Good entrepreneurs are all about managing change, but too many forget that they have to change themselves as their dream evolves from a startup to a scalable business. Most begin by doing the product development, marketing and sales alone, but struggle making the transition to hiring and coaching others, defining repeatable processes and focusing on future strategy.

by Yali Saar, CEO and co-founder of Tailor Brands. It’s now harder than ever for brands to be unique, and it’s not just because of our lack of innovation (aka the Uber for “x” disease).

I just read Nicolas Colin’s Brief History of the World (of Venture Capital). It’s a great romp through the history of entrepreneurial ventures and how they were financed – starting with loan deals brokered in coffee shops and ending with the PC boom which established venture capital as an asset class in 1970s and 1980s. The bit I liked the most described the role of Stanford in getting Silicon Valley going in the late 1950s.

Online, for a while, seemed like it was entirely the playground of the big businesses. There are millions of potential consumers out there to reach, but that’s the point if you’re locally based? Nowadays, the internet is good at spreading information to audiences on a micro scale as well as macro. There’s a lot of business that can be made in your local area, as you’re no doubt aware of.

I recently met Patrick Catanzariti aka ‘PatCat’ the founder of Dev Diner who really gets the need for collaboration. We had a chat about all things tech, the future of work and jobs, and how we all need each other. We need our different skill sets, so we can navigate and build the future we want. Hackers need Hustlers, who need Hipsters… it doesn’t matter if you cut code, or hack media for free PR – we can’t do it alone.

Share Being an entrepreneur is not about age or experience. There is no number to go by. Some entrepreneurs start at the age of 7, others begin their journey at the age of 70. That’s one of the more unique sides of entrepreneurism. If you have a product or plan that you feel strongly enough about then the only hurdles to overcome are the ones you build for yourself.
