One thing that's better than "catchy startup advice" (someone telling you what to do) is reading/listening what someone DID.<p>I've been trying to get to the next level and summarize such experiences (on startup acquisition channels [1]) for over 2 years and I can say that you start noticing patterns after reading/speaking to 100+ founders. They repeat the same mistakes/learn the same lessons (for example, a lot of people in SaaS realized late that they could charge much more than they thought) and so on.<p>If I'd have to rate the usefulness of advice, it would be (from least to most useful):<p>a) Someone telling you what to do based on their experience<p>b) Someone telling you what to do based on their + observing other experiences (the more, the better)<p>[1] <a href="https://firstpayingusers.com" rel="nofollow">https://firstpayingusers.com</a>
