5 LESSONS I'VE LEARNED FROM SUCCESSFUL STARTUPS

I've been lucky enough to attend various capital raising conferences, tech pitch competitions, and other startup-related seminars which have provided me with invaluable lessons on what it takes to be a successful startup. In this video, I'll share with you 5 patterns winning startups portray to ensure a successful start in any entrepreneurial journey. 1. The value proposition has to be clear and concise - must be articulated in a few sentences. 2. The team must be able to then execute the value proposition because the technology doesn't always win. So, the initial founders must focus on their strengths and team up with people who complement their weaknesses. 3. Scan the environment and don't be inwardly focused. Constantly listen to your end consumers/users, observe the market around you, take notice of changes, and make strategic pivots when necessary to stay competitive. 4. Seek out mentors/coaches/advisors. For quality early-stage companies, incubators and accelerators are a great support - be sure to not get caught up by the space they provide, but rather the programming/support services they offer (coaching, connections, etc.). 5. Constantly kill your idea before someone else does it for you. Don't just focus on the positives and don't be too emotionally attached to your idea/product. Find naysayers who will destroy your idea/product and try to course-correct the weaker parts. There are always ways to improve/perfect the idea/product, but you have to be open to listening to both side (the good & bad). ________________________________ Follow me on Instagram: @khalifestyle Facebook: Khalifestyle LinkedIn:   / georgekhalife   Personal Blog: www.georgekhalife.com Like, comment, subscribe!
