“Read this book right now so you can look your potential VC in the eye with confidence.” -David Meerman Scott, author of The New Rules of Marketing & PR

Finding the right venture capitalist to back your start-up is a challenge. Even if you manage to get backing, you want your VC to be a partner, not some dictator who will undermine your vision and take control of your life’s work.

Jeffrey Bussgang is one of a very few people who have played on both sides of this high-stakes game. Now he draws on his unique perspective to offer high-level insights, colorful stories, and practical advice gathered from his own experience as well as from interviews with dozens of the most successful entrepreneurs and VCs. He reveals how to get noticed, perfect a pitch, and negotiate a partnership that works for everyone.

Product Description
When childhood friends Eric Ryan and Adam Lowry decided to go into business together, they realized they didn’t just want to design a new version of someone else’s product. They wanted to reinvent an entire category-one that had hardly changed in decades. After months of searching for the right idea, they settled on, of all things, cleaning products.

If any consumer goods category needed a makeover, this was surely it. The dominant companies had been on top for more than a century and had bamboozled consumers into believing that the smell of bleach is the smell of clean and harsh toxic chemicals are the only means to a healthy home. And because cleaning is a chore, products should come in ugly, bulky packages – difficult to use and unpleasant to look at.

But what if people had products they actually enjoyed cleaning their homes and doing laundry with? What if those products not only worked great but also smelled nice and were safe for the environment? What if they came in beautiful bottles? What if doing chores could actually be fun?

Eric Ryan and Adam Lowry used $90,000 in capital (their combined life savings plus some loans from friends and families) to launch Method in 2001. In the early days, when they were selling surface cleaner out of the trunk of their car, it seemed crazy that they were competing with global conglomerates. But despite those modest beginnings and the overwhelming odds against a newcomer in this category, Method caught on to become a thriving, beloved company.

Ryan and Lowry attribute most of their success to their seven “obsessions”-the principles at the heart of Method’s business philosophy and culture. They include:

* Kick Ass at Fast: use small size to your advantage. By bringing innovations to market faster than your large, bureaucratic rivals, you can always stay one step ahead.
* Inspire Advocates: Rather than fighting costly battles for market share by trying to appeal to everyone, foster deeper relationships with fewer (but more loyal) customers.
* Win on Product Experience: Beyond satisfying your customers’ rational needs, try to design experiences that touch them on an emotional level.

The Method Method captures the irreverent attitude that makes people love the company. Ryan and Lowry don’t hesitate to tell stories about their failures as well as their successes. And they show what happens when giants realize that some scrappy startup is daring to do things not only differently but better.

The Start-Up of You: An Entrepreneurial Approach to Building a Killer Career

Comments No Comments »

 
 

Product Description

Most startups fail. But many of those failures are preventable.  The Lean Startup is a new approach being adopted across the globe, changing the way companies are built and new products are launched.

Eric Ries defines a startup as an organization dedicated to creating something new under conditions of extreme uncertainty. This is just as true for one person in a garage or a group of seasoned professionals in a Fortune 500 boardroom. What they have in common is a mission to penetrate that fog of uncertainty to discover a successful path to a sustainable business.

The Lean Startup approach fosters companies that are both more capital efficient and that leverage human creativity more effectively.  Inspired by lessons from lean manufacturing, it relies on “validated learning,” rapid scientific experimentation, as well as a number of counter-intuitive practices that shorten product development cycles, measure actual progress without resorting to vanity metrics, and learn what customers really want. It enables a company to shift directions with agility, altering plans inch by inch, minute by minute.

Rather than wasting time creating elaborate business plans, The Lean Startup offers entrepreneurs – in companies of all sizes – a way to test their vision continuously, to adapt and adjust before it’s too late. Ries provides a scientific approach to creating and managing successful startups in a age when companies need to innovate more than ever.
