Calling all entrepreneurs: can we just keep it simple?
After all these years as a successful (sometimes) entrepreneur, do you want to know what I still struggle with the most? I can’t keep it simple. Ever. I break this cardinal rule of business constantly, without remorse. Whether it’s my posts or my emails or my plans or my experiments, it takes every bit of restraint I have not to write manifestos or to build the kinds of systems that would make Rube Goldberg wince.

How businesses can go carbon neutral
In 2019, the United Kingdom legislated a net-zero emissions target. A small step that paved the way to achieving their objective of being carbon neutral by the year 2050. In due time, they envision a quarter of Britain covered in trees, quieter roads, and the air clear from harmful fumes — a picture that pushes everyone to make a concerted effort leading towards the goal.

Debunking the unwritten rules of startup with Joe Procopio
What’s your favorite startup rule? What’s that one saying that you always fall back on when you’re having trouble pushing an idea into reality? Mine is “Go fast and break stuff.” In five words, it reminds me that everything I do is an experiment, nothing new is ever perfect, and I’ll never know if an idea works until I put it out there to potentially blow up in my face.

Your startup has competition, and you need to become their customer
Sign up for every product and service remotely like yours and start learning. In a recent issue of Teaching Startup, I answered an entrepreneur’s question about how to find customers for his startup’s minimum viable product (MVP). While the answer mostly focused on what type of customer prospect personas he should be seeking out, I also spent a little time talking about proactively infiltrating and disrupting his competitors.

Beat the startup founder stigma without a cofounder crutch
The worst reason to take on a cofounder is to add legitimacy. Starting a business is one of the easiest things you’ll ever do. You can literally do it right now. Dust off an idea that’s been in the back of your mind and start making world-conquering plans. Congratulations. You’re a startup founder.

For many small businesses taking on investors is an essential process. Many banks are reluctant to take a risk on startups with no parent companies and even established small businesses. This leaves entrepreneurs with very little choice but to look for investors who are willing to back their ideas.

The game’s afoot! Decoding problems to solve sales with Caroline Franczia and Sherlock Holmes
What do prospects want the most? They want you to make their time worthwhile. They need return on time invested before even thinking about return on investment. Better to investigate in advance to see if there is a fire and save everyone’s time rather than jumping straight into the merry dance of demos, POCs, and more. And who is better at investigating and deliberating than the famous or infamous Sherlock Holmes.
