Valuable Insights by Steve A startup with nice-to-have products will never succeed. Borrowing money from family and friends for your startup is a dangerous thing to do. There is a myth out there that you're going to have that epiphany in your head, and the world will love it. If you want to maximize your chance of success, don't take specific ideas. Having some knowledge of technology is very critical to starting a company. Build a team of people around you who are as obsessed with the company's success as you are. One of the core things you need to realize as an entrepreneur is that your job is discovery. Your job isn't to know the answers when you start. Your job is to go on a crazy journey. Know your competitors inside out. Smart entrepreneurs enter deep into their enemy's territory. If you take the risk out of your equation, you take the growth of your organization from your equation. Tips by Steve: Have 2 or 3 founders for your startup. Platforms are better than products. Build the team, then build the company. Copying is the best business model in the world. If your idea is not working out, then don't stick too long with the same idea. Software is the evergreen industry. Notable Quotes: [04:00] - The only reason that you should start a startup is that in your life, you have seen a need for something that isn't there, and you want to bring that need into life." [08:30] - Don't start a startup if you want an easier quality of life. [13:30] - Money is a funny thing. It can drive a wedge between family members, best friends, etc. [17:35] - To make the best decision for yourself, you must know what you're getting into. [19:42] - It's better to spend 80% of your time not building your product, not thinking of an idea, not talking to the customer but going out and finding the people you want to work with. [34:00] - Great entrepreneurs are the ones who gather the most information about their market, customers, competitors, etc. [55:40] - You can be nothing without taking risks. [1:00:10] - "People have bais, and we have to recognize this." [1:02:40] - Entrepreneurs die not because they give up on products too early. They fail because they stick with them too long.
