"Startup tales" - falling down the Rabbit's hole

"Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to", said the Cat.
"I don't much care where,..." said Alice.
"then it doesn't matter which way you go", said the Cat.

Alice Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll.

Sometimes finding the way might be difficult, but if we keep in mind where we want to go we'll be sure to get there eventually. Same goes for businesses, we are currently in a really early stage as a startup but the excitement and the vision is so strong that we don't want to spoil the moment by thinking too much about the risks and problems ahead.

Don't get me wrong, we are taking in consideration all the good and bad that might happen but number one rule is plan for the worst, hope for the best. One think is for sure, if the outcome of our venture is not successful is not going to be for lack of talent in our team. 

Personally I have failed in more than one venture and I have learnt a lot from those. But it's the first time I have the chance to team up with outstanding people and that is going to turn the odds in our favor. It's true that by definition those odds are against us... who cares? we are falling dawn the rabbit's hole and enjoying every second. Even small little things like setting our email accounts are reasons to be excited. 

We want to help professionals to be connected, to save their time, to be more efficient. Isn't that a good value proposition? Let's see if we can communicate it well.

How many events do we attend in a year? How long does it take to find the right people in those events? Who is currently attending?

We are creating a tool that anyone with a LinkedIn profile can use. We want to help our users to search, find and discover networking opportunities,.... in real life.


and that from our point of view,...it's freaking cool
