Entrepreneurship and Business Management

To make users abandon a long-used competitor and choose you, there's essentially one reason: they are "unhappy" with their current solution, there's a "pain point" that hasn't been addressed, and you ...

This is a classic question, one that almost every engineer who wants to build something of their own has asked themselves. First off, it's completely normal to have this thought, and even a good thing...

This question is actually a nagging concern for anyone looking to make a mark in the tech industry. My take is: absolutely, you can survive, and even thrive, but only if you clearly understand your ni...

这个问题，估计是每个想自己干点事的人，晚上翻来覆去睡不着时都会问自己的。这事儿没有标准答案，但可以从几个角度帮你捋一捋，看看你的“不同”到底够不够硬。 1. Is your "difference" truly "better," or just "different"? Being "different" is too easy.

This is an exceptionally good question, arguably one of the core issues one must clarify before starting a business. Many people, upon seeing a market already dominated by giants or several comfortabl...

Hey there, buddy. That's a great question, and it's a point where many tech-savvy folks tend to overthink when they first start a business. Don't overcomplicate the idea of "competitors," and don't ju...

Buddy, this is a classic question, one that every engineer who's ever wanted to build something of their own has probably asked themselves late at night.

Of course it's possible, but it's not something that can be rushed or forced. It's more like planting a tree than flipping a light switch. The term "tap water" (referring to spontaneous, organic promo...

This needs to be looked at in stages; you can't generalize. Think of it this way: you've opened a small noodle shop. Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC): This is how much you spend to get a new customer t...

Buddy, that's a great question, it shows you've reached the crossroads between 'working in isolation' and 'putting it out there.' First, the conclusion: Dare to, and you should.

Yes, absolutely, and it's a very clever dissemination strategy. Let me give you an analogy, and you'll understand. Imagine you've developed a secret recipe for a "super sauce" that tastes exceptionall...

当然能。这个问题问到点子上了，很多工程师都会有这个困惑。 咱们得先换个思路：代码本身不直接等于增长，代码是用来创造“产品”或“解决方案”的工具，而能被很多人使用的“产品”或“解决方案”才能带来快速增长。 你花一个月写了个功能，自己用，价值是1。 你花一个月写了个功能，做成产品卖给一万个人，价值就是一万，甚至更多。 你看，你写代码花的时间是一样的，但增长速度天差地别。

Man, your question is a classic. Almost all founders with a technical background start their first product with "I need something like this." First off, I have to say, this is absolutely a good thing,...

Hey, that's a great question, one that many tech and product friends have pondered. I've been active on HN for many years, so let me put it this way: Going viral on Hacker News is like winning thunder...

Buddy, we need to think this through carefully, don't be impulsive. Signing a three-year contract is a bit like renting an office for three years – it has its pros and cons.

Buddy, if you had this idea a few years back, you would've been riding the wave. Just write a whitepaper, shout a few slogans about decentralization and disrupting the future, get a few big names to e...

Bro, this problem really hits home. It's practically a "tale of blood and tears" every indie developer goes through. When I first started my own small product, I'd stare at the bills every day, my hea...

This question hits the nail on the head, and it's something every engineer who dreams of going solo secretly worries about. Let's get straight to the answer: Whether you max out your credit card depen...

Buddy, you've hit the nail on the head with this question. It's something every product person has grappled with. The answer is simple: it entirely depends on how much you charge them and how 'heavy' ...

Buddy, you've hit on a crucial point, a hurdle every aspiring product person has to ponder. There's no absolute good or bad between these two models.
