If you're attempting a 'startup' and not a 'project', I believe that it is important to plan a revenue model from the inception. It can be difficult to force-feed a revenue model on your product after it has gained significant momentum. You don't have to implement it from the beginning, but it may help to steer your development to meet with your revenue model. If you're attempting a 'project' and not a 'startup', still think about what kind of revenue models would work for the project. If the plan isn't to make money (ie. make something cool), don't kill yourself thinking of how to make money from your idea.
