If you’re a scalable startup, you want to spend small amounts of money (seed capital) as you run experiments testing your hypotheses. In normal times, when there aren’t dollars to undo mistakes, you use Customer Development to find product-market fit. Why small amounts? No startup ever spends less then it raises.

Risk capital has emerged in China, India and other countries where risk taking, innovation and liquidity is encouraged, on a scale previously only seen in the U.S. The emergence of incubators and super angels have dramatically expanded the sources of seed capital. Entrepreneurship as It’s Own Management Science.

When the product and channel are bits, adoption by 10’s and 100’s of millions and even billions of users can happen in years versus decades. Continuous innovation requires the imagination and courage to challenge the initial hypotheses of your current business model (channel, cost, customers, products, supply chain, etc.)

I just launched a small online retail business last week, and feel a bit lost about marketing ideas and how to get the most out of social media channels. Curate great links for your ideal customers and share them 3 times per day. We are raising seed capital, but would like to have a US tech investor. Hope that helps.
Expert insights. Personalized for you.
