Why Great Advisors Give Terrible Startup Advice (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bad startup advice usually comes from smart, successful, well-meaning people. That's exactly what makes it so hard to catch. A prototype-stage hardware founder was told by a reputable investor at a large VC firm never to raise less than $5 million, which implies a valuation around $20 million. That ask would have gotten her laughed out of every investor meeting I've ever sat in. The investors I actually work with would want to see $750,000 at $3 to $4 million pre-money. He wasn't running a scam.
