如何成為持久發(fā)展的公司
Elements of Enduring Companies
一家創(chuàng)業(yè)公司如何成為持久發(fā)展的公司跪削,它需要具備這些條件:
Startups with these characteristics have the best chance of becoming enduring companies. We like to partner with startups that have:
目標清晰:在名片背面概述公司的業(yè)務(wù)螟凭。
Clarity of purpose: Summarize the company’s business on the back of a business card.
市場巨大:保證現(xiàn)有市場做好面對快速增長或變化的準備惕耕。 一個在十億美元潛在利潤道路上前進的市場劫拗,應(yīng)有一些容錯空間和回報時間去發(fā)展真實利潤谋币。
Large markets :Address existing markets poised for rapid growth or change. A market on the path to a $1B potential allows for error and time for real margins to develop.
富有的客戶:瞄準會迅速購買并會為獨特產(chǎn)品支付溢價的客戶载绿。
Rich customers: Target customers who will move fast and pay a premium for a unique offering.
聚焦:聚焦那些只購買具有突出價值主張的普通產(chǎn)品的客戶繁扎。
Focus: Customers will only buy a simple product with a singular value proposition.
解決痛點:選擇一個對客戶極其重要的東西晰洒,然后投其所好朝抖,為他們提供有力的解決方案。
Pain killers: Pick the one thing that is of burning importance to the customer, then delight them with a compelling solution.
不同凡想:不斷挑戰(zhàn)傳統(tǒng)智慧欢顷;采取逆向路線槽棍;創(chuàng)建新穎的解決方案;智勝對手。
Think differently: Constantly challenge conventional wisdom. Take the contrarian route. Create novel solutions. Outwit the competition.
團隊DNA:公司的DNA在最初的90天設(shè)置炼七。所有團隊成員都是他們領(lǐng)域最聰明或最機智的人 —— 一流創(chuàng)始人吸引一流團隊缆巧。
Team DNA: A company’s DNA is set in the first 90 days. All team members are the smartest or most clever in their domain. “A” level founders attract an “A” level team.
敏捷:不事聲張地快速行動通常有助于擊敗大公司。
Agility: Stealth and speed will usually help beat large companies.
節(jié)儉:把資金集中在至關(guān)重要的事務(wù)上豌拙。只在優(yōu)先項上花費并將利潤最大化陕悬。
Frugality: Focus spending on what’s critical. Spend only on the priorities and maximize profitability.
星星之火可以燎原:一個以少量資金起家的公司,必須強調(diào)規(guī)范和重點按傅。然而捉超,對于一個客戶們都如饑似渴地呼喚由偉大工程師開發(fā)的產(chǎn)品的巨大市場,只需要很小的火力便能將其點燃唯绍。
Inferno: Start with only a little money. It forces discipline and focus. A huge market with customers yearning for a product developed by great engineers requires very little firepower.
