In their earliest days, startups tend to depend much more on their relationships with investors than with customers. In fact, for some startups, there may be a period of many months where they have, essentially, not relationship with custom

One thing that exacerbates my startup depression (yep, I've got it too) is the fiscal pressure of being a founder - even if I stick with founding startups for many years, and do so many times, the odds are that I'll end up with significantl
