I read a lot of resources on LinkedIn, X, and here. Podcasts and case studies are good for me, too. I created free resources for startup founders, too. ✅ LinkedIn Profile Checklist ✅ LinkedIn Growth Checklist ✅ B2B Buyer Persona Template ✅ Product Hunt Launch Checklist ✅ 140+ Social Proof Examples ✅ 60+ Directories to Promote your Startup (I have a 500+ list. But I chose the best for you). https://olenabomko.gumroad.com

Google Keywords Planner or something for Keywords Research. Understands better to understand the market: user needs.

I'll shamelessly plugin my podcast since it's the most relevant for founders in today's day and age. Since it's something we all are figuring out ourselves and sharing the learnings that make sense right now. Links in my profile.

Hubspot Academy and blog are a great source of basic but practical guides on marketing and sales Like the article on Li outreach with templates https://blog.hubspot.com/sales/b... "Learn Design & Design Basics" by Figma is a great way to start figuring out how to do good design. https://www.figma.com/resource-l... Also would recommend YC videos and lenny's podcast to learn from the best in the industry. YC how to get first customers video:

Startups should definitely be part of a community. It provides support from like-minded individuals, healthy criticism, and the opportunity to seek advice when needed. Expanding your network through LinkedIn and various forums is crucial. Equally important is professional development. Today, there are numerous free resources sharing insights from their work. For example, my team at JetSoftPro has recorded over 10 videos with marketing tips to help startups understand key questions. https://www.youtube.com/playlist... There are many such opportunities. Additionally, newsletters on business and tech trends, influential speakers, and offline events that have survived after COVID are valuable resources.

Hey @olenabomko! 😊 Great question! For startup founders, I'd recommend checking out 'The Lean Startup' by Eric Ries and Y Combinator's Startup School. Both are treasure troves of insights and practical advice. 😄 Also, don't miss out on Paul Graham's essays; they're gold! Happy reading and best of luck with your startup journey! 🚀

@olenabomko @abhra_ch I believe that the Lean startup was the most relevant when it came out but it's not enough now. We discussed about the concepts in the book in detail and how they are irrelevant on this episode: https://youtu.be/FoIB0u03aVA

LinkedIn can be a treasure trove for startup info, but it's easy to get overwhelmed. The checklist mentioned here sounds like just what I need to focus my browsing.

I like to be inspired by the stories of other founders and to learn from both successful and unsuccessful stories. I also find the interaction with others in my industry and with potential target groups very valuable. Other than that, of course: - Startup/technology newsletters and podcasts - Articles on Crunchbase, Medium, etc. - HackerNews, Reddit (sometimes) and of course Product Hunt And local startup events, founder meetups, conferences and trade shows are very underrated in my opinion.
