How many years of experience did you have before starting your own business?

0

More than 10 years.

3 Years

I started Requestly as a side project while I continued to work. I was having 5 years of experience by that time.

I started at 15, so I didn't even have work experience 😀

Near 5 years.

3 years.

I had 5.5 years of experience in the SaaS industry before I started my own business.

I was 20 and in college, so I suppose I had zero professional experience. However, I had soft experience with sales, etc., and bootstrapped for over 5 years, so that was my experience. Start soon, fail fast! https://www.producthunt.com/prod...

Started in college during undergrad. Major learning was that passion plays a key role towards running your own business. Starting early has numerous advantages. Failing fast, learning from it & being patient would be the key since when you are younger you did expect faster outputs while succeding in markets take time. Experience helps with bringing in knowledge which can reduce numbers of failures & how you process it
