创业者的日子在 99% 的失败与 1% 的希望之间摇摆
1 分•作者: kathir05•大约 3 小时前
我和我的联合创始人过去 9 个月一直在创业。实际点说，大多数创始人在第一天的时候都并不清晰。我们也是如此。
最初的 4-5 个月，听着关于问题、解决方案、客户、价值等等的各种建议。我们明白了。仅仅有想法是不够的。客户、问题、解决方案、价值和定价的完美结合至关重要。在某个时候，我们意识到了这一点，并将我们的产品定位在这个结合点上。
下一个阶段是最艰难的。“为什么客户会选择你，而不是现有的类似工具？” 讲故事、SEO、着陆页等等，等等，但你仍然没有达到目标。
所有周围的建议到此为止。因为没有现成的方案可以解决这个问题。
这就是为什么大多数投资者都在寻找你产品的实际进展。想法 + 解决方案 + 实际进展 ~= 投资。
痛苦的日子就在这个阶段，“想法 + 解决方案 + 实际进展”，你内心真正的坚韧的创始人形象就在这里建立起来。
100 条私信，无人回复
10+ 次功能更新，无人回复
50+ 次演示通话，没有真正的转化。
你仍然不断改进、完善，并在 1% 的希望中挣扎，忽略 99% 的失败现实。
今天我们获得了 10 多个客户，但回过头来看，我们无法得出任何关于我们是如何走到这一步的逻辑结论，因为我们的旅程过去是、现在仍然在 90% 的失败和 10% 的希望的妄想悖论中摇摆。

I and my co-founder have been building my startup for past 9 months. Lets be practical, most founders don't have clarity at Day 0. Same goes for us.<p>Initial 4 - 5 months, hearing all those advices on Problem, solution, customer , value blah. We get it. Idea alone is not enough. Perfect junction of Customer, problem, solution, Value and pricing matters a lot. At some time, we realise this and we position our product in this junction.<p>Next stage is the toughest one. "Why would customer choose you over similar existing tools?". Story telling, SEO, landing page blah, blah, still you are not there yet.<p>All the surrounding advices stop here. Because no playbook exists to crack this.<p>Thats why most investor look for traction in your product. Idea + solution + traction ~= investment.<p>Painful days are those in this phase "Idea + solution + traction", is where real thick skin founder persona within you is built.<p>100 Dms, no response<p>10+ feature updates no response<p>50+ demo calls, no real conversion.<p>Still you keep refining, polishing and moving in paradox of 1% hope, ignoring 99% failure reality.<p>Today we got 10+ customers but, looking back we could not derive any logical conclusion on how we got here, because our journey was and still is now swinging in delusion paradox of 90% failure and 10% hope.
