If you can explain it to your grandmother, then most likely it has a real world aspect to it that normal people can relate to. If you’re debating a freemium model vs. Paid model then most likely you don’t have a physical product / service to sell.

The conventional wisdom is that starting a web business is (at least) 10x less expensive today than it was 10-15 years ago. It’s said that a decade ago, you needed millions of venture capital in order to launch an Internet startup whereas today, thanks to open-source software, cheap hardware and new ways to acquire users for free...

It’s not as though I completely adopted the “spray and pray” approach. As I explained in another post, active CEOs are more likely to invest in consumer facing companies, because the due diligence is easier. As Co-CEO of OLX, I have very little time to dedicate to angel investing so I have devised a mechanism to evaluate whether or not to invest in less-than-an-hour, although the “magic” is...

I asked Naval why he started the site and he explained how he was screwed by a venture capitalist at one of his startups. He started it to help entrepreneurs see more venture capitalists and be able to more effectively deal with them. Looks like his service is well along its way.

Your Greatest Ability Is Often Your Availability. Entrepreneurs should likewise endeavor to maximize their utility by playing as many positions on their startup team as they can effectively master. As discussed in Beach Volleyball, entrepreneurs generally enjoy simultaneously filling multiple roles during a startup’s early days.

To be clear, my viewpoint is looking at what it takes to make a seed accelerator successful. Think of the VC business model: not every VC fund is successful. (In fact, the median net return to VC fund investors has not been positive since 1998.) To be a continued successful seed accelerator program, you need to have a financial model that works, provide value to the companies that you...
