Startup Team

So your startup has graduated from the "building product" stage and has entered the "building usage" phase. But what does this mean for the team?

The first stage of a startup, what I call the Building Product stage, is management light. The team should be small.

When I left what I thought was my dream job to launch a start-up, I truly believed I was onto something huge. Initially, I was following my instincts; however, looking back, some key indicators reinforced my gut feeling. Think you're on the precipice of the next big thing? Ask yourself these questions first.
