Startup Reading List | April 03, 2015 |
Many of us will be hunting for Easter eggs this weekend. Others will continue their search hunting for product/market fit, funding, employees, or a job with a startup. This week's edition of carefully hand selected startup articles should help with all of those hunts.
Good hunting...

Joining a company in a great market means there will be tons of companies who want to hire you, and many high growth opportunities within your own company or across other companies in the same market." | | Jessica Livingston Great perspective here. Worth checking them all out. | | Sam Altman "If you're clearly in a position of leverage, it's fine to push for a high valuation, but don't jerk investors around. Just say what you want and don't get into a lot of back and forth or term complexity. Also remember that very high valuations often push out good investors." | | Bill Gurley "The funny thing about "hard numbers" is that they can give a false sense of security. Young math students are warned about the critical difference between precision and accuracy." | | Peter Kazanjy "A lot of people may think that a bad rep will only cost you three months of salary before you fire him. It's way more than that. It's the dozens of demos that a good hire in his seat would have been doing, leading to 20-30% conversions." | | | You are receiving this email because you believe that the best startup articles and videos are made by active members of the startup community. © 2009-2015 Startup Digest.
