7. Don’t start with a bad Idea!
What are you building and why?
Who desperately needs your
product?
8. The founders
need to have
shared sense of
mission.
How big is the
market and how
fast it’s growing?
Build something
fundamentally
NEW.
The best ideas
sound bad, so
TALK about it.
9. What if I don’t have an idea but
want to start a startup?
Maybe you shouldn’t!
Learn about a lot of different
things, practice noticing problems,
work on projects you find
interesting and be patient.

life when tricks stop working

15. Know the
customer
very well
Founders need to do
sales, customer
support, etc.
Recruit customers
manually, and make the
products so good the
customers you recruit
tell their friends.
16. 1. Don’t Plan too far out.
2. Don’t batch everything into
one big public release.
3. Don’t make product too
complicated.Very often the
product isn’t
good enough.
If the company
isn’t growing
Talk to your
customers.
If you don’t
know what to do
next with your
product
Best founders care a little too
much about product quality.
Remember, if you haven’t
made a great product,
nothing else will save you.
18. You have to turn it into a
GREAT COMPANY
You have to do it YOURSELF
Anybody else
• Won’t understand customer
as well
• Wont have the same
product instincts
• Won’t care as much

The key to
GREAT
EXECUTION
GROWTH
Solves all the
problems

SINGLE METRIC
for the company
If the company is growing but
everything seems broken and inefficient.
It’s okay
Don’t think about problems
too far in future
10X
20. GROWTH
But
you need
good reason
It’s ok to have bad
unit economics in
the early days
Sales and
Marketing
are not bad
1 founder has to get
good at asking people
to use your product
and give you money
o Building products users love
o Big press launch
o Deals with other companies
o Recruiting users manually first
o Doing more of what works
o Testing lots of growth strategies
21. FOCUS&INTENSITY
You are not
different from
other startups
Only on your
PRODUCT &
GROWTH

common cause of
startup death is
doing too many of
wrong things

of conflicting
advice
The market
doesn’t care
how hard you
work
22. FOCUS&INTENSITY
Keep doing what they’re doing
Thinking about their personal brand and
enjoying the status of being a founder
Startup founders who
start to have initial
success have a choice

startup takes a
very longtime,
At least 10 years Don’t give up
