I am curious why you decided to quit job to work on your startup? Were you getting a lot of traction?

I have done something similar and learnt a great deal. The biggest lesson I learnt is to sell before you build. If you can't get enough people excited to buy your product don't build.

I'd built it up in my spare time and felt it needed my full attention to get started. I prefer to get stuck in and give it a real go so I usually save up money to cover the downtime.

I agree on selling before you build. I keep failing and one common themes is not having customers before going full time. Lesson learned!
