Solopreneurs, how do you manage "loneliness" in business?

Micro communities (for ex., Slack groups of less than 30 folks with similar moral compasses and interests) and occasionally scheduling virtual coffees.

Loneless HELP with HIGHT focus. Only go network and talking to peeps when your hard work is done 😎 That’s the HARD WAY 💎

Eagles are always alone. The best option is hanging out with other eagles - other solopreneurs.

I really recommend finding other professionals in your field and having regular group meetings to discuss challenges you're going through. That's what I did at the start of being a Founder and it was beyond helpful!

In little digital campfires like: - A Whatsapp group of 4-5 entrepreneur friends - Meetup with friends you feel a vibe with, who don't bring you down - Engaging here / communities on Reddit Alternatives: - Helping someone out, for anything

Working at a cafe and regularly meeting friends for chats.

I know this has been mentioned many times before, but life typically relies on three pillars: work, hobbies, and social connections. Your life is like a board balanced on these pillars. Even if you are a workaholic, your life can still be in balance. However, if your other pillars are not strong enough, you may experience instability and stress. Therefore, even if it is challenging, try to develop at least one other pillar besides work. This will provide stability, even when work is not enough to keep you balanced.

Get a co founder that has complementary skills to go further , faster, and share struggles and overcome them. Network with other entrepreneurs, find a mentor you can talk to when in need. Schedule network calls with like minded entrepreneurs once a month at least to discuss progress challenges experiences, tips

I find joining online communities really helps. There’s always someone who gets what you’re going through.

That's a tough one. I haven't found a cure yet! Although finding a strong team could help

I've kind of learned to live with it. One thing that helped me are conferences and meetups with other developers. In-person events are a great way to exchange ideas and meet new interesting people with your same "problems". The catch is that, at least for me, these are not a regular thing, often the interesting ones are far from where I live

It's a rollercoaster - at the moment my gf gets me energised

I'm not a solo anymore but was for a long time. I found building a network and an occasional face to face networking was useful. Naturally there is a product for that. @jwurtz created https://www.producthunt.com/prod... to solve this plus missing targets.

That doesn’t make me lonely, it makes me feel alive. Doing everything myself gives me happiness because I’m making myself proud. There’s no need for loneliness when I enjoy being alone.

A sad story: Once 30+ people, then 20+, then less than 10, and then just one…

Navigating business solitude is like debugging code - sometimes you need to step back, take a deep breath, and remember there's a whole community of fellow solopreneurs out there ready to support you! How do you handle those solo business blues?

I think it's the same as in any solo adventure. If you are lonely, there are communities you can find for just about anything. If not, create one!

Well, a great way to reduce this symptom is to connect online! I am looking for connections on Product Hunt, I think this is a great path for mutual growth.

Dealing with loneliness as a solopreneur? I talk to my plants—they’re great listeners and never leaf me hanging.😁 But seriously, joining online communities and local meetups has been really helpful.
