Why you shouldn't launch your startup in the press

What's one way to maximize the potential success of your startup while minimizing risk? Make sure that your business and application are ready by testing on users before you make a big marketing push, says Eric Ries, author of The Lean Startup.

To Sell Your Business Model You Need To Visualize It: Vivid Thinking - by Dan Roam | Business Model Alchemist

From the article:

"At the heart of every business beat two essential elements: an idea and a plan.

 

An idea without a plan is just a dream. A plan without an idea is just a list. For a business to grow and thrive, it must have both.

 

Sometimes the idea comes first: “How about we make a computer screen you can touch?” Add a plan (design + manufacturing + marketing) and you’ve got the iPad. Sometimes the plan comes first: “What would happen if we sold something other than books the way Amazon sells books?” Add an idea (online shoes!) and you’ve got Zappos.

 

...

 

...once we’ve developed and tested business model, there’s still one more critical step towards making a living business: we need to sell it to partners, investors, and customers.

 

And that’s the second reason I love the “Business Model Canvas”: it provides us with the basis of the Vivid Story we’ll need to crystallize and communicate our idea.

 

When I say “Vivid” I mean something very specific: a Visual-Verbal-Interdependent idea; an idea made absolutely clear because it is expressed with both words and pictures."
