My aim is to start my Saas business in the next 6 months from now, and just seeing all your vlogs you are an inspiration to me to continue keeping on building my saas business. I appreciate
9:50 I mean it's possible but building a **software** company as solo non-technical founder is basically the second hardest way you can do things after trying to build a hardware company as solo non-technical founder. I wouldn't recommend to force getting a co-founder, just be aware that it's extra hard. It really starts even with hiring. Like how are you going to judge someone for example for a software engineer role, if you have no clue about software engineering? It's just really hard.
You do have a valid point about hiring, I have faced such challenges, but no challenge is impossible to overcome. It comes down to attitude and willingness to do what it takes to create a solution. Being any kind of founder is hard. I believe being a solo founder is only harder if you lack trust, don't know how to rely on others, and don't know how to ask for help/advice. I have a strong network of engineers in big tech/startups I can rely on if i really need to vet an engineer.
Hey I love your videos I myself aim in the beginning stages of starting a new StartUp. I love watching these types of videos. I wish you luck on your solo journey. Please let us know how much equity you are planning on giving to new team members and how you plan to vest it.
Another super interesting update, especially your insight on co-founder situation, I didn’t even know that so many of these YC type companies made that such a big thing.
Glad it was helpful! Yes, YC religiously preached it. I think they even released another video yesterday talking about it…but from the business co-founder side.

I'm glad to hear that it's helpful, and thank you for the wonderful wishes. I'll aim to cover this more in one of my upcoming videos.
Hi Pheora. I’m a UX designer and I have experience being a founding product designer, lmk if you need a CDO at any part of your journey. God speed!
It's tough to find cofounders, bcoz associating with strangers to build a company I find it's a crazy idea
It's risk for sure
