TAKE ANDY'S STARTUP QUIZ!
"For best results, please answer the following 11 questions out loud. If you have a partner or key employee, have them answer with you.
Be brutally honest with your answers. The success of your startup could depend on it.
Thank you, and If you have any questions about your startup business, I am here to help."
Andy Jacob
Question 1:
Assume you're going to get outplayed in every area of your business plan.
What's the one breathtaking advantage your startup has that no one can beat?
(And no, it’s not because you’re better, cheaper, faster, stronger, smarter, more passionate, or because you have a patent.)
Question 2:
What is your startup doing right now knowing that someone else is going to copy your idea?
(And don’t say they can’t, won’t, or you’re not worried about it.)
Question 3:
Can you attack the part of your business you’re least confident in — or least qualified to handle?
(And don’t say you’re confident in everything.)
Question 4:
Why is this the team that’s going to win?
(And don’t say you’re not aiming for domination — because if you’re not, someone else is.)
Question 5:
What’s the one thing your startup has right now that would be very difficult for another company to replicate?
(And don’t say your tech stack.)
Question 6:
What big problem are you solving, who else is solving it, and what makes your solution truly different?
(And don’t say no one else can solve it — they can.)
Question 7:
Describe your startup in 10 seconds. Go.
(And don’t say you need more time.)
Question 8:
How do you acquire customers — in 20 seconds or less?
(And don’t say “advertising,” “social media,” or “marketing.” Be specific.)
Question 9:
What’s your plan for getting immediate, free attention for your startup?
(And please — not SEO, blog posts, or “going viral.”)
Question 10:
Who’s your competition — and why would they care that you exist?
(And don’t say “we have no competition.” You do.)
Question 11:
Tell us about your paying customers in 20 seconds or less.
(And if you don’t have any yet — why do you believe this is a business?)
Done? Good. Now take a deep breath.
If those answers made you uncomfortable, you’re getting closer to the truth.
If they made you fired up — you’re getting closer to momentum.
