...principal 😉

[Eric Klose @EricKlose]

As a child, I learned "the principal will be your pal" as spell-check vs moral principles. Grade school failed to prepare me to discuss loan principle.

I just learned of the #ZimAgricRising hashtag and am inspired reading all of the accomplishments!

From @TechCrunch, I like revshare for VC, but find many startups get lured back to growth at all costs by industry talking points

Just in time for Thanksgiving, our 2nd @farmsteadapp hub is now open!

We went from 0 to launch in under 3 weeks. The first of many more to come.

@theobserver covered the launch with a video of our hub manager sharing an inside look at the warehouse.

@GroundVentures Obviously, context specific! But debt on favorable terms is too often never considered by startups. If you’re successful, the equity you sell is super expensive (which is why investors sign up for the risks ☺️)

[Eric Klose @EricKlose]

This is a great post! Simple and straightforward retention tracking. My only quibble is that many startups should be tracking this weekly, not just monthly

[Jeff Chang @JeffChang30]

New post today 🚀

Retention is one of the most important growth metrics

However, it's not easy to measure so often it is measured incorrectly

I wrote a step by step guide with examples on how to measure retention correctly with cohorts

Here it is!

As investors, most of us won't know our financial ROI for years. In the short term, how can we evaluate our successes and positive impact on emerging markets?

[Eric Klose @EricKlose]

I'm biased - Wayfair taught me that if something is hard, others probably avoided it so you're on to something and should keep going ... but at some point that's just masochism 🤣

[Eric Klose @EricKlose]

Knowing when to pivot and when to persevere is tough, and can make or break a startup.

But pivoting can be a dodge to avoid challenges. Teams and their boards have the hard task of knowing the difference between a strategic pivot and problem-avoidance.

[Eric Klose @EricKlose]

As an investor, I get a lot of red flags from entrepreneurs ‘pivoting’ without a plan, in what really just seems like seeking the path of least resistance. When do you change course for an easier way, and when do you go uphill?
