    Focusing on the mistakes starts on the wrong page. "Youngest successful tech entrepreneur" sounds like an ego adventure rather than an innovative... idea. Your idea must attempt to solve a problem, improve something, or meet a need. Otherwise, find a job and climb the ladder.  more

    Yes, fix your writing skills before pitching your ideas. Serious proposals get serious consideration.

    Don’t to sound rude but LLMs are everywhere, use Gemini AI for example to do your research. Above all, many people have ideas, a few execute, that’s... what divides those who talk from those who walk the talk. Good luck. more

    Make sure there is a market for your idea before you develop it. You can do this for free by creating a free report on the problem you are solving and... going to Facebook groups and offering it for free. If you get lots of people asking you to send them the report, you have a winner. more

    You can’t pitch your ideas if you can’t write a coherent sentence. The people who have the money you need to bring your idea to fruition are most... likely well educated and will care if you can’t present your ideas in a clear and cohesive manner. Learn to write or learn to use the tools you need so it appears you can write. This all matters more than you think it does. Good luck.  more

    Just be sensible. follow advice from experts, be humble, be clear what you will do once you are successful and study the factors which made you... successful. Same is the case with failure also. Take both success and failure alike. You need to have the substance to analyze a failure , correct it and move on..  more

    Take advice from auto correct. Nobody will take you seriously if you write so poorly. Punctuation matters to most people. You only once to make a... first impression. Good luck.  more
