Startup Therapy Podcast

Let's talk about what happens when funding is scarce. In the world of Startups and the struggles of keeping your business running, the fight is for you not to win. It’s more of a fight for you not to lose!

Most people focus on hiring more people, settling in a bigger office, or getting additional funding as a form of success. But for most Founders, at the early stages of their business, it’s all about taking away liabilities one at a time.

At the early stages of a startup, Founders often seek to partner with a co-founder in the hopes of growing the company. But what Founders don’t realize is that it may be too early to look for a partner, or even too risky.

Founders take it to heart when their business fails and often think that people will remember them for their failed business. Fact is, a founder’s path is always open to more job opportunities.

The biggest fear Founders have is what happens to the business when they take a much needed break. But guess what? With the right people in place, more than half of a Founder’s work can be done by someone else.

What if you have this strong conviction that what you’re building will lead to success? What if you have this strong sense of positivity and optimism? Will it be enough to gain people’s trust and continue to pour more money into your company? But what if it’s just blind optimism and you’re not really getting anywhere?
