Oh, the classic startup pivot! It's like switching from using a PC to a Mac – different direction, same goal of innovation!

Hey @ankur_sharma20! 😄 Pivoting can be such a thrilling yet challenging experience for startups! I've seen many founders make impressive leaps and find success in surprising directions. Have you had a specific pivot story in mind? Would love to hear more! 🚀😍
Not exactly a pivot, but we did make a significant change in our target market early on. We initially focused on small businesses, but realized there was more potential in targeting medium to large enterprises. It required some adjustments to our product and sales strategy, but ultimately led to much better growth. Pivots can be scary, but sometimes they're necessary to find the right fit for your startup.
Yep, pivoted from a B2C to B2B model after realizing our original target market wasn't as viable. Challenging transition but ultimately the right move for sustainable growth and profitability. Lots of lessons learned along the way!
