The fundamentals

Problem:

People, often do not realize they have one. Establish that need

Market:

Customer habits are changing. Keep the dynamic market place in view as you plan and foresee the future

Funding:

Investors are usually ready, when you are ready. They increase their stake when they see you have enough at stake already and on the verge of that big leap

Intelligence:

Rely more on insights than information

Technology:

People have information at their fingertips –Use this opportunity

Competition:

You do not have to re-invent the wheel, just have enough value adds

Entrepreneur:

You are the perfect change agent

Cost:

Focus more on LTV (Life time value) than CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost)

Pricing:


Never attempt to sell solution through a price. Sell the price through the solution.
