    Almost every founder we talk to is thinking about their “exit” from nearly the beginning. Angel investors frequently ask “what’s your exit strategy?” And at the seed and Series A stages, often founders talk about their exit strategy unprompted. We think that’s a mistake.
    Early on you should be focused on building a big and impactful company and dominating your market. Do that and the right monetization event will come along. But from the beginning, it’s important to understand how exits work and what possible outcomes may look like.
    Most first-time founders don’t realize how, when, and why common exit scenarios unfold. So let’s cover the primary ways an exit can occur, why and when they occur, and how to maximize exit opportunity value for you, your investors, and your team.

      You did great, Steve. That is great. Imagine you guys creating a movie relating the journey of en entrepreneur, from his idea, to his first fundraise, to his company being big. A real movie. A film. Would be amazing. 45mn or 90 ;-)

    Excellent. I appreciated that you emphasized what the main effort and focus should be: build a great business that's creating value for your customers. And, as you say, just keep this information in your back pocket.
    I hadn't realized, for instance, that it is 90% that end up in M&A. Huge number.

    Saying investors in the startup world are looking for "3x" sounds like a MUCH smaller multiple than I've ever come across before. I believe investors will typically be looking for at least 10x returns in startups.

    Wonderful stuff @Caya!!!
    I'm a soon to be entrepreneur from outside the US but I've always wondered how do I take the business from here to States allowing me to expand it while permanently residing in the US, basically transferring the business from here to there.
    And does it need to be up and running on the ground for me to do that or I can still do it even when it's still in idea stage?

    • @stevebarsh7727
      @stevebarsh7727 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can do it at any time. Just watch for tax issues. Consult a good attorney and/or accountant familiar with the issues from your home country.

    Does the approach of building a company changes if the intention is to get acquired? How to increase the odds of getting acquired?

    • @stevebarsh7727
      @stevebarsh7727 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      That’s the opposite of my point. Buliding to flip is not a great idea IMHO. Build to win and dominate as your “north stars”. That’s how you increase your odds of getting acquired.

      He meant that 90% from the 10% of the startups that survived & succeed (so 9% of them getting bought, while the 1% IPO)

      When the company is not completely shut down (a “crash”) vs a soft landing where most team members get a job, the company and IP have a new home, and investors may get some $ back.

    Research has been my secret weapon to making it this big in the general market.
    Its up to you to look into that avenue, find out how those markets work and find out which seems best for you. Take advantage of the foreign exchange rates to earn money and asset investment (spending on assets such as real estate and cryptocurrency in which equity and value will then grow. Will surely! I believe trading opportunities should be available to every one at every point in time.
