a day in the life of a networking event, $5K mentor quote & validated idea | startup vlog

I got quoted $5,000 for a business mentor. I said no. Instead I threw on an outfit grabbed a coffee, and went to a networking event. I’ve been sitting on this startup idea for 4 years. Four years of not being able to fully explain it, not having a clean elevator pitch, not being sure if it was even real. Then I walked into a room full of strangers and left with confirmation that the problem I’m trying to solve is real, the people are real, and the idea is worth building. Mark Zuckerberg said ideas don’t come out fully formed ..they only become clear as you work on them. You just have to get started. I’ve been getting started for 4 years and it’s finally starting to click. Show up. Wrinkled outfit and all.
