10 THINGS I WOULD NOT DO AGAIN IF I WAS A START-UP

EPISODE 54

In the previous episode of The C Word podcast I shared the top 10 things I would do first if I was a start-up. I’m following that up in this episode with the 10 things I would NOT do again if I was a start-up.

I reflect on things I did in the evolution of my business that, with the benefit of hindsight, I would avoid or do differently now:

1) Paid Online Ads

2) Services Just for Revenue

3) Persist with Red Flag Clients

4) Free or Reciprocal Work

5) Tailor the Process or Timeline

6) Putting Client Work Before My Well-Being

7) Over-Invest in Meetings

8) Referrals

9) Evidence of Industry

10) Worry About What Others Think
