You started your business to run it, not to be everything in it.

DIY is expensive. Not in money — in energy, growth, and sanity. It costs you time, energy, and momentum — the three things your business can't afford to waste.

Outsourcing isn’t a cost. It’s a shortcut to results.
You free up time, get expert-level output, and finally stop asking GPT “how to…” every 5 minutes.

So no, you're not lazy for hiring help.
You're just finally acting like an Entrepreneur.

Just wanted to quickly say, that I feel so depressed and hopeless, especially with my life sucking job at this big 4. BUT I feel a little better knowing I’m not alone. It gets hard when my culinary teacher and digital design friends can’t relate to how demanding our jobs can get and then I look at my coworkers who seem to have it all. So this feels like a safe space!

Hi everyone, I got terminated from my job a month ago and trying to find a position in management. I recently got approved for UI benefits so that’s helping. I have about 3 solid years of corporate experience. I’m a single 30 year old male looking to get back into the workforce remotely or onsite. I was passed up for a couple of manager positions and seeeing no luck. I’m in Massachusetts and the rising living costs are not helping. Just reaching out to see if there any leads.

Hi folks, I am working with a few friends on a fintech idea. I opted to build the marketing roadmapping strategy for the soft launch/prototype phase as I want to learn about the field. Any guidance where should I start? Any guidance, books, topics will be helpful 😊

I've been asked to provide a start-up life sciences co. with reccos for D&O insurance. Does anyone have any reccos to share?

What sort of decisions you make as an executive after analyzing P&L statement?

Friends, need some feedback on an idea:

I’m thinking of starting a podcast interviewing leaders at startups about their experience with specific challenges - I know, cliche, get a more original hobby, etc.

Not looking for the narrative arc of How I Built This or Masters of Scale. Instead, looking to uncover specific problems faced by companies that tried something new for the first time. What did they not see coming, how did they adapt and measure, etc.

What are your thoughts on this format?

Hi guys, I am offering bookkeeping services at competitive rates and am available ASAP! If you or anyone you know are looking for a bookkeeping solution, DM me! Thanks!

Anyone have experience in raising capital out of the Middle East (Jordan, Kuwait, SA)? Any experience in delivering solutions in that area? I am trying to figure out if a pursuit in that area is to much of a risk. Any insight is appreciated.

How do vesting schedules typically work for LLCs giving interest to an advisor?

Scoping out a new role. If anybody knows of a Chief of Staff role at a startup/scale up, please let me know. UK based and ideally remote or South West. Thanks

I need everyone’s help😭 Money aside, how did you finalize which idea to pursue? I’m struggling to narrow it down from 4. Focusing is not an issue for me once I’m locked in, but I’m struggling to get there because I haven’t finalized which idea to focus on. Open to any recommendations please (books, personal stories, etc).

How do you pick a startup to work for? How do you make the bet it’s going to grow or fail? I’m told I should pursue startups but I’m admittedly nervous about getting hired to one that fails and being jobless. I’ve worked for big companies that don’t grow or fail rapidly - it’s all pretty steady.

I have a business idea in the VR/AR space utilizing AI. However, I lack skill sets to evaluate viability or to create an MVP. Neither do I have a network to tap into.

My plan is taking classes to deepen my knowledge while joining and actively participating in communities to find collaborators.

Does this approach make sense or do you recommend other approaches? If it makes sense, do you have any recommendations for classes or communities?

Look forward to hearing your experiences and wisdom!

Hi! I have many years of experience in Compensation and Benefits (HR) strategies to attract, retain and motivate talents in big corporations. I want to find a way to bring solutions for startups and entrepeneurs that are already in the need of such support for their own companies. I want to find ways to bring meaningful and practical solutions at reasonable costs for these organizations. Any ideas on how to become aware of their specific needs? C&B, talent management, performance appraisal.

Hello!
I am new here and would love to get some likes, so I can DM people. Thanks :)

I started a company just under 1 year ago. We sell a product via ecom channels and have done ~100K in revenue with a 60% gross margin.

The first 6 months I was working a full time job. I quit my job to focus on the business full time, and have since depleted my readily available capital. I’m bootstrapping the business with my own funds. I was recently offered a job in my old industry for 80K per year. I was previously making 62K.

Should I take the job?

So, I just joined a startup. No processes, no clear strategy, just one goal: selling. Getting leads. When ever I try to build a strategy, they (founders) swamp me with blablabla stories and not a single action plan. Is this the usual at startups? Also,no real company culture. At all. No HR. I am reaaaally struggling to get a sense of belonging here. What should I expect?? Tia

Any entrepreneurs here had angel investors actually invest in your company? If so, how did you find them and how did it go?
