𝑰 𝑶𝑵𝑳𝒀 𝑳𝑨𝑼𝑵𝑪𝑯𝑬𝑫 𝑻𝑯𝑰𝑺 𝑨𝑷𝑷 2 𝑴𝑶𝑵𝑻𝑯𝑺 𝑨𝑮𝑶 ! I cannot believe where following your dreams could lead you !!  2 Months -> 2500 Downloads on OnlyFounders App 0$ on Ads Spent All organically What a ride it’s been. Two years ago, I was just another student looking for a next challenge, although i had the "IDEAS" (worthless), I wasn't able to find the Like-Minded people ! Finding that person? Brutal. Networking felt random. And most platforms? Not built for real founders. So, I decided to change that. OnlyFounders App was born. And now, just 2 months since launch, we’re already seeing the impact: ✅ Entrepreneurs matching with the right CoFounders ✅ Founders taking their first real steps toward launching their startups ✅ A community forming around shared ambition & execution Still, this is just the START ❌ App full of crashes  ❌ Algorithm sometimes keeps people in a loop (doesn't show new users) ❌Hundreds of founders didn't complete their profiles (can use the app but are not discoverable)  ❌ Growing community = Harder to find Like-Minded people= Need more driven Founders ❌ £0 in the Bank BUT we have 𝑨 𝑪𝑶𝑴𝑴𝑰𝑻𝑴𝑬𝑵𝑻 𝑻𝑶 𝑭𝑶𝑼𝑵𝑫𝑬𝑹𝑺: 🔥 We will keep improving. 🛠️ We will make finding the right CoFounder seamless. 🚀 We will do everything to give you an unfair advantage in the startup world. And we’re just getting started. 📢 What’s next? → Google Play Store launch? ✅ Done. → Even more updates to improve matching? On the way. → New tools to help founders connect faster? Coming soon. If you’ve downloaded, shared with someone who might need it, or even just checked out OnlyFounders THANK YOU. 👂 One question for you: What’s one feature you’d love to see in OnlyFounders?

Awesome reel from Montasser Chebbah of OnlyFounders, recapping his experience pitching at Tuesday's #FoundersLive #London, and finding a lot more in the process! This kind of thing makes our day, especially as we've watched OnlyFounders over on Instagram for some time, knowing they'd be perfect allies in this supportive #founder ecosystem.

The success rate of 1-st time founders 🎢📊 - Founders who have failed previously have a 20% chance of success while first-time founders have an 18% chance of success. - Founders of a previously successful business have a 30% chance of success with their next venture. At the $1B company level, this correlation naturally diverges even more, with 60% of founders in these companies being serial founders. That's why teams should be mixed in such a way that AT LEAST one founder is a serial entrepreneur. 🎉 credits + many thanks: Montasser Chebbah, "Skill vs. Luck in Entrepreneurship and VC (Evidence from Serial Entrepreneurs 2006", Embroker, OnlyFounders 🔍 what insight would you add?

Last Week, Alessandra Ignelzi and I had a huge fight, A Big disagreement, & here's what 𝘕𝘖𝘉𝘖𝘋𝘠 tells you about CoFounders Relationship: The perfect CoFounder isn't your: - Best friend - Former classmate - Carbon copy They're the person who makes you 𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 in the right ways. Real talk: Your CoFounder should: -> Challenge your blind spots -> Have skills that scare you -> Make decisions that surprise you The most dangerous CoFounder relationship?🚩 Two people who 𝒂𝒍𝒘𝒂𝒚𝒔 𝑨𝑮𝑹𝑬𝑬 🚩 Think about it: If you both think exactly alike, one of you is redundant. if we didn't talk it out (with Alessandra), it would've built grief and long term issues ! The best partnerships are built on: ✓ Complementary weaknesses ✓ Different perspectives ✓ Uncomfortable honesty Remember: You're not looking for a friend. You're looking for a battle tested ally who will tell you when you're wrong. 💡Pro tip: Before signing anything, work on a small project together or use Vesting for 3 months. It's cheaper than a messy divorce. 𝘉𝘵𝘸, 𝘮𝘺 𝘯𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘔𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘢 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘊𝘰𝘶𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘞𝘦𝘦𝘬𝘴 𝘢𝘨𝘰 𝘐 𝘭𝘢𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘯 𝘈𝘱𝘱 𝘊𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘥 OnlyFounders 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱𝘴 𝘍𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘓𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘔𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘊𝘰𝘍𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴, 𝘓𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘛𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘉𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 😉
