Lessons Learned from Building Two Startups

It’s not easy to start a company but it’s worth it!

Only work on ideas and projects that are important to you.

It’s more fun to run a company without venture capitalist (VC) backing.

Going virtual can dramatically improve your quality of life.

It’s difficult to get customers. Start marketing now.

Big is not necessarily better. Simple products can transform entire industries.

Select co-founders who share a common vision but have different skillsets.
