I am at the stage when I want to formally move my business to a foreign country (for example, to take advantage of better tax conditions, fees, etc.). Which country offers the easiest way to start a business, ideally to set up everything electronically (without unnecessary bureaucracy, where they ask you to show up physically. It feels like a pain in Europe) The more information (and advantages), the better.
But companies are still opening internships, which suggests something deeper than just skill-building still matters (like understanding systems, workflows, and how companies actually operate the management part).
Back when I worked in advertising agencies as an idea maker and copywriter (creative), I cared a lot about my CV and portfolio (honestly, I wanted to include almost every project I worked on, as many things as possible).
But whenever I wanted to add something, I realised that many of those projects were team efforts and not entirely my own.
This feels like a hard balance, especially for products that need a bit of context.
If the landing page explains too much, it can start to feel heavy. If it explains too little, people may sign up without really understanding the problem, the use case, or why the product matters.
I ve seen products where the tool itself is good, but the first reaction is still: I don t get it yet.
For makers here, what do you try to make clear before signup, and what do you leave for users to discover inside the product?
People always say they want simple products. Bloat is a big reason people dislike products and migrate away from existing tools. But I don't think that bloat comes from having too many features. Instead, it's mostly a UI/IA problem.
This is something we think about a lot at @Basedash. Analytics and BI can get complicated quickly: permissions, SQL, charts, dashboards, filters, joins, data sources, teams, sharing, alerts, and so on. We can t remove all of that complexity, because real teams eventually need it. Instead, we're trying to figure out how/when to reveal that complexity. Filters only appear if you ask the AI. Access controls can get super fine-grained, but only if you start inviting more teammates.
Hey Makers! I've been running my Telegram channel about products and startups for over a year now. It already has 1,100+ subscribers. It's in my native language. I recently started the same channel but in English. I find answers to questions about startups and products from people with a lot of experience in that field and write summaries. Join the Startup Summary on Telegram if you're interested: https://t.me/startupsum
In todays age we get stressed way to fast and retain Anxiety way to easily thru the day. I think we can share with each-other all the different strategies that help us let go in these types of situations. Please name anything that works every time in helping you destress and relax?
Everyone here has a primary skill or a field of knowledge they're versed in. What I'm interested in is are you working on sharpening any additional skills or are you committed to working on what you're confident with. In my case, development was where I started many years ago, but currently, I'm trying to improve my writing skills!
