Being Small is Not a Strategy for Beating Your Competition
A meaningful percentage of my startup clients have no respect for their competition. Too many first-time founders have bought the story that big existing companies in their space are too slow to be a competitive threat. Or that “existing competitors aren’t as … Continue reading
Hey! Are You Trying To Be Some Kinda Why’s Guy?
You may already be familiar with Simon Sinek’s perspective on the fundamental reason why some companies succeed and some companies fail. If you are not, you’re missing an important business thought and I’m here to help…here is a link to … Continue reading

The Four Seasons of Your Start-Up…Summertime
Ah, summer. Margaritas by the pool. A little Kenny Chesney on the patio. Wearing flip flops to BJ’s (wait, that’s a different post!) But this is not life during summer inside a start-up company. It is certainly good news if you’re fortunate … Continue reading
Let Us Begin with the Beginning
And so, in conclusion, we project that our exit will occur on July 30, 2019. Perhaps the only aspect of your business’s future that is less certain than your 3rd year EBITDA, is the financial exit that you and your … 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 →
