Savvy Advice on How to Launch a Successful Startup

 

When it comes to starting a company, there are often more ways to fail than succeed. Where do you even begin? You can burn through cash; pick the wrong partners, employees, or suppliers; set unrealistic expectations; arrive too early or too late to the marketplace; take advice from the wrong people; pattern yourself after the wrong model; or simply wear down from all the stress. Even if you get over the hump, you can still lose everything by growing too fast or failing to establish your brand or internal culture.

So what can you do to increase your chance for success? As part of Poets and Quants’ Top 100 MBA Startups series, we interviewed several MBAs-turned-entrepreneurs on how they were able to thrive after graduation. From the wisdom of launching a company in school to how to pick a co-founder, check out the link below to see what’s been working for MBAs in the startup community.
