startups.
Whether you're a startup, existing business or an aspiring college entrepreneur starting your dream out of your dorm room, Entrepreneur Myths gives you the education not found in any textbook, MBA program or entrepreneur group. Most of the material is available only to those in the inner circle with money and time to burn. Damir Perge shatters the entrepreneur myths you may not even know are hurting your business. As both a venture capitalist and entrepreneur, he has seen the ideas and business practices that are out of date or pure misconceptions about entrepreneurs. These “entrepreneur myths” have been acquired from media, word-of-mouth, other entrepreneurs and from entrepreneur-published books focusing on the psychobabble aspect of starting a business. Don’t fall for them. His experience in raising more than $50 million in capital and funding dozens of startups in all parts of the world will help novice as well as experienced entrepreneurs with the uncertainties that arise when tackling the most daunting challenge - the startup. A few of the 50 common entrepreneur myths include: - You’ll be your own boss - All it takes is a great idea - Venture capitalists are vultures - Raising big money is harder than small money - Valuation is based on numbers - Angels are angelic - You need capital to develop a product or service - You must have an office - The journey is the reward Entrepreneur Myths focuses on providing real world, real-time advice. Things move rapidly in the land of entrepreneurship. Look at the current velocity of high-valued tech companies in Silicon Valley and Silicon Alley. No one can predict how long high valuations will last but it proves the point that rapid innovation in the marketplace brings down existing beliefs about entrepreneurship. This book was written for the new generation of entrepreneurs who are creating the next Twitter, Foursquare, Zynga, Wooga, LinkedIn, Chipotle, Taco Diner, Tesla Motors or Facebook. Looking for theory? Buy another book. Damir wrote it in the same words he uses when discussing entrepreneurship with his friends over a cappuccino or beer, so don’t be shocked to find a curse word or two. BONUS Includes two questionnaires with answers: Are you are an entrepreneur? and Should you start your venture?
