In the startup world, the difference between good and great can make or break you.
After all, about 90% of startups fail (Embroker).
Of the 10% that make it, it’s a safe bet that the founder(s) played a pivotal role.
That’s why I wanted to share this advice from Selina Tobaccowala, co-founder of Evite and President of SurveyMonkey. According to Tobaccowala, great founders:
🔷 Have hard conversations with co-founders before they even start.
🔷 Nail the balance between internal vs. external time management.
🔷 Seek feedback as early on as possible.
🔷 Talk to their users a lot.
🔷 Know how to make hard decisions (e.g., raise more or sell?)
🔷 Talk with their employees to keep momentum.
