The same for me, I would love to talk more and see about joining this team.

Assuming you have a slightly more defined business plan than that, I’d love to talk and potentially pitch in my skills. I am decently technical myself.

I don’t think I’d be a great addition to this project myself (I don’t know much about coding), but I would enjoy hearing about how it goes.

I want to build a company that utilizes Chat-GPT for a variety of personal and business assistant purposes–think scheduling, email writing, and more. Products would be grouped by use type and follow a monthly subscription model. I’m lightly technical but would love some help on the programming side of things, as while as on the general business…

I like the idea, but I don’t get how this differentiates itself enough from something like Notion.

Well this now sounds a lot different in the wake of the FTX crash. If you ended up pursuing this, has that affected you?

Would love to hear about this as well. It seems like the market has shifted a lot since you originally posted this, but could also have created a great opportunity in doing so.

Revisiting this thread now and definitely second this advice. Always easier to plant solid roots and scale with a niche store than a general one.

Hey Ashley, curious how this turned out after you built it? I very much like the concept but it also seems admittedly difficult to execute on.

That’s awesome and definitely also something I’ve learned from trying out e-commerce. Especially for those just getting started, it’s almost always smarter to try to find an impact in a more niche area rather than trying to fight it out in a saturated, established niche. But definitely a great way to learn and glad to hear you’re ready to try it out again!

I built the store and I ended up running it for a while before eventually shutting it down. I learned a lot but I simply found it hard to ever make meaningful profits. If I do it again I’ll probably go into a less competitive niche, I’ve now learned firsthand just how saturated the pet industry is.

Just adding my name here to agree, Noah. Especially with regards to the pet niche and its boom during the pandemic, I’d love to hear your insight.

Nicholas said it perfectly. I’m not going for the largest piece of the pie, but I’m going for a piece that should be dedicated enough to sustain a decent-sized venture.

What benefits would you realistically be able to offer though? Keep in mind you’re a cash-strapped startup and other companies have thought of these possibilities too.

Would love to hear this too! I’m thinking about getting into e-com and it would be really helpful to hear some successes/lessons learned from building businesses on here.

Hey, I’m curious how this has been going if you ended up building it?

I don’t think it’s the largest market, but I do think there’s enough of an audience where she could make something work.
