I was curious peoples thoughts on starting a company doing services work first to gain clients, then move to being a product company?<p>Is this more challenge than its worth? Id love to hear peoples experience.<p>Thank you
I wrote a small thread on doing just that: <a href="https://twitter.com/jugurthahadjar/status/1310668293305499653" rel="nofollow">https://twitter.com/jugurthahadjar/status/131066829330549965...</a>
It's not the YC or typical VC way, but for certain industries - its basically one of the best ways to get going. Healthcare in the US and legal comes to mind. These profession promote for risk-averse behaviors, so selling a predictable service to them then going for a product makes sense.
