Show notes

Most founders love building. Fewer love selling. And according to Vasyl "Vince" Soloshchuk, that's exactly where many startups go wrong.

We talk about why rejection is one of the most valuable forms of startup data, why founders need to talk to customers earlier, and why traction beats a smart-sounding idea every time.

We also dive into FinTech, AI, distribution, data infrastructure, investor red flags, burn rate mistakes, and why execution matters more than vision.

Vasyl “Vince” Soloshchuk

Founder & CEO, INSART

Twenty-five years in engineering and fintech, and he climbed every rung — team lead, CTO, then founder. He built INSART from Ukraine into a Florida-based B2B tech studio that has helped 20+ fintech companies find product-market fit, modernise legacy systems and raise money. He's blunt about what kills startups: not the idea, but the distribution, the data infrastructure and the founder who can't execute.
