Ask HN: Rate my startup plan
But what if there was a startup whose very purpose was to supply 3 months worth of Delicious Hot Ramen for just 5% stake in your YC startup? We would guarantee that you would get at least 33.47% greater nutritional value and 89.09% more calories. And we deliver.
Our name? YumCombinator!
Our analysis:
Most of our clients will live in clusters. So we can optimize our delivery system. Perhaps not squeeze the margins as much as provide reassurance that we can can back up "And we deliver" slogan with 6 9s.
In terms of product, we can afford to start with better ingredients and fresher preparation and still keep well within the price point of the factory output of our large competitors.
In terms of market, we don't believe we pose a threat to the Ramen producers and will not be worth their energies. In any event, should they decide to compete with us, they would basically have to start at the same plane as us. And we're a few steps ahead of them.
In terms of clients, we ourselves are entrepenoodles (TM) (no, that's not a derogatory term) and pretty much live the same life and schedule as our clients. Yes, we will eat our own food, so we will make sure it lives up to the name YumCombinator Special Ramen.
The commercial opportunity we present to our clients is Freshly prepared Hot Ramen and assortments delivered daily to their startup for a period of 3 months. In return, we ask for 5% of the startup.
Revenue model:
YumCombinator is in essence a parasitical venture capitalist firm, but we aim to do our best to be in a symbiotic relationship with our clients and ecosystem.
