Some Very Useful Advice for Startups from Guy Kawasaki

April 4, 2012

In case you missed it, Guy Kawasaki, a former Apple success story and now a successful venture capitalist, has posted a three-part series of excellent articles for entrepreneurs on his blog http://blog.guykawasaki.com. They are very informative, and come with downloadable templates for Microsoft Office. They are

 1. How to Create an Enchanting Pitch (includes a sample PowerPoint presentation)

 2. How to Create an Enchanting Business Plan (includes an outline of a business plan in Word)

 3. How to Create an Enchanting Financial Forecast (includes sample Excel files)

 I also really like two of his earlier blog articles:  

 The Top Ten Lies of Venture Capitalists

 The Top Ten Lies of Entrepreneurs

 There are many other excellent articles on his blog that are worth checking out.
