KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Entrepreneurs who begun from start-ups have the edge. They got more experience and have gained more knowledge. Being a big-time entrepreneur doesn’t just happen in a snap, after reading all the business books. Apply it and re-learn it.
- When people want to learn, they go to the internet. Though it offers enough information, make sure your sources aren’t biased. What you might read might be heavily influenced a by a certain individual’s or business’ objective, which is to sell.
- What is the perfect deal?
- It’s ‘not exposing your capital and not borrowing from banks’.
- It’s the deal that suits you and what you can get done.
- The best dealmakers are always overwhelmed with deals. You don’t want ‘deal heat’, the urge to close a deal and move on the next one, to happen you. You don’t want to look desperate.
- 3 reasons why a part can’t sell:
- Too risky
- Scale paradox – ‘you have to get big to get big’
- Investing in small businesses is illiquid
BEST MOMENTS
- “Start-up is the rite to passage. You have to do a start-up to fully empathise with the entrepreneurial experience.”
- “People who start businesses are not necessarily the best at scaling them.”
- “Everything’s hard until you figure it out the first time.”
