🧠 Hard truth for fellow Bubblers and founders

Jobs / Freelance
1

Bubble gives us the tools to build just about anything, but that doesn’t mean we should build everything alone.

I’ll admit it…
When I first started, I thought I could do it all solo, dev, design, strategy, marketing.
I learned the hard way: even the best ideas fail without the right team behind them.

Startups don’t die because the idea is bad.
They die because founders get burnt out trying to wear every hat at once.
They stall, overthink, and lose momentum.

That’s exactly why I built No Code Creations, a full-stack launch team for startups built on no-code foundations like Bubble.

We bring:
:white_check_mark: 4 Bubble developers
:artist_palette: UI/UX and branding pros who bring life to your app visually and strategically
:chart_increasing: Growth experts to help you launch, market, and scale
:rocket: True end-to-end support—from scoping and MVP builds to post-launch growth

We’ve helped solo founders become startups with traction and real market presence.
If you’re working on something and could use a serious team behind you—we’ve got your back.

Let’s build something incredible. Together.

Sounds like you’re on the right track.

Although the number 1 reason startups fail is simply because there is no market demand for what they’re offering. Followed in a close second by a lack of funds.

I mentioned before, it is important to get a proof of concept before you start. Start getting signups before you ever get serious about building.

Does anyone care about what you’re building?

How many people care?

Are you getting feedback?

Are you asking for feedback?

The proof of concept is very important for your MUP. Some call it MVP, but the focus should be on an MUP. Minimum Usable Product. The one simple thing that makes your startup unique from anything out there…and that can be a whole list of things.

Now, if you’re just sitting at home and you have an idea you want to throw together just to enjoy building…that’s a different story.

If you’re in it for the money, it’s best to follow the best practices I mentioned.

Good luck with your agency!

Added: Was thinking about this post after I posted it. I didn’t want it to sound like a good proof of concept is always foolproof.

Yes, market demand is the #1 reason startups fail.

When the startup becomes successful, you have a whole list of other problems: bad management, a flawed business plan, bad blood between the founders, and on and on.

It’s good to offer a lot of help to your clients.

Anyway, if anyone is interested in any of this…

here’s an interesting video that shows good startups don’t always end up great:

Hey mate, appreciate the thoughtful reply, and you’re 100% right about market demand being a top reason startups fail. No point building something no one wants, and I totally agree with the importance of getting feedback early and validating the concept before diving too deep.

That said, the point of this post was actually less about demand and more about the importance of having a solid team behind you. I’ve been guilty of trying to do it all on my own in the early days, and looking back, that’s what really held things up.

Having the right people around you, from strategy, design and development to marketing and growth, makes a massive difference. It’s not just about building the thing; it’s about launching it properly and giving it a real shot.

So yep, 100% agree that proof of concept matters, but trying to get that proof, build, market, and scale all solo is where a lot of people burn out or stall.

Appreciate the insights, and cheers for sharing that video too, good reminder that even great ideas need more than just a good start.
