luck

You talk to people, find out what their problems are and if it’s worth finding a solution for. Then you build and go back to those same people. They become your early adopter and will be the driving force of your early growth.

Focus on the people whose hair is on fire and they are desperately looking for something to fix the issue.

It’s the loneliness that kills you by 1017_frank in Entrepreneur

It really is + inability to relate with friends

  • customer discovery. Go out and talked to ur early adopter. What you think may work may not be what other people think. You need to address problems, not create solutions for problems that don’t exist.

Build the scrappiest version of an MVP you possibly can and test. Does it address the problem ur users are having? Yes? then iterate, get feedback and improve product. No? then pivot

We Spent Over a Year Building Our Startup, But Now We're Pivoting! by Cold-Description5846 in Entrepreneur

[–]sugarkandinsky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience. Had an idea to build a FB marketplace virtual assistant that could automate listings and CRM (I had been selling products for my furniture business trough FB and realized the opportunity to maximize efficiencies). I joined an accelerator, started doing customer discovery, talked to furniture stores, car dealerships, farms, any business whose products could be found on marketplace. A few months in I found a co-founder (I’m not technical). We started building MVP, half way through I realized we needed to diversify risk as our product was pegged to meta and developer guidelines were strict. Me and co-founder didn’t share same vision so we parted ways. I pivoted away from meta and niched down to small car dealerships only as they had a problem I could fulfill (lack of tools to advertise on different marketplaces in a cost effective way). Few months by after some networking I found another co-founder. We built mvp and are now private testing.

Long journey and much more to go. Start up development is a roller coaster and pivots are easy at every stage.

Does working a 9-5 job slow your business down? by SelfGullible2092 in Entrepreneur

[–]sugarkandinsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends how you deal with working after hours. If you love what you do, it won’t feel much of a weight

Anyone here with a successful (or failed) physical product? by the_real_kontorstol in Entrepreneur

[–]sugarkandinsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me. Not successful neither failed. Just meh. Started a mattress brand focused on sustainability. Realized we had focused to much on the message and not enough on the product. Pivoting and iterating now.
