Unikorrn’s Post

The first of many more articles and successes Onyeka Nweze ACG! Your skill set and personality are Unikorrn’s and your winning formula.

This is the first article in the series of four. In February of 2023, I decided to publish 1 article per month, highlighting the value and roles of startup advisors. Shortly after publishing my second article, I gained two new startups to work with and that plan took a back burner. Thanks to some breathing room during the holiday season, I finally finished the 4th article and will now share them on LinkedIn over the course of the next 7-10 days. #startupsuccess #startupstrategies #startupfounders #startupgrowth #startupconsulting #startupculture #startupadvice #startup https://lnkd.in/eC9g4HFV

Sifted, a digital daily newsletter focusing on tech startups, recently shared a telling piece on founders discussing the closure of their ventures. Why is it important to openly address these technical failures? 1 - Because startup failures are primarily technical in nature. Whether it's the inability to find product-market fit, cash running dry, or key personnel suddenly going away, these challenges remain technical by nature, i.e. you're not a failure yourself, even though the business has failed. Startuppers often see their business as an extension of themselves. This is humanly understandable, but technically false. 2 - The stigma of failure varies across regions. While shame around business failures is prevalent in Continental Europe, Anglo-Saxon counterparts are more open about their setbacks. This is changing as European founders are embracing transparency on platforms like LinkedIn, bringing a more positive view about setbacks in the startup culture. 3 - Despite the profound impacts of business failure on one's life (family budget, friends turned investors, self-esteem, to name but a few) embracing the mindset of continuous learning is crucial. As Nelson Mandela famously said, "I never fail, either I win or I learn." This acquired knowledge can fuel future entrepreneurial endeavors or enrich other professional pursuits. Remember, while launching a startup involves assessing risks, understanding that failure is not the final chapter is key to resilience and growth.

As I mentioned in a previous post, when thinking about startup finance, startups have a lot to prove—and they need to be lean while they’re at it. Startups must balance growth priorities from investing in product development and marketing to making key hires versus the need to conserve their cash runway. FLG Partners partner Andrew Levitch penned this excellent piece examining the many dilemmas faced by startups trying to fund growth balanced against their need to conserve cash. Take a look to see how he unpacks the way companies should make these pivotal decisions: https://lnkd.in/g7ngRFnC #startupgrowth #cashflowmanagement #flgpartners #financinggrowth
