Exploring Business in the UK

Additionally from the article > Semi-precious gems, which had probably fallen out of rings after the bathhouse steam loosen their glue settings, were recovered from drains at the site

To think about the frustration the original owner might have felt when those were lost and now they're found all these years later for us to study and learn from.

Hey couple of ideas you might want to explore with specific outcomes: - Could you build a project that generates alerts for when it's detected someone has fallen? - Could you explore a project that predicts weaknesses, diseases, faults in trees so that homeowners and others can take preventative action. - Could you explore a project that takes satellite imagery and predicts where the location of the image is?

Plus if you check out this list you might see some other ideas that are emerging from the industry: https://twitter.com/i/lists/1589644342746021890 or https://twitter.com/i/lists/1588109045902319616

All the best!

Love it. Was the thumbs up / thumbs down intentional? I'm guessing so scrolled to make it a thumbs up.

This is super. Nice clean interface, fast loading, fonts work really well for the style.

Perhaps you may want to add a seperation between the button / tag sets for categories? So you have all the tags and then a line that says "Discover by" [Popular] [New] just allows for an easier exploration maybe.

I'm in the UK and there are quite a few services now that invest your money into property and infrastructure loans as peer to peer loans. I've invested in quite a few and see ~£50 a month as gains across the total set. I usually either reinvest or I pay out and buy into other investments. I could increase my exposure here but I think I'm at a comfortable level for my risk appetite.

For me this is investing in property but without the hassle of long term maintenance. You don't own the property but it's much more hassle free and fairly passive as long as you pick which things you'd like to invest into.

Services I've personally invested in and would vouch for: - https://www.kuflink.com/ - https://www.loanpad.com/ - https://www.lendingworks.co.uk/ - https://www.abundanceinvestment.com/

You might like to try out some peer to peer loan based investments if you're after some fairly passive gains.

Great work. I was surprised to see it UK based but it was good. I think it'll help reinforce ideas of saving, pensions and forward thinking. Things you may want to consider:

- Gain graph? Some type of means to show how the gains have earned. Understand you're opting for a simulation of reality but it might help with understanding what is going on.

- Economic changes / opportunities? New stock, new financial products or travel opportunities. The email inbox is quite neat and it allows perhaps for these events to be introduced.

Hey vfc1 great work. Couple of thoughts just on the landing page / proposal: 1 - It's an extensive landing page with a lot of scroll, I guess this might be because you're trying to talk about all the things you can do / will do which is extensive and great but I wonder if you can shrink the page to make the core points and drive to the call to action as a pose to scroll and depart.

2 - I suspect you'll have fairly long sales cycles right? It takes time for people to build their materials, gather resources, polish their words. I wonder if you can make them start with an initial step that builds ownership, e.g. upload a logo or something along that line that get's users along the way.

3 - It maybe apparent to users that you are new. Being new comes with advantages but people may feel the risk of you disappearing and or going bust. Is there a way you can communicate trust / long term support? Sometimes people do this with testimonials or perhaps some kind of of guarantee, maybe a lower priority one for consideration.

Hi there, product person here. Due to the nature of the role I have to create meetings to agree on approaches, align on directions and communicate often. Very very, keen not to waste anyones time, so I try my best to email first and be present when facilitating meetings.

Two quick frameworks that you might find helpful:

1) The POST method, to give clarity at the beginning of a meeting: Purpose: What is the purpose of the meeting? Objective: What are you trying to achieve in the meeting, and what does success look like? Structure: What is the structure of the meeting we are having? Timing: How much time is allocated to the meeting?

https://gist.github.com/aaronbuchanan/2dcf936daceab925da61

I like this because it helps give quick context, also the mnemonic is quite handy.

2) Try to structure your meeting around other people's questions: - Going from basic what questions working up to why we need to make a decision, how they might be impacted etc. - I wrote a short post about it here: https://www.logikblok.com/supporting-asking-questions

I like this because it focuses your communication around your audience/user needs.

Aside from that and keeping everyone on the same track of discussion / time / documenting agreements all help out. Hope that helps.

Hey Matt, great work and excellent effort boot strapping the concept with the video and web app.

Couple of thoughts (Feel free to ignore): 1 - "Novari is Spotify for generative art" could work harder for you probably. Ref https://www.demandcurve.com/playbooks/above-the-fold#i3q8kwg...

2 - I wonder if use cases might be better to highlight on the home page, e.g. mock ups of the art being displayed in your home on digital frames or screensavers, whilst there's a part going on projected etc.

3 - The art is the wow factor right? So once in the app once you've signed up maybe it's a good idea to present users a big play button that shows them art immediately, reducing time to figure out what's on there etc.

4 - If you are viewing art on the full screen it might be good to be able to scroll through it without pressing esc and the next piece?

I'm contactable via my profile if you ever wanted to bounce anything off.
