Most start-ups fail.
And they die remarkably young: The typical start-up lasts 20 months and burns through $1.3 million in financing before closing its doors.
So what's the formula for success for those start-ups that make it through the early trials, leveraging their early success into either getting acquired or issuing an IPO (initial public offering)? What are the lessons that first-time entrepreneurs and employees need to know to navigate their way to success?
The Ultimate Start-Up Guide offers practical advice, insights, lessons, and best practices from the world of start-ups, including:
- Strategies for hiring and building your team, culture, and values.
- How to pitch your company, secure funding, and distribute equity.
- Best practices in launching your business.
- How venture capitalist investors think, evaluate new companies, and advise entrepreneurs.
- War stories and red flags from top VC partners and entrepreneurs.

Store description
In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused.

We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others.
