OMG, Your startup idea is so awesome
ok, it’s shit
tip: it’s not because of the idea
it’s because your idea needs execution
execution will unwrap your idea
execution will rip apart your idea
execution will prove your idea
your friends opinion of your idea means nothing
your mums opinion of your idea means nothing
your dogs opinion of your idea means nothing
no, I will not sign an nda to hear your
idea
there is no perfect idea
your idea is not unique
but your execution may be
here’s an idea: a drawing game amongst friends
pictionary did it.
pictionary sold for $29 million after 16 years.
draw something did it.
draw something sold for $210 million after 5 weeks. twitter.com/levie/status/182541851520270337
same idea different execution
stop idearating ‘iterating your idea’
start executing
how?
mvp how?
go lean startup
just build something please, i beg you
then you can tell me about your startup
OMG, Your startup idea is so awesome
