S ecrets to a Successful Startup is about how to conceive, plan, and launch your own business, one that is resilient enough to survive and thrive in todays marketplace. I am a serial entrepreneur, and I have built four successful businesses from scratch that have become $100-million entities. I have also written a previous guide, Three Simple Steps, about developing the right mentality to succeed in life. In this book, I focus on how to use that same mental approach to develop winning ideas and turn them into winning companies.

, and the majority are single-person ventures like mine have been. Yet the failure rate of startups is shockingly, and unnecessarily, high. For every new startup, another established one fails. Of course, the reasons are varied, but I believe the most important are within your control. My hope is that Secrets to a Successful Startup will be the practical guide you need to help you succeed where so many others struggle and too often fail.

In my opinion, there is never a wrong time to start a company, and it is never too late to reinvent yourself. , and 18 percent were over sixty. In addition, women owned 40 percent of all companies, up from just 4 percent in 1972. Since 2007, the number of women-owned businesses has surged 58 percent, while total businesses have only increased 12 percent. Further, technology has freed us from being slaves to a building. We can work from anywhere, even while traveling, and we can sell to anywhere and to anyone. In the United States, 69 percent of entrepreneurs start their businesses at home.

On its first day, a new startup can immediately attract a global customer base. There has never been a better or more exciting time to start a company, and achieving financial independence through your company has never been more attainable.

However, I have promised you secrets. Here are the first three. The first and most important ingredient for startup success isnt a talented team or the perfect product. Its not tons of cash, an eye-catching website, or a brilliant marketing strategy. Its you. Your mentality and approach, the way you think, make the crucial difference. If so many companies fail despite all the startup advisors, blogs, and courses, despite all the angel investors and MBAs, then there has to be something wrong with the way the majority of entrepreneurs think. Cultivating the right mindset is vital both for coming up with a winning idea in the first place and then for building a winning company out of it and thats the focus of .

Here is the second secret: No matter what theyre selling, where they are located, how big or small they are, or the state of the economy, the reason that most companies dont make it and go bankrupt is due to cash-flow problems. Entrepreneurs sometimes doom themselves right from the start because they dont structure their business, or manage their resources, in sustainable ways. Their expenses outpace income, they hire too many people, or they expand too fast. In , I look at how to structure a business in order to survive the treacherous early days.
