5. Dos and don‘ts
Start early—the time is now
Talk to anyone—no reason for stealth mode
Build and test—let early adopters decide
Focus, with love and simplicity—reduce complexity
Raise late and wisely—there is no going back
Hire carefully, fire fast—the team is essential
6. How to get started
TechCrunch, blogs like Paul Graham‘s or Brad Feld‘s
Ask the VC, podcasts—for a start and not too much
Books—if you like to educate yourself in detail
Rework—37signals as an example and for the right mindset
The Lean Startup—Eric Ries on how to try and error, then repeat
Crush It!—Gary Vaynerchuck kicks you in the ass to finally get going
Do it, with co-founders (not just friends), or get help
—from mentors, accelerators or incubators (f.e. Seedcamp)
