Hi @Grapevine team and Community marketing enthusiast who have worked on 0-1/1-10, We are building a community app related to dating and figuring out unpaid marketing channels what will work or not since we don’t have much money to do paid marketing. How did you started grapevine and manage community effects, did you go to paid channels? Do you believe in grow fast or die or growing slow in community apps is also fine since credibility comes with size of community. What are the effective channels we can explore apart from twitter and instagram? Members even if you don’t have idea please like the post to get it highlighted it will be great help for us❤️

Hear me out here, Starting up is much more than idea PMF MVP CAC capital etc There are so many basic paperwork questions - how to register company, GST, what all funds can government help with, how to get them, what startup programs Or behavioral questions - friends coming to build business, insecurity, anxiety, non - business backgrounds, job to business journey The top customers are here Many founders too, people who have built companies from scratch Founders who have failed and yet not given up First time founders who built it big, navigating inevitable issues These basic questions could be very helpful

I'm working on a fintech B2C idea and need some advice. It's quite a complex idea, in a regulated industry (of course). I'm fairly good at developing apps (self taught web and mobile app dev) and currently working alone on this. I'm planning to use Flutter and GO to create the MVP. I'm experienced in Flutter but have no idea about GO. Currently working remotely (not enough savings to work on the idea full time). Need some suggestions on: 1. Should I learn GO or use ChatGPT or GitHub Copilot? 2. Since it's a fintech product (a highly regulated industry), how scrappy can I be regarding building and launching the MVP asap? 3. I've not worked in fintech, although I was a co-founder before (failed startup). Should I rather focus on building and launching the product by doing it all myself or take some time into looking for a co-founder? 4. I know that this is something that just cannot be bootstrapped (navigating in the grey areas of regulations, lobbying etc). Should I just put my head down and hustle it out till product launch or do I start looking to raise capital? Any angels or VCs that will actually fund an idea (especially in these times)? Just looking to make better decisions by getting some opinions/suggestions/advice! Questions and thread discussions are most welcome! Grapevine, do your thing 😤
