Knowing when to quit is the best skill you can learn.Here is a story of how I took money from Jason Calacanis and failed with my startup.In November 2020 I cold emailed Jason.(stick around to see the actual email)We hop on a call and then after a few weeks of due diligence, he invests.-A small pre-seed check and a spot in LAUNCH Accelerator.Things were going great for us! We got customers and traction.Although then I later realized that I was running my company as an agency, not as a startup that could ever scale.-And this hit us hard. We’ve tried to find a scalable solution and just see some sights of PMF (product-market fit).Nothing worked and I found 4 different startups that tried to do something similar and failed.-They failed for the same reasons we’re failing. Lack of scalability.So we did what everyone should do.-TALK TO CUSTOMERS. (famous words preached by Jason)We did a lot of calls. Hundreds.-And after like 500 calls in a 6 months span. We’re decided to pivot.An idea came from being on a lot of calls with startup founders, sales pros, and leaders.-Now we’re building Intro. A tool that saves you time on pre-call research.If you’re on a lot of sales calls, customer dev calls - this will save you hours!-Check us out on Product Hunt today!https://ift.tt/37gyDux see hubwealthy.com/wealthy
