1/ The financial modeling thread for #startups and #founders

I put together a series of lecture notes from my #financial #modeling #bootcamp at @TheNestiO in year end 2019

Here is the entire series of #articles in the form of a #thread reproduced on request

Read in sequence
2/ Modeling revenues for #startups and #founders.

Build models for founders not #investors. Use models to test run your businesses in #Excel.

Faster, cheaper and less painful than doing it in real life

3/ Unit #economics for startups and founders

Why #LTV > X * CAC is the first relationship you need to learn before you scale.

Also if you can't make money on a single order, best of luck with the next 10,000

4/ A #pricing guide for founders and startups

If your #product costs x to deliver to your customer door step, how much should you charge for it?

What working at @GoldmanSachs taught me about the rule of 3 and value based pricing

6/ A venture investor guide for startups and founders

You say pre-, I say post.

What is going through your poor general partner when she is negotiating the venture investing #termsheet with you.

7/ GEMS Education, a Private Equity Case Study

What do roads to partial #exits look like?

8/ Products versus Services

Really? Is that a question?

financetrainingcourse.com/education/2019…
9/ Understanding bet size and risk. Some math required.

This is a painful subject and an painful piece. Make sure you are fresh, lying down and at rest when you read it

11/ Bonus Tweet.

The meta thread of threads on #startups #founders

@daniyalaftab92 here you go. Done.
A word for warning for the weary.

The list of articles in the founder finance thread above, is about a hundred pages or roughly 30,000 words. Half of my "still work in progress", "not yet finished" book on #founder #finance.

0/ Brand as a #ThirdSpace by Habib Ullah Khan

While my poor friend was teaching the class, I was taking notes.

Notes from the Brand as a Third Space lecture with @Huk06 today at @HabibUniversity

#startups #founders #branding #marketing #thirdspace
1/ The spaces in our lives

1st Space. Home. Where we live, eat, share and sleep.

2nd Space. Work. Where we go work and earn a living.

3rd Space. Coffee shops. Stadiums. Gaming Consoles. Gyms. Trails.

Places where we go to be ourselves or find ourselves.
2/ The difference between spaces

The first two spaces are associated with society's expectations - imposed stereotypes and societal models

The third space is associated with aspiration and dreams

The third space is about choice.

1/ Last night I went looking for all the threads I had done on #founders #startups #productdev #uniteconomics and the mindset of a founder.

I thought it would be an easy filtered search.

It wasn't.

Apparently there is no simple way of doing this other than a manual search.
2/ I had to do this for my book project. Needed a ready reference to my ramblings.

I thought it could possibly a useful resource as well as, a neat introduction and a calling card.

"We have never met but here is what I think about stuff you have been thinking about."
3/ Without farther ado, here is the thread of threads.

In order of being the most useful and recommended.

Start with the three threads on #uniteconomics for #founders and #startups

Unit Economics – Part I

0/ On creating monsters.

A thread on market sizing - part II.

Sometimes words have unintended consequences. On a thread on estimating #marketsize for #startups I picked up sizing fresh produce in Karachi.

Here are some more thoughts and qualifiers.
1/ One word. Don't.

Just because a large market exist doesn’t mean that you should try and tackle it. Even if it is USD18 billion in size.

Great ideas and markets need to pass a few tests before you spend a few years of your live trying to make them work.
2/ A second look on fresh produce in Karachi.

I am not a fan of the fresh produce market. Admittedly it looks attractive because of its size. It isn’t.

It is a terrible market. The big issues are operational complexity, credit and cold chain.
