Enthusiastic teams are driven by passion, and this can sometimes be more powerful than a big budget. Their commitment to the vision can help them overcome many obstacles.

@d_f4 I agree with you, but it’s hard enough for teams without funding to promote their product in marketing, which can lead to failure (

Yes, a team of enthusiastic and skilled individuals can launch a successful product without significant funding. Success often depends on factors like creativity, determination, resourcefulness, and the ability to leverage available resources effectively. Many successful startups began with minimal funding but managed to innovate and grow through hard work and smart strategies. However, it's essential to acknowledge that funding can provide advantages, such as faster scalability and marketing reach, but it's not the sole determinant of success. So go ahead!

@andryushin thanks for you answer, but if you product that focuses on the audience, like social network, you need to attract as many audience as possible and this requires a lot of funding and it can be a trouble. But I believe it's possible. Everything drives ideas)

@vladimirr You're absolutely right! Building a social network or any product that relies on a large audience can be challenging due to the need for significant funding and user acquisition efforts. However, with a compelling idea, dedication, and effective marketing strategies, it's indeed possible to attract a substantial audience and make it successful. Keep believing in your idea – innovation and determination can go a long way!

Limited fundings forces teams to adopt a lean approach. This means they focus on the most essential features and prioritize resources efficiently.
