So, we are a group of 3 guys (16m) who have been friends for a long time and we all have the ambition of starting a business together to save some money and then maybe buy a nice house by the sea one day. One of the other two guys and I are taking a full stack developer programming course and all three of us are studying the various dynamics of the world of investments. For some time we have been meeting about a possible business that we could start to set aside money to reinvest in our training and in creating new income. For now, little concrete has been done because we still don’t have enough experience in any field to be able to do something serious for now but we would still like to start something. We have some money set aside by working and with part of that we built a small home gym to train together and later we would like to expand it into a studio… So, what could we do to get involved?
Great question! and what an opportunity! you have so much time to try so many different things!
For me one of the pivotal moments was around when I took Steve Blank’s course on entrepreneurship (https://www.udacity.com/course/how-to-build-a-startup–ep245). The core of which is the premise that you don’t need an idea to start a business, but just a desire to help people solve their problems. You just pick an industry where you want to solve the problems and start interviewing industry leaders about their needs and problems. After which you will come away with ideas that might become a business. You do these interviews in batches of 50 and eventually will narrow down the problems that the industry is bothered with.
Happy to expand more in the DMs
