Things I Learned
- I realized again how painful B2C startups are when trying to maximize profit over time
- Startups must start out solo then evolve over time to add more co-founders
- Having a full stack website template saves 10 days of work
- Having a full stack client acquisition template saves 10 days of work
- Before I go into my next challenge, I want to create a website template and client acquisition template that I can use for every project I have after this
- A startup can never have multiple end decision makers, there has to be just one
