The No-Bull-Shiitake Investor Wishlist by Guy Kawasaki
You may never try to raise money from a venture capitalist, but unless you’re a trust-fund brat, you’ll probably have to raise money from someone to fund a business. Two pieces of advice before you begin:
First, don’t confuse fundability with viability. Only a few thousand companies a year raise venture capital. These companies are fundable in the sense that they have fooled a venture capitalist into believing that they can achieve sales of at least $100 million per year within five years. Thousands of other companies failed this fundability test—or, more likely, didn’t bother trying to raise venture capital.
