How much time have you invested on your startup idea?

Been spending ~2 hours per day for the past 12 moths on Newsy http://newsy.co - not yet profitable, but generating revenue. 💪

For the latest one, https://thepodosphere.com probably been percolating for over a year. Finally getting ready for an MVP

Last three years I launched at least 4 ideas. You get super handy with putting together the website, landing page, MVP, etc. So every time you start, it takes less time. For me it's a great way to try new things as a hoppy. But early 2020, I transitioned to full-time working on https://mobilocard.com 5 months after launch. There was an inflection point where I saw that if I would put 100% of my time in it, I could at least pay for rent. Fast forward to today, our product has been used 186,000 times in 137 countries and we are a team of 14.

I haven't slept in 36hrs since we started our launch, and haven't had a real salary in 3 years. Lots.. everything... but it's also kind of a life choice. Life = mission. Never found that with a salaried job, but could be I just worked in the wrong places :)

Hey José, I have changed my mind multiple times thought the years on this. Read about it too much too. Well with the tech space evolving so much there are 2 approaches I usually take. If you are disruptive and you try to solve something new then, time to market, MVP and not a lot of time is my approach. But if you are trying to solve an old problem, then usually, the product/service will need a lot of time. We launched Airdesk today and we were under the radar for 3 years. Not investing enough time was just not an option.

Startups could take your skin away, hell of a lot effort is required in the beginning, Apple developers in early stage lost their girl friends, broke their marriages and much more....So be prepared and don't lose hope

Days, Months, Years. It's been a long ride and it don't stop here. :)

All of it, everyday.

Coloban - 2 years in a row and not going to stop :) With every new feature everyone loves it just more and more Never thought the work can be fun until started to use it actually, ha-ha :)

Just passed the 2 year milestone... incorporated in Nov '18, worked on designs Jan-Mar, started development Apr '19, launched Alpha Aug'19, and we've been iterating since. 2020 was a challenging year with a few setbacks, but now we're gearing up for a massive update in Mar '21. We're not profitable, but generating some early revenue.
