Inside the short, troubled life of a music start-up
- tptacek 17y agoThis company spent 3MM (06), then 6.8MM (07), then ~5MM (08) on SG&A (headcount). What chance does this shoot-the-moon business plan have in any vertical today?
- kolya3 17y ago"Costs continued to balloon, and a business model that required the start-up to spend 10 cents to earn a penny was never fully re-evaluated." It's really inspiring to hear that someone with THIS business plan got funded. Makes you think, how hard could it be to get funding? ;)
