Happy Sunday everyone! What are you buidling today?
Hey all, hope you’re having a great weekend!
Just wanted to share a quick milestone: Our startup, NextIsOnMe (NIOM), officially crossed 500 real-world events hosted across 118 cities! 🌍
For context, NIOM is an offline social network operating in high-density metros. The hook is simple: a venue or host covers the bill to remove the financial friction of meeting new people in real life.
Our biggest takeaway getting to this point? Digital ads are a trap for early B2B onboarding. We stopped burning cash on digital acquisition and shifted entirely to a "concierge service", using boots-on-the-ground team members to physically walk into cafes, build trust, and manually onboard them. It completely unlocked our growth loop.
We’re staying lean, self-funded, and focused on clearing our tech backlog this week.
But enough about us, what are you working on today? Drop your project, a recent win, or a roadblock you're trying to smash through. Let's talk shop!
