Looking for a peer group of haven't-quit-the-day-job-yet entrepreneurs
I've made a commitment to myself to quit the day job within the next two years to pursue a venture on my own. I want to meet with other folks who are in the same boat: people who know the next step in their career is entrepreneurship, and are getting plans ready to pursue it.
While there are plenty of organizations that set up peer groups for entrepreneurs, there aren't many for the transitioners like me. So I'll put this out there: if you've made that commitment to yourself to start your own business as the next step in your career, but you're still early in the journey, would you want to join a peer group or accountability group? Comment here & let me know, and I'll try to set up a way to organize this.
Yeah, I'm in. I have a very lucrative day job that really makes you think twice about jumping ship. I have a side-gig that definitely brings in some really really good beer money, but moving over into SaaS as a next step. (I'm a software engineer by trade). Would love to connect with others on the journey!

I've been working overseas for the last 7 years and I'm preparing to go independent once I'm back home at the end of my contract. A group like this is exactly what I need.

This is still going? I just resigned from a 16-year job to start my own SaaS company. Yikes!! So scary but exciting as well!
I want to quit so badly, someone give me an app to build!
What I have already quit and I feel shit reading this :)
Sorry for stealing the link from your other comments, but I've joined! :)
Lets start with telegram or slack or whatapp group with pin msgs of all stacks(tools)
Thanks for starting this! I'm actively working on a project while looking to quit my job in the next 3 months! would love to join this slack group and perhaps also get any thoughts/ feedback on the concept!

since no one creates a community to move to the next step, i have created simple blank discord server, we can join and continue there. invite link here discord. gg/ytJdpbSbkf
Ha, I get that. I did get a Slack group together as a starting point for this peer group though. Join here: https://join.slack.com/t/slack-34q9432/shared_invite/zt-23sjb6w10-F4gYfFXv289RDZEQx8SMQQ

Me too ; pls count me in.
To take it next level, may I suggest-- a deidcated forum such as discord or facebook or reddit groups
Optionally weekly or biweekly meetup online -- simple google meet would work
As most of us are coders, I would suggest briging in a few saas marketeers to mentor or guide us or who has done that --identified, ICP, Niche, PMF
We can do all of this during weekends, preferably sat or sun morning.
@code_documenter let us know next steps. Thanks
