| By @austinngo [ 2 Min read ] At 24, I’m holding to my aspiration of becoming a founder, but the path has been anything but smooth — I quit my job in Feb, yet already started building my product for months with my friends Private Beta launch in last November, lots of grinding and got first early users. Public Beta launch in Feb, was a blast, number of users spiked exponentially. But amidst the euphoria I faced the brutal fact, still made 0 dollars effectively. This is because we offered free version to test the market first. We are fully bootstrapped, not having millions to burn. Quickly implemented the pricing system and started to accept payment. 2 days after that, a glimmer of hope appeared, we got the 1st monthly subscription user!.. |
