Startup Funding Espresso – Thriving on Chaos
Thriving on Chaos Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Startups have to go through the rollercoaster ride of highs and lows. There will be good times and bad times. Founders should identify what good problems are and what bad problems are. Good problems indicate you are doing well. These include the following: Increasing sales that outstrip your current team. Growing headcount such that you outgrow your current office space. Customers demand more products and services than you can supply. Bad problems indicate you are not doing well. These include the following: Another missed forecast, making it three in a row. The loss of key accounts, such as that you now have more employees needed. Customers are slow to sign up for the product, and retention is low. Startup founders thrive on chaos. It brings an energy to the startup that galvanizes the team. Learn the difference between good problems and bad problems. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _________________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: http://investorconnect.org Check out our other podcasts here: https://investorconnect.org/ For Investors check out: https://tencapital.group/investor-landing/ For Startups check out: https://tencapital.group/company-landing/ For eGuides check out: https://tencapital.group/education/ For upcoming Events, check out https://tencapital.group/events/ For Feedback please contact [email protected] Please follow, share, and leave a review.
