Want a successful startup? Try this simple trick.
Whenever you send an email to a co-founder or team member, try adding "to make more money." as a suffix to whatever action you're asking the person to take and see if the message still makes sense.
You may find it reveals much about your business, your goals and your partners.
- rwanghacker 14y agoMaking money happens when you have created something of value. Creating value is the primary goal, creating money often is the side effect.
- gregcohn 14y ago"I am visiting Hacker News to make more money." Hmm.
- S4M 14y agoWell, that's the point. If you think "I am visiting HN to make more money.", then unless you have a very good reason for it (except of killing time) you will be like "Oh wait, that doesn't make any sense! Better do something more productive then!".
