It's official: The Mobile First Company has raised €3.5M at launch from Lightspeed, Emblem, and over 30 mobile industry leaders! The Mobile-First is much more than a company; it's a bet on the future that software will be mobile. And I've gone all in, joining the team as a Founding Member! We're going to do things quite differently from the SaaS ecosystem: 🎯  Focus on SMBs, the ones that drive the economy: plumbers, nurses, restaurants, service companies! 📱 We're set to launch about 20 products/apps. 💥  NO MORE ALL-IN-ONE! Our vision is to create ULTRA SIMPLE products for specific problems. 📈  We can test an app's success before coding it, inspired by the HyperCasual Gaming Framework. 💳  We plan to acquire our competitors or those who missed the transition to Freemium Mobile! 🌎  We're already in beta in the 🇺🇸 🇦🇷 🇨🇴 🇲🇽 🇨🇱, international from the start. I’m still impressed by the quality of our investors and business angels; we're one click away from getting expertise from MWM, Pennylane, PhotoRoom, Homa Games, Luni, Spendesk, Hexa/eFounders...

A person who hated a day job🙃 Fired from Facebook Failed multiple times on building software review site, software taco, co-registration software, and reward level, none of them has bought him paying customers Today? His company did $80M in sales($7M Profits) in the last FY. Also, he is the author of the "Million Dollar Weekend book". It's Noah Kagan, founder of AppSumo. Why did he start AppSumo? How to get paying customers for software creators? He copied Macheist a site that offers discounted software bundles for Apple users. Thus, AppSumo started over a weekend with $60 in 2010. Noah Kagan specialises in launching a seven-figure business in a single weekend—and he’s done it SEVEN times. he has built 8 businesses each worth +$1 million (Kickflip, Gambit, KingSumo, SendFox, Sumo, Tidycal, Monthly1K, AppSumo). And… Most were started in a single weekend. Three lessons I learned as an entrepreneur: 1. Start executing today, rather than planning 2. Be ready to accept rejections 3. Pivoting and trying new stuff is a better option rather than a failure #sharmilaspeaking #AI #Crm #SAAS #Revops #Sales #business

Ron's Weekly Update for 27 July. -- What did I do last week? - Hopped on a call with a Business Manager from a globally known e-commerce store builder for a potential partnership. - Finished the first draft of pricing and financial metrics for 2 years. - Talked to 3 potential customers. - Watched 7 videos of interviews with 7 billionaires in the Philippines. What did I learn? - I learned that my target audience has techphobia. I will explore this further as I talk to more of them. - I realized that for my product to be a profitable business, I need to help my customers build an online presence with competitive plans. This means I need to invest in making high-volume, close-win deals. Volume is ideal to hit my target audience. If I increase the pricing, I can potentially earn more, but it would defeat my mission to help micro and small store owners transition to an omnichannel solution. - I need to move fast and be more agile. My biggest challenge: - Stability of plan pricing in PHP currency against the stronger USD. - Reaching 316 potential customers and ensuring effective communication with them. - Time constraints—Christmas is approaching. Goals for next (this) week: - Put on hold the random sampling to a 315-sample size until I have talked to 10+ users, as my ideas and strategies will be more refined by then. - Propose to put on hold any meetings and development on the agreement between Lodel and the platform partner. I cannot determine the right pricing without talking to my potential users, and I can only talk to them if I know I'm doing things the right way. I believe the right way means going through the process and every step for the sake of quality, but I must do it with speed, which is very important. - Rewatch Athena's 1-hour startup course. - Start the "Pick an important problem" stage. I will continue to post weekly updates as I build my product. Stay tuned! #athenavc #ronvillegas
