Runway is everything - but don't think only in terms of cash.
Consider your mental health runway too. Be pragmatic about the time you can put in especially in the early days - it may feel like it's 'all or nothing' now. In actual fact, it's all or nothing once you've got traction.
The last thing you want to do is let users down, so don't burn yourself before you've even reached the start line.
i think its crucial to validate your idea with real users as early as possible. Feedback from your target audience can guide you in refining your product effectively.
I’d advise building a strong network of mentors and advisors who can provide guidance and support. Their experience can be invaluable as you navigate challenges.
Hey @lewis_appre! One niche tip for a first-time founder: Focus on building a strong community around your product early on. Engage with your audience personally, listen to their feedback and make them feel valued. They'll become your biggest advocates! 😄e
