Founder's Saturday — weekly online meeting to help each other grow

Hey Indie Hackers,

Seeing a lot of posts around burnout, accountability, and "how-to-solve-something" questions, I thought of an idea to hold a weekly call with founders to help participants achieve their goals. The meeting will cover three main areas:

  • weekly progress update

    We have 13 responses so far! I'll be in touch tomorrow and, hopefully, we can get the first "dry run" this Saturday!

  2. 1

    We already have 10 sign ups! I'm amazed! Thanks, everyone, for the support!

  3. 1

    I'm in! Signed up!

    Let's see if Saturday brings us more people! I'll be in touch with those who sign up shortly after the weekend!

    If anyone is interested in doing this during the week, let me know as Saturdays/Sundays don't work great for me.

    I really like this idea - saw something similar (https://medium.com/things-ive-written/the-elephants-182870501589) from a Nick Crocker article - definitely interested :)

    @rosiesherry @csallen — hey, I have two questions:
    – how do I make more people see this post?
    – Can I create some hashtag like "founders-saturday", so we can use IndieHackers forum for the idea instead of taking it away to GoogleDocs or so? I'm sure something good should come out of it, and I would like to share good stuff back to the community!

    Thanks

    Thanks for the support guys! Let's make this happen and we will figure out challenges as we go. I suggest we give it another week for more people to join, but in the meantime, if you can fill out a short form: https://forms.gle/tZnZtNpW3HQU6LNV8, so I can figure out a time and send invites?

      Done!

      Note that saying "I'm an expert" is a bit odd. I'm not, but I'm better than "Know enough" ;).

      Also, about the times, I think Fridays might be good to, at the end of the workday week.

      Good luck! Curious to know how it will evolve!

        @patrickbolle was curious for Friday timeframe. It doesn't work for me personally, but I'll keep it open as an option.

        Regarding "expert" — everything is relative. I wanted to ask if you're comfortable giving advice in that area :)

    Why not, I'd be interested, but finding a time that works for everyone might be difficult to find :/

    I think that is a great idea.
