What was the most challenging obstacle you faced during the early stages of your startup? and how did you overcome it. Start ups constantly have difficult obstacles in front of them and each one faces each challenges in unique ways. My start up is currently looking to find the perfect market fit sparking my idea to ask people what other parts they found challenging within the process. Cheers to everyone who replies, Love to see what people think of this discussion.

I've launched a few different projects as a solo entrepreneur...from software to physical products. - My early challenges are usually struggles with coding something, or with software I'm not familiar with (e.g. CAD programs)...a fault of mine that I recognize more and more is that I choose to go it alone instead of partnering up with people...maybe that's actually my main early issue!

Getting the word out and building a community has definitely proved to be the most challenging for me. How did I solve it? I haven't yet...0_0, but my strategy is to be active on social media and groups relevant to my product, create content to add to the site's blog and try and get the word out as much as possible....speaking of which...
