Why I Turned Down $500K

Tim Romero

"I am not particularly risk-averse, but I pay attention to risk and reward. As an investor, I probably would have told me to take the money and try to make it work. But the risk-reward equation for investors is different than it is for founders."

Lessons I Learned as a First Time CEO

Talia Goldstein

"Another benefit of pursuing strategic partnerships is that it forces you to define your product or service in relation to other players in the market, and may encourage you to develop a synergistic offering that adds value to both the dominant market players and end users."

Making a Great First Impression

Gil Ben-Artzy

"Not all entrepreneurs are necessarily charismatic extroverts — and that's ok. However, in order to turn a technology into a business they need to be pro-active about presenting their thoughts."

We've Made 10 Layoffs

Joel Gascoigne

"Although I know rationally that the size of the team is not something to celebrate, I feel that I slipped into that harmful mindset quite a bit over the last year. Not everyone is familiar with growth metrics like monthly recurring revenue, but team size is easy to understand."
