    Need Advice on Starting a Business – What Do You Think?

    IDEA

    Oh a fellow ENTP... Alright, I can really empathize with you. :) Now I know why you don't have a clear picture...

    Any iOS developers around?

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    The thing I have found on my SaaS journey is its not about the products platform or the code IOS, Android, Web etc... Because you can be on all three at the same time, and hyrbids for native apps via the web are trying to break through as well. You can waste a lot time debating that... As you...
