- Retention Issues
- Elisha Tan, the founder of TechLadies, talked about her first startup called Learnemy during Malaysian Global Innovation & Creativity Centre (MaGIC) in 2017.
- To launch it, she had to self-learn the art of coding which became bait for the media to talk about her.
- It was a good start for her and Learnemy got the exposure that it needs and it received positive coverage from the media.
- But soon she realized media coverage doesn’t always translate into traction.
- She said, “As a founder, you try to stay optimistic. But at some point, you have to be brutally honest with yourself. Look at the hard facts in your face, if traction isn’t there, there are no other means, it’s time to end it.”
- Moreover, she mentioned in her interview with Channel News Asia that she struggled to get users to use her website once they were connected with their instructors - there were a lot of leakages driven by users, most users would just connect with their instructors offline.
Media is not traction.
