This week, I listened to two podcasts that made me think about the economics of early-stage businesses and how they are perceived by investors. It also shed light on how this perception impacts the founder and employees. I believe it’s important to first lay down the dots and then connect them in a way that provides a clear picture for an entrepreneur from an investor’s perspective.

I thought it would be good to lay down the dots first and then try to link them just enough so that when the jig-saw is put together although each piece may not make much sense but together will give a clear picture for an entrepreneur from the shoes of an investor.
