Start a poultry farm. 100 murgi ke 400 ande. Make omlettes, make breads. Hire a consultant to make PPT, valuation slides etc. Use some McKinsey reports to show that India has a huge potential for egg eaters in the coming 3-5 years. You start now and build a trusted brand that every Indian believes. Raise rs.100cr, raise rs.1000cr. and one day you exit.

If half the valuations out there are based on McKinsey reports then those fucks are doing it wrong and are bound to be dommed.

They use 3 to 4 ways to estimate/justify market size and growth rates.

Analyst

Director Product

No legacy, simply a primary key in employee table

Digital Accessibility Technologist

Start with market research and surveys. 
  
 Once you have at least 100 positive responses affirming the need for your product, make an MVP using low/no code tools and start selling. 
  
 Make sure to balance the unit economics and gross/net profit well enough so you don't burn money. It's fine to charge high initially and lower costs over time. Aim for minimal investment in terms of cash and profitability as early as possible. 
  
 Get to 10 customers, then 100, then 1000. 
  
 Revenue milestones are 10k, 1 lakh, 10 lakhs, 1Cr. 
  
 Keep iterating and improving along the way. Don't keep any timelines in your mind for milestones, just know that you need to reach the next one. 
  
 Motivation will increase over time as revenue and customers increase. All the best with it.

Generalist

Starting a startup is like committing suicide.. one cannot plan it.. its momentous, an instant decision that is taken.  
 If you plan to luanch it wutha tine period in mind. You will never do it.  
 If you really want to go on your own. The best time is now.

Startup ka naam aisa hona chahiye jo fatak se muh se nikle.

Motivate me to Start-up

Motivate me to Start-up- Grapevine

I understand if someone is asking this question, the person isn't ready. But would like to know from founders, what was your motivation ? What pushed you over from a 9-5?
Is it just taking a bet on yourself and working towards solving the problem?

When should one startup ?

Software Engineer

1. I am having a strong problem statement, which is thoroughly validated, along with a business plan, but I am not working or starting it as I lack confidence because I don't have a team in place.

( I am an IIM graduate and currently a product manager - giving these details just to get a sense of my background, which might help in the type of suggestions from your side).


2. How can I find a co-founder/partner/core team member? Please advise me on where to look for co-founders or people that share a similar mindset.

What’s the one big motivation that makes you work for a startup?

Drive to part of a startup

Program Manager

Im working as a developer in a unicorn startup with good salary for my age. But from college time I was interested in entrepreneurship trying different thing and later after completing college I joined this unicorn and worked hard, shifted to their new stealth startup and worked there with for 1yr, tried to work in every possible opportunity that I got with design team, product managers and learnt how to build a startup from scratch, but later due to creative issues in top level management and less revenue than the competitors the startup was shutdown and I was moved back to the unicorn and again started working as an developer. Tried different things from then 

1. Tried joining top B schools but couldn’t afford
2. Tired pitching ideas to friends, seems like no one interested in taking risk leaving the life they have now
3. Tried starting few things on my own but always end up failing with no support 
4. Tried attending conferences but that too never led me anywhere

Now don’t have as many friends interested in entrepreneurship or mentors to guide me. Just passing the days doing the same work again and again

please suggest me what to do next or give me any kind of advice

Hi all,

I almost mid 30s and been in Bangalore for 2.5 years. I believe I must build a steady second income in the next 6/7 years. Dont get me wrong , i like working - and intend to do that for as long as I can , but my new employment choices may decrease with time.
Yet , have no idea what I want to do.

I like technical work but am not insanely intelligent - just average.

Would want some feedback on how to motivate myself.

I have some self diagnosed weaknesses

* I am not unpleasant to talk to - but dont make or interested in making a lot of friends and interacting with people (still have not made any new friends here)

Lazy definitely :)

Motivate oneself to start second income

Test Engineer

How do I start 
1. To check if it's viable
2. It's in B2C space and can be extended to B2B also ( but lots of competition in B2B but not B2C due to independent small firms)
3. I am from tech background so I can handle that but the idea need operations and few domain experts
4. I will have to leave my current job since I am working in a startup, all 6 days 10+ hours. How much run away should I be sure of, before jumping full time into it.

Suggestions! I have a startup idea

What are your reasons to not start up, in case you wanted? What challenges you know of and still started?

Deterrent for starting up
