Every startup should start with a small market and monopolize.  Amazon started with books. Facebook with Harvard.

Disruptive technology means a distracting challenge to a large competitor. Instead work within an ecosystem. Paypal worked directly with credit card companies and grew their market.

Startup messed up at its foundation cannot be fixed.
Small board (ideally 3 members for effective governance)

On the inside, each person should be distinguished by her work. Clarity reduces conflict.

Salespeople. Title has nothing to do with it. Investment bankers. Business development. etc. Even academia is sales and promotion.

Engineer wants product to sell itself. (But that doesn't happen, typically.)
