People starting a new business don’t like
thinking about failures.
However, 80% of startups fail within 18 months and the main reason behind this is
not their idea but problems like poor
strategy and funding.

1.
No One is
Going to
Fund Your
Startup

Money is one of the important ingredient behind success of any startup. VCs only finance about 1-2% of the
ventures they see. So don’t fool yourself in believing that you’ll raise money if you need funding to pay your bills.

2.
There Is No Co-Founder

Going solo might seem easy at first but it’s not. All the stress that comes with the workload is too much to
handle alone. Partners are needed to keep the morale and to brainstorm new ideas.

3.
You Ignore Your Customer
![Page 9: Top 6 Reasons Why Most Startups Fail](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042504/58837a5b1a28ab22688b62bd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Ignoring customers is the fastest way to failure. Don’t guess about their needs, listen to them to know it. Customers have their own
vision about the product and it’s your job to meet the expectations.

4.
Your Startup is in Stealth
Mode for Too Long
![Page 11: Top 6 Reasons Why Most Startups Fail](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042504/58837a5b1a28ab22688b62bd/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Stop waiting to perfect your product before launch. Too much time will change the parameters and demographics you were aiming for. Launch the product and adapt as you move along.

5.
The Team Doesn’t Have the
Competence
![Page 13: Top 6 Reasons Why Most Startups Fail](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042504/58837a5b1a28ab22688b62bd/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
A team is what makes or breaks up a business. Hire people who can complement each other’s strength and make up for the weaknesses. You have to attract and retain the correct
people for any chance of success.

6.
Thinking That Your Idea is
Special

Opening a new startup often leads to thinking that your product is
unique while in reality it most certainly is not.
Don’t ignore your
competitors if you want to succeed.

It is important that you spend some time to
understand what went wrong so
that you can work on it.
Take some time to fix what’s broken else you will have
no one but yourself to blame.
