Talking about the "shelf life" of the start-up company

The company recently appeared a lot of problems, a lot of focus on management, this time and you discuss the start-up company's "shelf life" bar ~

First explain the title of the "Shelf life", is to say that a company in the entrepreneurial phase of the length, in my understanding, this length should be controlled within a certain period of time, if the super long, will lead to more serious management problems.

As a network company, starting from entrepreneurship is the only way for everyone, few sites are a high starting point; since it is entrepreneurship, we need to have a successful general direction, know how to do, about how many times can gradually progress towards success, with these ideas, to find like-minded partners, to recruit the concept of recognition, Believe in and trust the boss's employees to raise a start-up fund (not too much, but to keep up with the company's expenses and the livelihoods of the employees) so that entrepreneurship can begin ...

Start a simple business, find collaborators, recruit a group of unpaid, believe that the company's future employees are not difficult, with the start-up funds can be a company, the need for the site from scratch to create, progressive development, continuous improvement, expand the scale, try to access the profit point ... The time to do this is a start-up company's shelf life.

Why is it "shelf life"?

Said shelf life, because in this period, if the development of a smooth, it can be said to be a good time and the stage;

Timing: There is no competitor intervention, if there is also can not be considered, as long as the direction of their own, down-to-earth forward, the competitor is naturally fall behind (of course this partial ideal, but a lot of new entrepreneurial thinking is really no competitor involved);

Location: Entrepreneurial phase can start from a classic garage or a set of housing, conditions do not need to be superior, if lucky, you can also win the government's http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/17311.html "> Venture Fund, Benefits such as tax relief;

People and: As long as the staff called to believe that the company's development philosophy, see the future of success, feel the rapid development of the atmosphere, then they can not pay, regardless of the holiday input ... This is the most important, the following more to talk about this point;

On the entrepreneurial stage of the people and:

In the start-up phase, faith in the company's philosophy, look forward to the success of the future, feel the rapid development of the atmosphere, we all know that success is to create their own, do not care about the current wage income, do not care about the holiday, just hope to reach the goal early, to complete the company and their own dreams, especially the Most entrepreneurs are just graduated students, no family, life pressure, can dedicate to the cause of the company, no one will complain about the income, no one will complain about the holiday, no one care about social security, do not want to buy a car, know, as long as efforts to do, success what will have ...

Hope to participate in the entrepreneurial team can be said to be a swarm, can be strictly selected from the best, all have a virtue, all are elite. These partners, employees are the company's greatest wealth, with them, the company can be at low cost of the rapid development of expenditure

Do not need to consider the management mechanism, everyone is automatic spontaneous;

No incentive mechanism is needed, the dream is the greatest motivation;

No need to worry about the atmosphere, positive attitude can conquer all;

All this, only belong to the start-up company, but the start-up company can not always be "entrepreneurial"!

Now say "shelf life":

Successful team can quickly out of the entrepreneurial stage, whether to achieve a balance of income and self-reliance or to obtain venture capital, is always out of the way;

The common team in the start-up phase of the time will be a little longer, there are many can come out, but unfortunately there are many teams are helpless to prolong the start-up time, or even more than the "shelf life";

Do not go out of the entrepreneurial period is facing the expiration of the venture, is all the entrepreneurial team do not want to experience, after the protection of what will happen?

1, the lack of financial resources: Entrepreneurial period belongs to the consumption stage, if not out of the entrepreneurial period to achieve break-even and did not get investment, that financial resources are fewer and less, will make the company very difficult, or even change the general direction, to find other ways to make money, so that the main business is not good

2, the staff began blundering: Looking at the success or very distant, the development of the speed of decline, their efforts to see the results of the ideal, no automatic spontaneous passion, decreased efficiency;

3, the company atmosphere modulation: Everyone's attention is no longer to devote themselves to the cause of the company, more and more attention to the Dongdong;

4, the passage of human resources: employees of the impetuous cause more worried about their future, has no longer like the work that does not need to consider life, family, many employees married and have children, need to take into account too much, regardless of remuneration, regardless of social security, regardless of the holiday, has been difficult to ensure the normal operation of the family, with the Lead to a growing gap in human resources;

。。。

What happens when you have these problems?

The emergence of these problems, can not be a start-up company to consider the way to solve, not to sit still, so that not only will let oneself suffered a great loss, but also let the partners forget, let the staff work together to regret wasting their valuable time;

The big aspect, together seeks not to go out the entrepreneurial period the question, why cannot reach the anticipated goal? Why not balance? Why not invest? And you allocate existing resources, will focus on the main energy to do the most useful things, one after another, can not spread a large network;

Small aspect, actively communicates with the staff, understands everybody's concern, as far as possible to lift, maintains the company the positive atmosphere, does not let the negative atmosphere drag down everybody; you don't want to have a lot of people who have the ability, you don't want to have people willing! Are you sure? You have to believe that the corresponding speed of the spread of Word-of-mouth, a university as long as a few employees leave not to say you a good word, that may not be able to recruit people, even if the search for whether to retain, who do not want the company into a training base it; then try to start from the existing staff, mobilize their motivation, stimulate their potential, since it is carefully selected in the , it is impossible to do something, see if he would like to do it.

Actively adjust the management thinking: There is no perfect management and incentive mechanism, impossible to meet the insurance company, entrepreneurial length in each employee mentality has an expectation, you can occasionally change the length of this value, but you can't always change it, do not say 1 years ago we are now out of the entrepreneurial phase, into the right track of the rapid development of the period, A year later said, we start a company how to ... A suitable management system should be put in place.

The incentive mechanism needs to be perfected, and since everyone's dream has not been completed in the expected time, has experienced a bang, and then the decline of the period, do not use the same method to cheer, otherwise only three and exhaustion, the same words once two times everyone support, more time became a wolf, suitable for the development of the company's incentive mechanism is very much, Managers should actively explore, not only verbal words.

Finally, as long as there is hope, we must let everyone see, but can not stay in the previous stage from scratch, we see a product is very satisfied, now to let everyone see the hope of the market profit or financing, after all, I am a commercial company, the product is perfect, no profit is unable to survive, Good products are not for themselves to see, to be pushed to the user, with such achievements to stimulate the staff's motivation, and then the heart of the shelf life extension some.

Recent examples:

Love help when the establishment is a rush, cattle Yunzu, rapid development, achievements are not small, can be 2 years past to see, can only say that everyone's speculative mentality is too strong, want to make a good money in the start-up company, we do not see hope or to reach their own want, nature has left, Of course, the love is still actively developing (note: This article is not a love for example) ~

Then see http://tech.qq.com/a/20100609/000454.htm Group buying should be said to be the same, do not need much input, but such a company in such a short period of time to get so much investment, but also prompted it to jump out of the entrepreneurial stage;

Some teams have struggled for years to get out of business, and some teams have been well developed in just a few months, and this is a question of opportunity. Hope to discuss with you, talk about their own views.
