What is discussed
AskMonty AI editorial noteSource consulted:
Montemagno recalls two mistakes in his early projects: chasing a brilliant idea without asking who would pay, and handling the website, marketing and customer support by himself. He says he learned to delegate when he stopped trying to control everything and trusted his ability to step in if problems arose. His third suggestion to his younger self concerns timing: work on the project every day while accepting that results may take years.
Key points
- Before developing an idea, ask which problem it solves and whether anyone is willing to pay.
- In his case, reluctance to delegate came partly from a lack of trust, not just a lack of money.
- For Montemagno, solving everyday problems and planning for the long term are tasks to pursue together.
