Giving your startup a point of

“Great businesses have a point of view, not just a product or service.”

2009

You don't really need those features... yet. - garry's posterous

I need to remind myself of this sometimes. We are just getting started. There are must-haves and there are nice-to-haves. And the things that are burning in your heart to get into the product may not always fall into must-have.

What do founders spend their time on, after their product launch?

Building what they should have made.

post-launch

Build Product, Not PowerPoint (Even If You're Non-Technical)

And if you can't code, and you can't get brilliant coders to like and respect you, you probably shouldn't be an entrepreneur. There's no shame in being aware of your own abilities and steering your career accordingly.

Departments

Modern startups should only have two departments: the problem team (people in contact with customers and prospective customers, understanding and learning from their needs) and the solutions team (engineers designing and building solutions to those problems).

  • Money
  • Culture
