Startups are special creatures
• There Are No Facts Inside
Your Building, So Get
Outside
• Failure is an Integral Part
of the Search for the
Business Model
• If You’re Afraid to Fail
You’re Destined to Do So
• Validate Your Hypotheses
with Experiments
• No Business Plan
Survives First Contact
with Customers
• Startup Metrics are
Different from Existing
Companies
• Fast, Fearless Decision-
Making, Cycle Time, Speed and
Tempo
• If it’s not About Passion, You’re
Dead the Day You Opened your
Doors
• Startup Titles and Functions
Are Very Different from a
Company’s
• Preserve Cash While
Searching. After It’s Found,
Spend
• Communicate and Share
Learning
• Startups Demand Comfort with
Chaos and Uncertainty
