Reader, Build your startup in 6 months reading 5-min reports

Hey Reader,

You would have realised that my mail has reached your inbox later than usual. My apologies for that. But I have a valid reason for this.

I bring you another big project from my side: No-VC. The promise is simple yet again - Build your startup in 6 months by reading 5-min reports. A tutorial for every step of your startup journey, written succinctly. No nonsense.

Why?
Before explaining the "why", here is my first tutorial: I want to validate my startup idea. it is temporarily on Notion, before I make a dedicated page for these tutorials. If you like this, I would love your support on Twitter.

So, coming to the "why", I realised that my earlier articles were:
1. Quite long
2. Not immediately actionable

I wanted to change both of these aspects. So, here's how No-VC tackles this.

Tackling a specific problem
Each article will tackle a specific problem faced by every entrepreneur. I have shared the topics for the next 16 weeks here. Just sharing the next 4 topics on mail:
- Week 2: I want to find a co-founder
- Week 3: I want to build a marketing website but have no coding skills
- Week 4: I want to know what the deal is with VC funding
- Week 5: I want to build a product but have no coding skills

I plan to add exact dates against each, so that you know when the topic you are interested in is going to covered. If you want to add a topic to the list, just hit reply.

Article structure
Each article will be to the point and follow a standard structure:
- Problem
- Solution
- Why and when to worry about this?
- Tools
- Implementation
- Related posts

Well, that's it. Each week one focused topic for you. As I said earlier, this week it is: "I want to validate my startup idea". Let me know what you think about it by replying OR give me a shout out!

Thanks,
Karthik
