Any entrepreneur can tell you, launching a startup is a learning process. Therefore, one of the best things you can do prior to launching a startup of your own is to learn from those who have blazed the trail. Cindy Jin, founder of metaverse startup Metapoly, shared valuable insights during our interview that will inspire and motivate aspiring entrepreneurs.
What advice do you have for aspiring entrepreneurs?
“Do not go down the path if you can’t take stress and failure. Aim high if you decide to jump into the entrepreneurial rabbit hole.”
What is the best method you’ve found to avoid burnout as an entrepreneur?
“Stay passionate and enjoy what you do. Keep your personal habits and find a good team that shares the same values and passion.”
What is your advice for coming up with a unique startup idea?
“Create value and have solutions for a fundamental problem in a certain area. This is a surefire way to ensure that your product or service will be successful.”
What is your advice for overcoming challenges and failure?
“VCs may not always be right, but if your product or idea has a product-market fit, the users will validate it for you. Many Web3 startups have demonstrated that they are able to self-fund their projects through bootstrapping via a token sale or NFT sale. You should also be agile and flexible when encountering challenges.”
What is the biggest lesson you learned and what can aspiring entrepreneurs take from it?
“It’s not easy, but finding a good partner will make your entrepreneurial life much easier.”
