If you don’t know me and this is the first time you reading my article I am Jayson Dombele a 16-year-old entrepreneur who has founded Documented Press January 2016 and along with that, I am an app developer and a content marketer. If you want to see more of my work check the bio below the article (But, do it when you are done reading my article! It’s greatly appreciated!) I have been working on PitchUs for about 3 months now and I came from a long way. I have been through many up’s and down such as learning how to develop apps and finding the right resources and people to work with — it’s such a hassle. Now I have been wanting to start developing my app with a friend of mine because I just want to bring out another product to the world. What really kept me motivated was Documented Press success reaching 18.3k readers over the course of two years. So, I just really wanted to build my app! But, I came to realize that I could achieve much more if I pivot a couple things. One thing I learned from Documented Press was that I didn’t really know much about the side of it. business I, just liked writing about what’s going on in the world and loved technology so I put those two things together and boom luckily I got 18.3k? But couldn’t I have gotten more even faster? Of course, I could’ve! I just didn’t know what the f*ck I was doing. I was a 14-year-old entrepreneur without knowing it really. Product validation is what I was missing. I didn’t bother asking any people to give any feedback about the site. I just kept publishing as much as I can and did my best to cross-promote the site. I seemed to go the right way but in whatever you do you’d need to gather all the tools so you can squeeze out as many benefits you can. — Now, as a 16-year-old entrepreneur, I have now come back with an abundance amount of knowledge now and know how to play the game a little better. Lately, I been trying to find people to validate my product and find out if it’s something people would want and if I should pivot my idea? The problem is that I don’t even know where to start? I recently watched a video featuring the founder of Heray Spice (Mohammad) and he talks about how he constantly hustled for his business as he did door to door sales every day. Hustle Gurus show! Hustle Gurus Mohammad quota was to talk to 100 businesses a week. And, imagine that is door to door sales. No phone calls or any communication. Mohammad got me to think twice and go right back to finding potential costumers to validate my product. I came to learn that I don’t need to stop just because an obstacle got in the way. No matter how big or how small the problem is an entrepreneur should bulldoze through. Thank you for reading my article! Feel free to leave a comment or learn much more about me below!!
