“A startup is a temporary
org. in search of a scalable,
repeatable, profitable
business model”
Steve Blank, Bob Dorf,
“The Startup Owner's Manual: The Step-By-Step Guide for Building a Great Company”, 2012
All start-ups are unique!
Easy to say HOWTO -
harder to do it!
“Bootstrapping….
…starting a business without
external help or capital.”
Bootstrapping, Wikipedia. Accessed August 13th 2015
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping#cite_note-15
“A startup is not a
smaller version of a
large company”
Steve Blank, Bob Dorf,
“The Startup Owner's Manual: The Step-By-Step Guide for Building a Great Company”, 2012
So don’t run it like it is!
Major take home today!
Getting started
• Company - What is it?
• Product (s) - What are you selling?
• Customers - To whom?
• Process/Method - How?
• Organisation - Who calls the
shots?
Getting started II
Then adapt and adapt and….
“Winners recognise their
startup is a series of
untested hypotheses
(guesses) that need testing”
Steve Blank, Bob Dorf,
“The Startup Owner's Manual: The Step-By-Step Guide for Building a Great Company”, 2012
“Planning is
guessing”
David Heinemeier Hansson, “Unlearn Your MBA”, Stanford, 2010
http://ecorner.stanford.edu/authorMaterialInfo.html?mid=2353
The Product/Service
• Is it unique?
• Will anyone pay for it?
• If NOT unique?
• Why choose yours?
Getting (the first) customer(s)
• Network, Network, Network
• Hard work/Persistence
• A good product or service!
• You need to do the selling
“The first 10 customers
should be sold by you,
the CEO or founder”
Sean Jacobsohn, Venture Investor, “Your First 10 Customers Can Make Or
Break You”, techcrunch, Aug 30, 2015
http://techcrunch.com/2015/08/30/your-first-10-customers-can-make-or-break-
you/?ncid=tcdaily#.omd8fz:R9Oy
Keeping customers
• Deliver
• Quality in the product
• Great service
Getting
vs
Keeping
Risks
• Internal disagreements
• Going after a Big deal/
customer - that doesn’t fit
• Panic => Bad decisions
• Expanding too fast
In the end…
Try to make more money
than you consume!
