Build Your Companies…With Good Boards
Most of the new founders I’ve ever met roll their eyes when I suggest that they form an advisory board. One of the main reasons people found their own companies is to have supreme magisterial control over their empire. They … Continue reading
The Four Seasons of Your Start-Up…Autumn Begins! (reprise)
(Originally posted in 2012…thought of it as I picked my last tomato of the season yesterday!) The temperature outside my window last night dipped to 44, the crickets have stopped chirping and my wife told me that she “can’t manage … Continue reading

VentureTips: In Defense of the Downtrodden Business Plan
The recent consensus from investors and experts on business plans is…don’t do them. Most often I’m hearing that founders have not written a business plan document. They’ve prepared executive summaries, powerpoint pitches and filled out forms at online pitch sites. … Continue reading
Even In the Beginning, Entrepreneurs Created Jobs
I’m going to get right to the point of this blog post. Sometimes, shocking information is best delivered in a no-nonsense, unapologetic manner. So, I’m just going to hit you with this right now and I just don’t want you … Continue reading
The Search for Serendipity…And Why It Matters To Your Venture
I turn 48 this week and like most people passing from one year to the next, I find myself a bit nostalgic for the way things used to be. One of the things I miss…a little at least…has gotten extremely … Continue reading →
