Ask HN: YC Application – 0 Video Views Our application still has 0 views in the introduction video. With just 6 days away from the results, I am inclined to think we are not gonna be in the shortlist. If you were rejected in one of the previous application cycles, did you also have 0 views? If yes, this could be a good way of "getting the result before its announced" :) All the best to everyone who applied! |
This is my first time applying at YC, but in past I have helped raised funds for other companies outside. Last year I started my company and tried to raise funds.
After a while, instead of raising funds or spending too much time in hoping to get on incubators or VCs' list I started to stay focus on the product development. So not raised any outside funds so far however my product 1.0, then 1.3 and now 1.5 is out in the market and getting real users' feedback and polishing the product.
The bottom line is don't lose attention and focus from your product and plan out for 6, 12 and 18 months out with plan A and B, in my case, also plan C.
So rather do something more useful?
So, If not this time there's always next time bud. Good luck!
