As a pre-seed startup, looking for investors and building connectingdna.com at the same time can be a challenge.

Fortunately, I like challenges. 😉

Maybe it's in my DNA 🧬... I must thank my parents for that. 😘

As a solo founder, it is important that we appreciate our wife.

My wife is my bastion of support during dark times and make the good times more precious.

This week I celebrate the birthday of my wife - the hidden cofounder of #connectingdna.

Happy Birthday! #Buildinpublic

Sometimes developing small features takes the most time...

This feature let vendors put their discount codes in their listing - it helps vendors sell well.

Sometimes it is developing the small features that helps to make the whole thing great. 😉

As an entrepreneur, I found out that learning new things is the norm. In fact, YouTube is my best friend (apart from Google).

My best friend taught me how to integrate SEO into connectingdna.com today. 😉

Most customers don't know that behind the layout of connectingdna.com, there's so much work and assets built behind the scene - all to ensure a good UX across PC, tablet & mobile.

This may not matter to many, but user experience matters a lot to us 😄

Nothing makes my day more than receiving a nice compliement on connectingdna.com from another person. 🥰

It is validation like this that gives my team and I confidence in what we are building.

What is the typical % equity founders should give for a seed round? Any suggestions? #buildinpublic

Looking for ways to talk to founders who has been invested by a VC firm to get a sense of that VC firm investing in us.

Recommending @CakeEquity for all new startup founders looking to sort out their cap table.

Cake has the best consumer service and support out there and @ConnectingDNA really benefited from it.

Thanks Cake! #buildinpublic

I have learnt to be very selective with investors.

I don't want 'short term gain and long term pain'. I rather have 'short term pain (bootstrap) and long term gain (billion dollar company)'. 😀 #buildinpublic

I wonder when do I need to travel for my @ConnectingDNA business.

But with the rise of remote meetings and work, I hope it won't be so soon. #buildinpublic

They say good startup founders have to be obsessed with their business.

Well, since I work more than 18 hours a day on @ConnectingDNA. I think that qualifies. 😀 #buildinpublic
