Why Strategy is Key to Startups/SMBWhy Strategy is Key to Startups/SMB
• According to the Small Business Administration, about
600,000 new businesses/year are started in the U.S. :
Only about 2% of startups are able to attract VC funding- Forbes.com
More than 95% of start-ups fail to give projected return on investment – The Wall Street Journal
An estimated 30% to 40% of high potential U.S. start-ups fail to the extent of liquidation - The Wall Street Journal
• Biggest reasons of failure are:
Lack of Customer’s perspective and lack of Customer Connect & understanding of its business requirements
Lack of structured strategy in terms of profitable business models and clear & concise value propositions
Lack of unique value proposition and no real differentiation in market
Confused market positioning
• Conclusion- A well articulated-structured Strategy is
missing link in a typically failed startup /SMB firm

What Are The Key Missing LinksWhat Are The Key Missing Links
• Poor planning for products & services development
• Higher Time to Market due to exhaustive scopes
• Unfocused as targets multiple untested opportunities
• No Supporting Marketing Cover: High focus on Tech.
• Cohesive Strategy & Speedy Execution are missing links
• Weak understanding of the customer requirements
• Non Tracking & aligning periodically with shifting markets
• Weak Ecosystem & non sustainable revenue Model
• Non involvement of industry & market consultants

Statements Overlooking Consultant’s Role: Risk Associated Without Consultants
We have enough knowledge of market Not targeting right market segment, leading to landing into low
potential markets , even no accurate market size data
We know our customers and their requirements If products/sols. are as per customer needs, then it should be sold
like hot cake, does it happening ?? If not then something missing
We have considered all data & facts while
designing our products, solutions & services
There is always some limitations in getting, right kind of market
related data without involving professional firms who have wider
market data access and proven methodology of market research
We have all insights of players, we know how to
position our products/services
Accurate competitive landscaping is very important before
positioning prod./solutions, positioning in market without any
detailed & strategic market analysis may trap you in wrong places
We are confident with our pricing & revenue
model, its working well with other startups/firms
Have you prepared answers to strategic questions like what is
going to be your dominant strategy ? What is the color of your
strategy Red or Blue ?? Risk: Missing strategy & aligned planning,
execution
We are well networked in our industry, so
ecosystems are already in place
Mere networking doesn’t create a value oriented marketing
ecosystem, Value Analysis needs to be applied to create potentials
based ecosystem, missing links in ecosystem means losses
We have strong, exp. team & all skills sets, don’t
need any external resources like consultants
Strong team is basic requirement for success, but team should
focus on core works, limited team size creates bandwidth
constraints, external consultants ease out bandwidth constraints
Market Consultants-Do we need ??Market Consultants-Do we need ??
Typically consulting proposals stamped with negative business case- but it has risksTypically consulting proposals stamped with negative business case- but it has risks
