Don’t Listen To Advice
I did a post on Seattle 2.0 today called, "Startup Zen: Top 5 Ways to Approach the Downturn." In it, I mention 5 recommendations for startups when the economy is tough. The last recommendation was "stop listening to people." I think its important to look within your company. Talk to your team, your investors, and your customers. Otherwise, you are going to get wildly varying degrees of advice. Only your company knows what its relative strenghts and weaknesses are. I talk to entrepreneurs all of the time and they are always scrambling to get advice from a wide set of people who have no real skin in the game. Do yourself a favor and focus within. Check out the post in case you are interested.
