“You need three things to create a successful startup: to start with good people, to make something customers actually want, and to spend as little money as possible.” – Paul Graham. Have you ever considered working for yourself; ergo, opening your own startup? There is little doubt that, for a lot of people, self-employment, albeit riskier than full-time employment, is preferable than working for a boss.

A lot of people start their business with dreams of one day potentially selling it or having it acquired. If you are just starting out as an entrepreneur or you have a business idea you want to pursue, you may be wondering why you even need to think about selling your business at this stage. Even if you aren’t planning to sell, building your business thoughtfully and with an eye toward making it highly acquirable is an effective way to build a healthy business.

It’s time for more entrepreneurs to reset their focus, and shift their thinking to completely different ways of doing things. Everyone talks about innovation, but the majority of business plans I see still reflect linear thinking – one more social network with improved usability, one more wind-farm energy generator with a few more blades, or one more dating site with a new dimension of compatibility.

Bad clients are bad for business. They can take an inordinate amount of time to service. They can complain about the irrelevant. They may not pay their bills, or at least drag out the payments forever. They can be a huge emotional drain. Or, more often than we care to know, they can be all of the above. One course of action is to fire the bad client.

It is no secret that many individuals from all walks of life are on rather tenuous ground in reference to their financial position. A growing number of consumers are now being forced to work longer hours simply to make ends meet and on occasion, a second job may even be required. These are some of the primary reasons why many are now beginning to look elsewhere to encounter viable propositions that will enable them to enjoy sustainable wealth from a long-term perspective.

This is definitely the only blog post I’ve written from a Milan airport lounge, returning from my first trip abroad since we started Homebrew. So what got me out of my San Francisco routine? The chance to work with a group of global mayors to help push thinking forward on how cities and technology companies can work together productively. Cities are my DNA and where I feel happiest – raised in New York and now for the past 20 years in San Francisco.

My sons Teddy and Jay Jay are sports crazed 9 and 10 year old boys and so springtime means only one thing to them - Little League Baseball. And a blessing in my life over the years has been coaching their teams. Let me first note that I started coaching out of a sense of obligation. I have two boys playing on the same team and folks willing to donate copious amounts of time and energy to manage and lead youth sports teams are always in short supply.

Starting May 31st, we will officially be Roomify and showing off our new look to the world! That’s right, we gave ourselves a makeover. And it’s more than a simple name and logo change. See, our story all began when Sagar Hemani and I were entering college. College shopping simply sucked. We spent days running around with our parents trying to figure out everything we needed for our tiny dorm rooms.

I’ve been involved with several startups where a giant incumbent attacks you and tries to sue you out of existence. When you first receive the threat it feels like the local pizza shop when they first get a call from the local mafia boss and you can feel the shake-down coming. The first instinct is fear, then dread, then panic. You begin to think about how hard it will be to fund raise, sign customers, hire employees, etc. with the cloud of a lawsuit hanging over you.

It’s pretty well known that startups usually undergo a meaningful change in Board composition at their Series A round. At a minimum, the lead investor(s) of the round get Board seats; although they shouldn’t get Board control. Less has been written about what startup boards tend to look like before a Series A round. Given that the time from formation to Series A has stretched out significantly for many companies in the market — due to pre-seed, seed, seed plus, seed premium, series seed, seed p
