Lazy Start

Many startups fail because of slow initiation of plan. If you thought about an idea then why wait? Get into it and make it a reality until idea brinks off your mind. The reason you need to launch it early is that it's only by bouncing your idea off users that you fully understand it.

Having no future plan

Starting up and working upon on an idea without a solid plan is just like sailing a ship without a sail. A startup should have a complete quartly or annually plan and should go ahead with it.

Missing the obvious

Sometimes the thing that will make your business a success is so obvious you miss it. The newest, biggest, brightest, shiniest product or idea doesn't necessarily become the best business venture. Much of your value as a future business success is in what you already know.

No Progress Tracking

Most startups fail even after having built a super product, great idea, awesome service because of poor or no progress tracking. Progress tracking is a major part that many startups miss. They are focussed towards implementing their ideas making it better but in that period they lose time. They don't have a track of their growth rate and there is no growth analysis what so ever. This leads to mess in later stages and eventually failure.

No Competitor Analysis

You might have a great startup but there are always chance of others working on similar startup like yours or may be better. Daily comparing your progress with your competitor is very important. You know what are your competitors focussing on and how you can get ahead of them.

Blind Target

Raising little funds

Too little money means not enough to get airborne. What airborne means depends on the situation. Startup aspires to advance to higher level. It depends on investors, because until you're profitable that's who you have to convince.

Draining funds

It is necessary to understand all the investment factor of the business and spend cautiously. And this can help you before making mistakes which can kill startup business.

Poor management

Not setting the right goals

A common business mistake is not setting the right goals. First step is to have two sets of goals - short term and long term. Second and more important step is to make sure that your short term goals lead up to your long term goal(s). When you get the second part wrong, you spend more time thinking and less time doing.

Choosing the wrong team members

Choosing the wrong team members is probably one of the worst mistakes you can be made. This mistake can divert your interest from the idea resulting in automatic fail of the startup.

Lack of Tech
