Now is the time for all the startups to prove that your idea works, and can make money. During times of reccession is when new ideas grow, and old ideas/businesses fade away. Focus on revenues, forget about doing what is right to impress VC’s (we let go of a senior resource who we took on to impress VC’s, but did not help in our business), don’t plan for a heady growth, downscale if you have to, generate revenes from any stream (don’t focus on just your idea), and try and be cash positive. You will SUCCEED!
