Did you just copy and paste this from ChatGPT? You think I haven't tried this before... I literally just wrote that in my OP.

Zero is by the Replicache team and they are really nice guys. I've interacted with Aaron Boodman quite a bit in their Discord and he was very responsive and helpful, and took a lot of my comments into consideration in improving the pro

It's cool to see some progress on aural migraines. In the past I tried zolmitriptans for it but they don't do much, same with milder pain killers. My migraines started at 20, two decades ago. I remember the first one like it was y

Thank you. I would love to build something to make trials easier to find by the patients themselves, so you don't have to wait for the bureaucracy to kick in.

So... What's the hack?

LOL I love it, they will think you're a scammer trying to get their bank info and you get a free call out of it. The hustle is real.

It sounds great and motivating, but what was your field? I feel doctors to be less than enthusiastic about engaging with people outside of their circle, especially if I ask for help about doing a startup. It's weird but I feel like a l

Thank you! I tip my hat to you for being successful in this difficult space.

Where were you in 1999 when all I had was a crap snake on my TI-89?

From a practical standpoint, do you just wait until they hit you up later asking for their money?

I've actually thought of doing IT services for clinics as a means to get a foot in the door. That's some seriously deep undercover stuff... Very time consuming (could be worth it regardless). Were you getting paid for the IT servi

Thank you. YES on a lot of your bullet points. But I'm very open-minded about it and would work on any issue if enough people raise it. I've been thinking of reaching out to nurses and other pros that work around docs. I like the

It's something I used to do internally at my previous employer, and I know it's very useful. In this case I would have to convince a doc to let me follow them around and that's an immense ask. It's also going to miss sys

I like your suggestion and it sounds like it would work great for certain cohorts, but not so sure about docs. I can see employing this tactic in a conference though. But that's more of a phase 2 thing when you already have a handful o

I do not want to incentivize people to give me BS feedback just to get paid. If they need money or a gift to tell me about their pain point, it's not a pain point.

by yr1337 2y ago
You hit the nail on the head on BOTH points. They do not trust me (why would they) and they think it's a sales tactic. I couldn't be purer in my intentions, but people are on the defensive. And your pain point is actually one I&#x

Reviewing my numbers I would say it seems closer to 0.5% at this point. You made good points for the stage that you're in, i.e. you already have a solution that you can sort of pitch upfront (even seeding the conversation is a version

I can't wait to engage with dieticians. I feel like I need more bashing in my life :-)

Yeah I'm in the toughest phase of idea extraction. Which is: hey I want to talk to you but I have nothing to say, YOU do the talking. That's CRAZY hard, especially on LinkedIn (the low hanging fruit I admit). I already extracted a

Yes, looking into that for sure.

I have been thinking of conferences, this sounds like a dream-like setting for this. I'm early in my journey but last I checked those are THOUSANDS of dollars to attend. Did you have some pointers on hacks to get in for free? Which org

Could be that as well. Maybe someone else will chime in with their numbers so I can get a reality check. I'm doing everything almost manually right now so it's not efficient.

Thanks for the PDF. Generally, I try to set up Zooms because it's a great back-and-forth. In-person meetings would be insanely good just for the human factor, but docs aren't into that it seems.

by yr1337 2y ago
Yeah I totally get that. Which is why I made it a point to really not sound like a salesman, but people are wired to be suspicious no matter what. I was able to interview a few people and I consider them heroes because against all odds, the

I'll check Steve Blank out (didn't know him), but I've been trying to follow this technique ad-hoc. Like you said, easier said than done. Even friendly people aren't very responsive to requests for intros. In the few int

When you see how much of a massive everything-bubble we were (are?) in, I can see where people are coming from on this one. Time to get some sanity back into this economy, and the people who will hurt the most are those who also benefited t
