Words of Wisdom from Guy Kawasaki’s new book The Art of the Start:
There are seven milestones that every startup must focus on. If you miss any of them, your organization might die.
• Prove your concept.
• Complete design specifications.
• Finish a prototype.
• Raise capital.
• Ship a testable version to customers.
• Ship the final version to customers.
• Achieve breakeven.
It seems simple enough, but some companies can’t seem to move through this seven step plan.
