Yes, we once had a more or less finished base product. But at that time my co-founder had to start doing sales so he shited his pants and suddenly invented a whole new addition that would surely sell.

I worked my ass off, and in the end when it was released, it turned out more than 90% of people only use the base product.

I think I'm still mentally recovering from that one and it it was the initiator for the spoiled relationship with the co-founder.

It takes courage to contact people, ask for a meeting and tell them what your plans are.

But it beats spending months working on something no one wants.

And every time you do it, it takes less courage.

Sorry to hear about your experience. I've felt your pain and it can be terribly discouraging. Couldn't agree more with your thoughts.
