Posted on June 11, 2009 by steveblank When my students ask me about whether they should be a founder or cofounder of a startup I ask them to take a walk around the block and ask themselves: Are you comfortable with: Chaos – startups are disorganized Uncertainty – startups never go per plan Are you: Resilient – at times you will fail – badly.

The Cinepak codec was written by the engineer who would become my cofounder at Rocket Science Games.) It still shocks me that marketing people in general don’t want to talk to customers, at all. I was the Senior Technical Writer for SMac from 1988-1991. Steve Blanks 30 years of Silicon Valley startup advice.

Post launch, if you gain traction, is where the business person will help take the load off of the technical folks. The business person can take all the meetings while the technical folks work on making the product better. Especially if you aren’t from around Silicon Valley. I look forward to your next update!
