Colors: La Nuit XI

I’m publishing this series on LinkedIn called Colors to explore a topic that I care deeply about: the Renaissance Mind. I am just as passionate about entrepreneurship, technology, and business, as I am about art and culture. In this series, I will typically publish a piece of art – one of my paintings – and I request you to spend a minute or two deeply meditating on it. I urge you to watch your feelings, thoughts, reactions to the piece, and write what comes to you, what thoughts it triggers, in the dialog area. Let us see what stimulation this interaction yields. For today – La Nuit XI

Roundtable Recap: March 7 – Do Not Reinvent the Wheel

During this week’s roundtable, we had four different discussions on startup strategy. In multiple cases, I see new entrepreneurs trying to ‘wing’ a startup process. Well, startup methodology exists. Please learn how to apply existing methodology. Do not reinvent the wheel.

TeammateMe

First Daniel Armani from Fremont, California, pitched TeammateMe. This is a classic chicken and egg situation. I don’t believe the strategy that was pitched will work.

Laztwordz

Next, Arun SP from Bengaluru, India, pitched Laztwordz. The idea needs a validation strategy and a GTM with velocity. I recommended two of my newly released Udemy courses:

Validation for Tech Startups by Sramana Mitra

B2B Sales Strategy for Tech Startups by Sramana Mitra

Unihub

Then, Rajmund Stolarczyk from Stettin, Poland, pitched Unihub. Here too, those two courses on Validation and B2B Sales Strategy would offer invaluable structure.

Beunik

From Envigado, Colombia, Andres Dominguez pitched Beunik. I recommended a switch in mindset from B-to-C to B-to-B.
