Hi guys,
I was just wondering if you were someone who had little to no grounding in tech as a founder of a tech (mobile app) company. Would you direct your efforts into CS/learning how to program or would you develop your business acumen / softer skills, potentially considering an MBA in marketing? I have no intention of writing the program but hope to find a tech confounder who would or at least be able to liaise with a dev team.
TIA
Do you already have an app vision?
Me being you, I wouldn’t focus on anything but deeply understanding the problem that you’re trying to solve and how to reach your target audience. Everything else can be replaced by a developer/designer at some point.
Talk to people both competitors and prospects, figure out the distribution dynamics, and then build a prototype of what the app should be like. Once you know the market A-Z and are able to build some momentum/confidence, then commit to a co-founder.
If you don’t have that, I’d find it disrespectful to ask someone to commit their time and energy to your vision.
Thank you very much for your advice! I haven’t started anything properly yet, just doing market research at the moment. I was just prematurely trying to gauge what might be needed in the future.
