Vijay Anand discusses key stages of a company and the challenges of being an entrepreneur. He emphasizes that as a startup it is important to avoid consultants and MBAs, and quotes Guy Kawasaki's view that they are the two people to stay away from. Anand explains the differences between a mentor, coach, advisor and consultant. He stresses the importance of engaging the right advisors to provide a disjoint perspective and increase the board valuation of a company. The advisor works with the entrepreneur, not for them, and chemistry and trust are very important factors in the relationship.

4 Indicators That A VC Is Right For Your StartupAvalon Ventures
Today there are more funding options for early stage startups than ever before. This increase in venture funding is mainly due to the emergence of non-traditional investors such as hedge funds and mutual funds. In this slide deck you will learn how to determine which VC is right for your startup.
5 Things to Remember In the Changing Landscape of VCAvalon Ventures
The VC landscape has changed more in the past three years than in my almost 20 years as a VC. For entrepreneurs, there’s never been a better time to start something. For early stage VCs, the investing space is becoming more competitive, which is healthy and good for the startup ecosystem. VCs who see themselves as stewards, or coaches of their founder’s creativity and talent, will retain their value. By contrast, VCs who seek to control companies, slavishly adhering to a numbers game, may very soon find themselves replaced by other sources of investing that allow them to retain more ownership of their idea. Here are five things VCs need to remember in the changing landscape.

3 Reasons Why Your Startup Is Struggling To Raise Venture CapitalAvalon Ventures
Now it’s a great time to start a company. Not only is there more capital available, but the costs to start a company have decreased significantly. Yet many companies are still unable to raise funding early enough to get off the ground.

There are three common mistakes that early stage companies make when pitching to VCs.

Every forward-thinking firm seeks to nurture its employees, and most will say they already do, but intrapreneurship goes further. It’s about embracing creativity and innovation, and enabling employees to turn ideas into something of real value to the business.

How to Improve Your Venture Capital Pitch In 5 WaysAvalon Ventures

How To Set Expectations With Investor DirectorsAvalon Ventures
Setting expectations with investor directors is critical for your board, and you should expect the same from an investor whether or not he is a member of your board. This deck is for entrepreneurs as part of a series of observations and tips on building an effective board.
A company is in Prime when form and function are in balance. The what and the how are in balance. Prior to Prime, function is more important than form. In other words, what we do is more important than how we do it. After Prime, how we do it is more important than what we do. That is why, after Prime, how you do something and whom you know is more important than what you do. In Prime, the what and how are in balance. In Prime, the company is both flexible and in control. Prior to Prime, the company is flexible, but not very much in control of itself. After Prime, control is very high, and the company loses flexibility. In Prime, flexibility and control are together.
However, in a company in Prime, the management is not as flexible as before Prime, because there is professional management: The tendency to depend on any single indispensable individual does not exist as it does in younger companies. On the other hand, in Prime, the organization has a strategic outlook without losing attention to detail. Furthermore, the organization does not look only at detail without losing its strategic outlook, so the company in Prime has controlled flexibility, and it doesn’t depend on any single individual.
How to get what you want (and move -- fast -- when you don't)Leslie S. Pratch
Not everyone is equally good at all parts of the "private equity person" role – some investors are better at sourcing deals, buying companies, or raising money than at being director or leading the Board. To be great at guiding portfolio companies, you need to know when and how to work with a CEO who will not always (or maybe ever) be pleased with the Board. Getting each party to do their part in achieving the aims of the investors – a job they must do together – benefits from planning, skills, and knowledge.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
