SaaS founders believe adding "one more feature" will magically bring in 1,000 users.

It won’t.

If people aren’t buying your core product, they won't buy it because you added a dark mode or a new dashboard.

Stop coding and fix your positioning.

@thenowhereway Our ex-colleagues were our initial users.

It really helps when you build a solution for a pain point you experienced at your job.

@pmitu Even if it is not successful it will change you for better

[Rohan Rane @RohanShips]

@TTrimoreau Most of these mistakes are due to ignoring market research before building

If you have researched the market thoroughly the chances of success go up

E-commerce is not a "set-and-forget" business.

It is a game of managing frozen cash (inventory), dealing with supply chains, and handling customer returns.

If you want an easy life, don't open a store.

If you want to build a real, high-value asset, put the work in.

@siddharthwv The bar is low for building; it is still high to decide what to build, and how to market it.

@sharran People who do vibe checks and want to "feel" ready can't become entrepreneurs

They can't take rejections and in an entrepreneur's life there are more rejections

Quit only after the side hustle is bringing at least 70% of your current salary

Build a safety net then jump, taking blind risks don't work very well in business

[Paul Mit @pmitu]

don't quit your job to build a startup:

>> use weekends and nights instead
>> try to reach $3k MRR
>> prove the idea for future scaling
>> don't put yourself in stress without money

@garyvee Care for your brand, your customers, your employees, and your vendors

@RobHoffman_ I have seen people offering free plans in b2b , it's the fastest way to shut the shop

[Rohan Rane @RohanShips]

@pmitu Solid advice👍

Quit only after the side hustle is bringing at least 70% of your current salary

Build a safety net then jump, taking blind risks don't work very well in business

[Rohan Rane @RohanShips]

@TTrimoreau Most overrated is funding

A few friends of mine think you can't start without external funds

Funds are needed if you have objectives that can't be achieved without it, but that doesn't mean every business needs it

SaaS founders; what is your current growth bottleneck?

Getting traffic to the landing page ?

Turning visitors into free trial users ?

Turning free users into paying customers ?

@boardyai Your network is your networth!

[Rohan Rane @RohanShips]

@sharran The worst part about being emotionally inconsistent is, it ruins both professional as well as personal lives

[Rohan Rane @RohanShips]

@Jbm_dev Bad hires are the worst, they can sink the company in no time

[Rohan Rane @RohanShips]

@BratDotAI If the side hustle is bringing at least 70% of your current salary then one should quit

Never take blind risks, always have a safety net
