A STARTUP Is a Temporary Organization Designed to Search
for A Repeatable and Scalable Business Model
1. THERE ARE NO FACTS INSIDE YOUR BUILDING, SO GET OUTSIDE
2. PAIR CUSTOMER DEVELOPMENT WITH AGILE DEVELOPMENT
4. FAILURE IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE SEARCH FOR THE BUSINESS MODEL
4. IF YOU’RE AFRAID TO FAIL YOU’RE DESTINED TO DO SO
5. ITERATIONS AND PIVOTS ARE DRIVEN BY INSIGHT
6. SUCCESS BEGINS WITH BUY-IN FROM INVESTORS AND CO-FOUNDERS
7. NO BUSINESS PLAN SURVIVES FIRST CONTACT WITH CUSTOMERS
8. VALIDATE YOUR HYPOTHESES WITH EXPERIMENTS
9. NOT ALL STARTUPS ARE ALIKE
10. AGREE ON MARKET TYPE – IT CHANGES EVERYTHING
11. STARTUP METRICS ARE DIFFERENT FROM EXISTING COMPANIES
12. TRACK PROGRESS CONVERTING HYPOTESES INTO FACTS
13. FAST, FEARLESS DECISION-MAKING, CYCLE TIME, SPEED AND TEMPO
14. IF IT’S NOT ABOUT PASSION, YOU’RE DEAD THE DAY YOU OPENED YOUR DOORS
15. STARTUP TITLES AND FUNCTIONS ARE VERY DIFFERENT FROM A COMPANY’S
16. PRESERVE CASH WHILE SEARCHING. AFTER IT’S FOUND, SPEND
17. COMMUNICATE AND SHARE LEARNING
18. STARTUPS DEMAND COMFORT WITH CHAOS AND UNCERTAINTY
