  • The Downside of Professional Investors

    When you’re starting a business, finding investors may seem like the answer to all your problems. But in most cases you’d be wrong.

    It’s not that I don’t believe in the value of investors, because I do. But not right away, and here's why...

    In this episode you will learn:

    1. How taking investor money may harm your business.
    2. What you will be giving up in exchange for that money.
    3. Why timing matters (and how the wrong timing can cost you).
    4. Why it's worth the wait.

  • 3 Things Every Startup Needs

    Imagine a stool with only one or two legs. Pretty wobbly. Just as every stool needs three legs, so, too, does your startup. Here are the three things you need to get it right from the start.

    In this episode you will learn:

    1. How a lawyer can help you reduce risk (in ways you never realized).
    2. The many ways an accountant can help you (even if you already have a bookkeeper).
    3. How a business plan saves you time and money.
    4. A fair way to divvy up partner equity/compensation... before you've made any money!
