Turning a good idea into a successful startup is not an easy job. It’s crucial to understand the market you are aiming for, the wants and needs of the audience you are selling to, the most attractive features of your product compared to the other ones on the market, and the competitive environment. YORD studio, a leading global VR/AR studio, has cracked this code a managed to build a successful startup from scratch. For this reason, the studio offers its expert help to startups looking to develop their business.
The startup development process covers the whole ecosystem in which startups grow, from the idea’s inception to the actual use of the final product, including its improvement and development. And this process doesn’t happen overnight. On average, a startup takes up to three years to make a profit. And success is never guaranteed. More than 90 percent of startups fail, and the reasons are plural, but the most obvious mistake is misjudging the market need for the product. Sometimes the market need may be there, but startups fail to do good marketing for what they want the audience to buy. Also, there might be several other problems, like finances, bad teams, and technical, operational, or legal problems.
For this reason, many startups opt for outside help from other corporations and successful businesses. In the early stages of a startup, outside help from companies could be done through startup accelerators or incubators. Whether your startup needs an incubator or an accelerator depends on the stage you are currently in. If you already have a product and a business model, you could use the help of accelerators to grow your startup. On the other hand, if you all have an idea, startup incubators can help you build a business model and a company. In summary, accelerators are mainly there to scale a business, while incubators focus on innovation.
There are numerous examples of successful startup development, like the projects by Yord studio, which turned innovative ideas into successful projects and businesses.

Each part of this amazing journey takes place in a separate virtual reality room. The room is fully customizable, with different environments and various song choices.
Through his project, we managed to create a unique solution for Lifeboard VR, which helped to scale their business and create one of the first projects that combined the tools of virtual reality with the mental health philosophy.

Experts from Yord studio saw great potential in the metaverse, especially in e-commerce. Metaverse presents itself as a new battleground for e-commerce, opening up a new challenge for retailers and brands. Lack of scalability and digital asset interoperability is still a significant flaw of immersive digital retailers, which creates a need for a standardized commerce channel to reach customers across various metaverses. This is where we saw a need for MOYA.
3. MAINWARE
With the help of experts from Yord, Mainware became a successful startup that managed to build a business around a unique concept of industrial digitalization. MAINWARE is a solution for maintenance 4.0 – a complex software that connects the best practices from project management, maintenance, industry 4.0, AR/VR, and artificial intelligence.

Regardless of which industry you choose for your startup, the competition is fierce these days—finding a real problem that your product fixes are the most significant challenge and a place where most startups fail. On the other hand, there might be a real problem to fix in the market, and you might have the perfect solution, but you can lack the capacity to execute the idea. This is where outside help might save your good opinion. If you have some good ideas or already have a business plan but lack the skills to execute it, consider hiring Yord studio to help develop your startup!
