Review 10,000 Startups Legal Strategies For Startup Success
When I think of startups, I think of innovation and the importance of forming a great business plan. One which will attract outside investments and support sustainable revenue with the plan for fast growth in a designated market.
To learn more about the success of start-ups I picked up a book written by attorney, Roger Royse, who helps build great businesses for silicon valley.
10,000 Startups Legal Strategies For Startup Success is divided into useful parts. And Royse is straightforward in stating this book provides legal information but not legal advice.
I will point out some of the highlights I keyed in on.
PART 1. PEOPLE: ASSEMBLING A TEAM
I found part one to be beneficial and especially liked the examples provided with three alternative endings and the caveats to strategy and the importance of attracting and retaining team members.
I also liked the different scenarios and appreciated Royse sharing the moral of the story for his mountain biking pal.
PART 2. TECHNOLOGY: BUILDING VALUE THROUGH LEGAL PROTECTION
Startups are high-risk so it makes good sense that all business plans should start with good legal protection. This part provides excellent details on the execution of a startup.
PART 3: MONEY
Part three starts with a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson. And this section looks largely at predictions or projections of expectations or possibilities.
In view of all circumstances, you are not likely to succeed as a startup if you can't attract users who will actually pay for the product.
This section also looks at the importance of protecting assets with a patent and how to go about building capital.
PART 4: PLANNING AND STRATEGY
Part four looks at Mergers, Acquisitions, and Sales.
My attention was drawn to deal processes, Data Rooms, Insuring against breaches, and working capital adjustments.
In closing, I did enjoy studying this book as it was an interesting and educational read. And, I found the Appendices to offer valuable content as well. At this stage in my life, I have no intention of building a start-up company but my hats off to those of you that stick your neck out there and assist in accomplishing this very thing.
