Henrik Torstensson's Weblog: Outcomes follow actions
http://torstenssonsweblog.blogspot.com/2015/03/outcomes-follow-actions.html
It is simple but not easy. March 3, 2015. When running a startup (or probably any organisation), it's important to remember that achieving a target or changing a specific metric require certain actions taken by specific people. One way to sanity check if a metric can be met at a specific time is to:. Understand what actions (a new feature, increased marketing etc) are the primary drivers of the metric. Estimate how long it will take to implement that action with a given number of resources. Angellist Syn...

Henrik Torstensson's Weblog: Swedish Syndicates Better Than Angellist? (if implemented by 3rd party)
http://torstenssonsweblog.blogspot.com/2013/09/swedish-syndicates-better-than.html
It is simple but not easy. September 30, 2013. Swedish Syndicates Better Than Angellist? If implemented by 3rd party). I got a comment to yesterday's post on Angellist Syndicates, unfortunately unsigned. Agree Frustrating that Syndicates are only applicable to Delaware based startups. My question is how long will it take for Angelist to move into the Nordics with Syndicates - or will someone copy the model first? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Henrik Torstensson's Weblog: Going beyond the 10 slides. Make sure your startup has a plan and a budget.
http://torstenssonsweblog.blogspot.com/2014/10/going-beyond-10-slides-get-yourself.html
It is simple but not easy. October 18, 2014. Going beyond the 10 slides. Make sure your startup has a plan and a budget. When raising seed or venture capital, having a traditional 10 slide presentation (plus backup slides) works well to communicate what your doing to traditional VCs and seed-stage investors and will go along way in raising capital. If you're building digital services for mobile or the web, guessing your revenue is very difficult and quite risky unless you have some sales already. So ...

Henrik Torstensson's Weblog: Freemium strategy and product business model design
http://torstenssonsweblog.blogspot.com/2013/03/freemium-strategy-and-product-business.html
It is simple but not easy. March 29, 2013. Freemium strategy and product business model design. I wrote that a freemium product needs to have at least one must have feature only available to paying users. That's a bit of a mental shortcut. Customers don't really pay for features, they pay to solve a problem. Like Ted Levitt wrote in the classic article Marketing Myopia: "People don't want to buy a quarter-inch drill. They want a quarter-inch hole! How does free and paid parts of the product interact in a...
