I have just been watching some interview to important Internet entrepreneurs like Martin Varsavsky, Loic Lemeur or Mark Samwer (he sold alando.de to eBay for 50 M Dollars).
In particular this video is great. I already know Martin's story but listening to Mark and Loic was very interesting.
The interviewer made a question to Loic: which advice would you give to a young entrepreneur?
Loic answered: I will not tell you what to do, but I will tell you what NOT to do:
BIG DON'Ts in INTERNET ENTREPRENEURSHIP
- Don't be waiting for the great idea. It will never arrive
- Don't keep your idea in secret. Spread it as much as possible. You will get interesting feedback
- Don't be worried about the fact that your idea is already implemented. All of them are implemented
- Don't be focused on getting money. Focus on changing the world
Well, I think that I have already made all these mistakes
