Adam Wathan of Tailwind UI says, “Want to find a good SaaS idea? Start a business, literally any business. You will soon realize how bad every existing tool is that you have to pay for to run that business, and you will quickly become overwhelmed by the number of things you feel you need to build yourself.”

My sense is that people who wish to reach customers some other way, like search engine optimization (SEO) or content marketing, are looking for an out. If that’s you: Stop! It doesn’t exist!

The most important thing is to set aside a dedicated amount of time every day and to begin.

If your product costs $10 a month, like Gumroad’s, you need two hundred customers.

Can I ship it in a weekend? The first iteration of most solutions can and should be prototyped in two to three days.

If you contribute, you will have ten times the presence of someone who doesn’t. And it will continue to grow from there.

remind yourself that if you have something to add, it’s selfish to keep it to yourself!

Do introduce vesting so that each of you earns your stock over several years.
