Having problems naming your new baby, or Company have read
2007-11-27 08:57:00
I found this article posted in http://www.thenameinspector.com/ , it talks about naming your company and goes through some ideas and examines some companies already named.10 company name types on TechCrunch: Pros and consEvery once in a while The Name Inspector likes to step back and look at the big picture. This post illustrates ten name categories that account for all the names in the TechCrunch company/product index. Well, almost all of them. The name 1 800 Free 411 would have required its own category, and that would have made eleven categories instead of the magic ten. So let?s just ignore that name for now.Though most of the TechCrunch names are ?Web 2.0? names, there?s nothing particularly Web 2.0 about the categories. They all represent linguistic naming strategies that can be used for companies or products of any kind.Of course, there are different ways to categorize names. You can use phonetic properties like sonority or number of syllables. You can use semantic criteria, ...

Passion your secret weapon and your life saver, for your start up.

Some thoughts on the Cottage IndustryI was at a friends preview of her new exhibition over the weekend, Karen Willis, http://www.karenwillis.co.uk/ , she was born in the Shetland Islands now she works from the market town of Morpeth, Northumberland. Karen has shown an affinity for painting, winning awards for art at school and work published a national photography magazine. As a teenager she painted prolifically, selling to local Shetlanders and many tourists. The exhibition was at her home, she had her work, in every room aroudn the house, she had help from friends and family to support the event, she helps up and coming artistes, by letting them show there work as well.One off the things that did catch my mind was the passion and energy that she displayed , ash she spoke to customers and friends, about her work. This is something that will help you win in your own company, and it is a good sign or "tell" to investors as well, if they see genuine passion and energy from you as you ...

Some thoughts from the desk of an entrepreneur
2007-11-23 10:04:00
Some thoughts from the desk of an entrepreneurAs most of my readers know I have been working on a new start up project, based in Northumberland for the last three months, I have not mentioned much about it, just a few posts on things that have irked me a tad, at times, so today I thought it's time to share some of my thoughts on the process so far.Month one was spent pulling together a funding presentation, (that I thought was far to early) and visiting the customer base that exists. Pulling together the funding presentation was interesting, it was played in a three ring circle, which is not the best way to do things, there was some good help from the investment advisers "SIGMA", but it just took to long, the lesson learned here was that I should have made it clear what the consensus was on every ones part that was involved, there was a lot of Teflon shoulder stuff, all parties are busy,there never was a "come to Jesus" session to set things right, this is something that should hav...

Mergers and there success rate in Europe
2007-11-22 08:57:00
Nine out of ten mergers failOnly nine per cent of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in Europe over the past three years have achieved their stated objectives, according to research from management consultancy Hay Group. The survey of 200 business leaders also finds that under a third (28 per cent) say their merger created significant new value.The figures for the UK are even more alarming, with only three per cent of mergers rated as successful.One key reason for failure is the over-prioritising of systems integration over intangible assets and cultural compatibility, with some 58 per cent of respondents admitting this had been a problem. David Derain, a director of Hay Group who leads its work on M&A, says: ?Integrating intangible assets six months after a deal has gone live is too late. Companies should be examining the compatibility and differences between the two firms well before the deal is made public.?Little over a quarter (27 per cent) of companies surveyed analysed th...

A story of Risk and Reward

Risk EverythingI found this article this morning and it struck me as something that would kick start your Monday, the original can be found here http://foundread.com/2007/08/07/risk-ever ything/,I couldn't find the authors details, but you can hit the link and it will take you to there blog, some good stuff there.My story evolved over the course of eight years, but can be summarized in very few words. I founded a software company with technology I developed at NASA. I licensed the software, raised two rounds of venture capital, and ran the company for seven years. Then, as a result of increasing differences with my investors, it became clear that I needed to leave. End of story.That was two years ago. I am often teased by the prospect of returning to business. But since then I have been dedicating time to things I never made time for before. I have invested in my personal relationships. I learned Spanish. I bought a half interest in a 50? sailboat, and I am learning to sail.I have a...

Looking after yourself as a founder
2007-11-02 10:05:00
When to Take the Money Off the TableIn Vegas, if you keep on winning, you can keep on playing all night. But if you lose it all just once, you're done for good. The only way to ever get ahead in the long term, is to take some money off the table when you're lucky enough to have it.Pouring money back into your startup is a lot like betting at Vegas. Ideally if you keep winning you'll be able to keep pouring money back into more growth, and more profits. But if you lose just once and have already invested all the capital you had on reserve, you're done for.Startup founders need to learn the value of taking money off the table when it's available. Without knowing when it's time to write yourself a check, you may end up creating a payday for everyone else while putting yourself in jeopardy in the process.(Re)Filling your CoffersWhen you started the company you probably had some money saved up or some capital reserves to fall back on. That could have been anything from your home eq...

Not for the eyes of the Scottish executive or Parliment
2007-11-01 13:08:00
The trip to Edinburgh to pitch at the Connect Investment Conference, (www.investmentconference.co.uk/CIC/CIC_h ome.asp) was just, worth the effort, the last time I was there was to pitch my own company a few years ago, Rosebank technologies, with Callum Norrie, we were looking for a few 100ks, and there was no takers, it was, a couple of million or more, and any less and the VC's were not interested, you were left to the tender mercy of the Angel sharks. This time it was the reverse, there were medium funds present, from a few 100ks to a million, and only a trio of larger VC's. This is not the place to be if you want to raise a lot of cash, it is the place to be if you want to meet SE folks, lawyers, and other service support technologies, the pitches were polished and gave the bones of the stories, but I did come away with some sadness, as there was not a lot of energy in the pitches, or excitement, has the Scottish entrepreneur lost it? I do wonder where the future of Industry li...

Some food for the mind over the weekend
2007-10-26 09:47:00
The master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his information and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence at whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he's always doing both. -James A. Michener.We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.--Albert EinsteinBeware of Garbage Trucks By David J.

The Formula for Sustainable Success in Life, Leadership and Work- VPPVGVision: The external stuff. Sometimes our vision is clouded by the desires of others, sometimes our vision is clouded by false core beliefs that are the reflection of things we were told to believe about life, about work, about ourselves. But, the truth is that we cannot start to WIN the race with wolves, we cannot start to really create a roadmap that will help us engage our potential to achieve greater success and fulfillment in our lives and our work with out a clear vision of what we really seek. And, this clear vision cannot be the vision of those who love us, those who mentor us, those we work for, our parents, teachers, authority figures, spouses or partners. A clear vision is our own personal vision of what we truly want to achieve in life and work.Purpose: The internal and eternal flame.It is a known fact that most people spend more time deciding on which movies to go to than really thinking about their ...

The Anxiety of Waiting to be SuccessfulBecoming successful is a stressful process.Aside from the trials and tribulations of building a company we often create an entirely separate bucket of anxieties just worrying about our own career paths.We worry that we're not already successful enough. We worry that we're not growing as quickly as our peers are. We worry that if we can't take our company public like that twenty-something kid did, we're just not worthy.All of this anxiety is not only self-imposed, it's largely self-destructive.While being driven to achieve, succeed and win can send us to great heights, they can also distract and demoralize us from actually becoming successful.There are a few techniques that can help you transform that useless anxiety into very practical energy to help move you and your company forward.Make Successful MilestonesSuccess rarely happens as one incredible moment where the skies part, the rays of brilliance shine down, and a harmonious choir sing...

It provides a framework for looking at the factors (forces) that influence a situation, originally social situations.

The BCG matrix (The Boston Consulting Group)The BCG matrix (aka B.C.G. analysis, B.C.G.-matrix, Boston Box, Boston Consulting Group analysis) is a chart that had been created by Bruce Henderson for the Boston Consulting Group in 1970 to help corporations with analyzing their business units or product lines. This helps the company allocate resources and is used as an analytical tool in brand marketing, product management, strategic management and portfolio-analysis.To use the chart, analysts plot a scatter graph to rank the business units (or products) on the basis of their relative market shares and growth rates.Cash cows are units with high market share in a slow-growing industry. These units typically generate cash in excess of the amount of cash needed to maintain the business. They are regarded as staid and boring, in a "mature" market, and every corporation would be thrilled to own as many as possible. They are to be "milked" continuously with as little investment as possible, ...

I used to say to my line supervisors, keep the production line busy and you will have less trouble to manage, I say the same to directors now. The answer is in the Model.Maslow's primary contribution to psychology is his Hierarchy of Needs. Maslow contended that humans have a number of needs that are instinctoid, that is, innate. These needs are classified as "conative needs," "cognitive needs," and "aesthetic needs." "Neurotic needs" are included in Maslow's theory but do not exist within the hierarchy.Maslow postulated that needs are arranged in a hierarchy in terms of their potency. Although all needs are instinctive, some are more powerful than others. The lower the need is in the pyramid, the more powerful it is. The higher the need is in the ...

Another tool for the toolbox, it is amazing how we overlook many things in our business which are actual strengths.Analyzing Your Business's Strengths , Weaknesses, Opportunities , and Threat s by BNET staffSWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) is a method of assessing a business, its resources, and its environment. Doing an analysis of this type is a good way to better understand a business and its markets, and can also show potential investors that all options open to, or affecting a business at a given time have been thought about thoroughly.The essence of the SWOT analysis is to discover what you do well; how you could improve; whether you are making the most of the opportunities around you; and whether there are any changes in your market?such as technological developments, mergers of businesses, or unreliability of suppliers?that may require corresponding changes in your business.

The 20% play from the VC community

The Fiction of 20% By Fred Wilson Blog: http://avc.blogs.com/a_vc/It?s a ?given? in the venture business that in order to compensate a venture firm for all the time and energy they are going to put into a particular investment, they need to own at least 20% of the company and ideally 30%.I hear it all the time.?We won?t do a deal unless we can own 20%??This term sheet has us at 22% which is well below our target ownership of 25%??I can?t make a venture return owning just 15% of the business?To which I say RUBBISH. Just because you WANT to own 20-30% of a business doesn?t mean you NEED to own 20-30% of the business.The Flatiron program that I still manage owned about 14% of comScore when it went public. 14% of comScore is worth about $120 million today. I don?t want to get into confidential data about how much we invested and how much we took out, but I will say that it was a fantastic investment. I think that is fair compensation for the eight years I put into that investment. An...
