For the Single Founder Who Cant Code

Screen Shot 2012-06-02 at 10.39.33 PMLast summer when I started working onUndrip, I was in a tough spot. I grew up doing web and graphic design so I was a pretty good front-end developer and designer. But I knew nothing about back-end web development loops, branches dictionaries or functions were all foreign concepts to me. I was a single founder who couldn't code.Against the OddsEvery week I get emails from entrepreneurs seeking my advice asking how I did itbefore, and how I'm doing it now. They find themselves in similar situations in that they're looking to build a tech startup with little to no technical skills. They're frustrated by their inability to make forward progress and they usually either give up and fail, or outsource if they have some extra cash (which usually leads to failure).If you're a single founder who can't code, your chances for startup success are near zero. However,there's still a chance.And a chance is all you need.
