About Me

So you are here because you like me and my blogs and interested in startups -- more specifically, software startups.

Many of you are doing a 10 to 7 job but also dream of starting your own startup and face many challenges while stepping into this competitive world. That's why I am here to guide you for every bit of this journey.

Entrepreneurs and startup founders wear many hats because it is expected of them. They start out with organizing the company, then act as the first salesman, fund-raiser, paymaster, quartermaster, logistics, project manager, tech guy, and many others.

For technology startups, the founder is also sometimes the CTO and / or lead programmer, as well as the accounting and finance person. With a product in the pipeline, the founder also has his hands in the creative aspects such as product design, marketing, and branding.

Besides the day-to-day management and operations, an entrepreneur is also expected to be the go-to person when it comes to the fund sourcing.

The all-around nature of the entrepreneur is mainly because there is nobody else to do the job. Either the job has not yet been filled, contracted out, or there is not enough capital to cover a full-time employee for the role.

To keep up with the requirements of the job, the entrepreneur has to know something of everything. This can be accomplished by being involved with the right people who’ve had enough practice and excellent work experience, by working with the right people such as professionals/consultants, or even by outsourcing some business functions to a third-party provider.

Moreover, they can also keep their skill set updated with the latest trends in startups by picking up new and valuable skills. Fortunately, there are a lot of blogs aimed at the entrepreneur, which can greatly help startup founders keep up with the latest trends and learn new skills necessary for the job, or roles necessary for the business.

The best sources of advice about startups are entrepreneurs who have worked and are working with startups.
