How to Start a Start-up

-


A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, but that step is far from easy. Every day, thousands of entrepreneurs around the world take the leap—but millions of would-be entrepreneurs don’t. What’s keeping them from starting their entrepreneurial journey? They don’t know where to begin, they don’t know how to start a startup, and they ultimately get stuck in endless Google rabbit holes reading the advice of “gurus” who’ve never actually done it before. We often forget that the most successful entrepreneurs in the world all started the same way. They didn’t know what the first step was or what they had to do, but they managed to take it and become the amazing success stories they are today. At Foundr, we talk to successful entrepreneurs every day, and they continue to share the latest and greatest (proven) advice on starting a business. Below, we’ve compiled tips, workarounds, and know-how from 13+ founders (who’ve actually done it) on how to start a successful business. Ready to start your startup? Take notes, and make it happen.
