Seeking startup validation

This post was written by Matt Douglas, Founder & CEO. Follow him on Twitter @mattdouglas

When I started MyPunchbowl, I spent a lot of time talking to colleagues and networking with people in startups. Part of my goal was to learn more about how to start a company, but the more I reflect on that period of my life, the more I realize that I spent a lot of energy and time seeking validation of my startup from those around me. With that in mind, the Startup Swami (aka me) has written a post dedicated to those who are trying to start a company or grow a startup. The post was fun to write — it rolled right off of my fingers. So without further ado, here’s today’s Startup Swami post: Your Startup Sucks. Enjoy.

    Matt,

    It made me laugh! Glad you don’t let the naysayers get you down. Now get back to work!
