Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Most startup advice is wrong.It is built on hindsight, survivor bias, and tidy narratives that leave out the messy reality of building a company from scratch. Run a coin-tossing competition with 1,000 people and someone will win ten in a row. They will happily lecture you on their winning techniques afterwards. A lot of startup advice works the same way.The Founder's Map is a practical, no-nonsense guide to the terrain of entrepreneurship, drawn by someone who has actually crossed it: one company closed with two months of runway left, another taken from near collapse to a successful exit, and hundreds of investment rounds seen from both sides of the table.Volume I, Building the Machine, covers the ground that decides everything else: you, your team, and the systems that let you scale beyond yourself. It focuses on what actually matters: how to test whether your idea is worth years of your lifehow to choose co-founders, and what to agree before you commithow to share equity and ownership without losing control (or half of it to the taxman)how to build a board on your own terms, before investors impose one on theirshow to hire, pay, promote, and fire like a human beinghow to make decisions when everyone around you is being nice instead of honestThis is not a book of startup myths or overnight success stories. It is a map: the routes I took, the mistakes I made, and the cliffs I went over, so you can read the ground and choose your own way across.If you are thinking about starting a company, already in the early stages, or a repeat founder who wants to see what you missed the first time round, this book will give you a clearer view of what lies ahead and a better chance of getting it right.Business failure is an option. Personal failure isn't.Volume II, covering customers, capital, and the way out, follows. A practical, no-nonsense guide to building a startup, covering the founder, the team and the systems that let a company scale beyond you. Drawing on real successes, failures and hundreds of investment rounds, Matthew Cleevely maps the terrain founders actually face and how to get founding less wrong. This item is printed on demand.
