Thanks for watching!💝What did you think of the test? Would you take it with your partner? Let us know in the comments!👇
A great video!! I found it insightful for a person who is just getting started in the startup world. I have one question, maybe you guys can share your thoughts: I have an idea in the Fintech space, validated it, checked the feasibility with the regulations, now I am confused as to what to do next. Also, do I need an MVP to raise funds?
MVP may not always be necessary, but definitely a great sign, as it proves a few points. 1. your team's ability to execute 2. your idea actually has a need and solves a pain point in the market 3. your speed in iteration VC's/Angels like to invest in the highest probability of success. MVP gives a check mark on that. At the same time, if your idea is sound, services a big enough market, has a strong founding team, you can still raise with simply an idea/deck. On that note - curious to know how did you validate your idea?
Your pitch deck matters more than you think! For more business tips, don’t forget to like and subscribe! If you found this relatable, drop a comment below-we’d love to hear your thoughts!

Thank you all for watching! What’s one tip from the video that you’re most excited to use in your pitch deck? Share below!👇
HR is NOT technical and is the most Boringess and UN_SEXIEST thing. Don't freaking try to promote your wife lying dude.
I used to believe I was more productive in the office, but after 2 years of remote work and then 1 year of 100% of time in the office, I'm clearly more productive at home. As a developer taking mental breaks is essential for actually solving problems, it was much easier to do that because I could "leave" the office room, get a context change and then come back and quickly solve that problem I was stuck on. In the office I felt stressed to stick around at my desk and often times would "spin out" on a problem for a longer period of time and couldn't get a proper context change because where inside or outside of the office.
100% - I dont think we realize how much of a mental break working from home offered until there was this option to. As long as you're accountable for your work, and trust the team to be accountable, then how someone manages their time and work to show up as their best self and show up with their best work should be left to them to choose - Cass
@@2kids1startup Outside of development type work, is there a challenge with how to keep remote workers accountable? In development, in my experience, that was one of the easiest problems to solve. Every two weeks we have a planning session. There, we weigh out our work load and allocate each task ahead of time. Because we weigh the tasks as a team, we have an agreed upon "time to completion" and assumption that we finish all of our tickets, with some leeway. We keep each other updated once in the late morning on a super quick 15 min session if there are any blockers, things we are struggling with, or if we are getting done with things quicker reaching out to help overs or take on more work.
Oh, RUclips recommended this to me😅
