I personally don't like it when everything that is extended to entrepreneurs.

I posted it for independant musicians (and there seems to be a lot among us) that want to make a living from music. I don't think it really applies for entrepreneurs in general.



Independent musicians trying to make a living from their music are entrepreneurs, and most of what I saw in the article definitely applies to someone bootstrapping a startup.


In this case though it seems applicable to at least some sub-set of startups.

Our company, admittedly B2B focused, would not be where it is today if we hadn't engaged strongly with a large customer right off and made them impressed and happy with our service. Not only did that secure a solid revenue stream, but it gave us a great referencable client, and people who were bring our name up in conversations just because they liked what we did for them.


You don't get to choose what ideas apply to. It's a matter of logic, not taste.
