Feedback about a new newsletter/blog idea🙏

Thinking about starting a weekly newsletter/blog showcasing:

đź“—Stories about founders and makers who launched their project and failed âť“ What did go wrong? đź’ˇ Key learnings and takeaways

Worth subscribing?

I think the idea is fine, but execution will need work!

These newsletters and blogs are dime a dozen nowadays. Just add a personal touch to it and people will like them.

Be unique, that market is saturated as heck.

I think it’s really hard to start a newsletter without an existing following. I don’t know if you have that, but I’d focus on building an audience on something like Twitter first.

Yeah, you need to build great content and personality to attract people first. I guess you've seen Failory?

@spekulatius yep I've checked it. Would love to give voice to more failure stories to showcase that is much more common than we thought.

@nocodebcn cool, just wanted to make sure you've seen it. The idea is okay - execution is what makes the difference, as @sergio mentioned :)

You should check out https://www.failory.com/ which is quite popular. They started out as a blog and now have a podcast too.

The idea is good and as Sergio said the execution needs some thinking.

How will you differentiate from what's already out there?

Think about niching down and focusing on one area, for example, founders finance for a what not to do but tie in with their finances.
