What advice would you give your past self? I recently caught up with a friend who’d founded a company. He was at a low point: overwhelmed, sleep deprived, stressed… I listened, nodded, and said, “I remember those days.” And I do remember them. It took years before my startup Anchor began to gain real traction. There were sleepless nights and drastic pivots, crashed servers and bad bugs.

Startups are so full of s**t right now. The pipes are jammed and there are so many companies that are full to bursting with the desire to un-pack them. We’ve just been through determining the shape of this year’s TechCrunch Startup Battlefield 200 and we are seeing a huge amount of waste recycling, poop and urine startups. Because SBF gets applicants that are often at bootstrap or pre-seed stages, we’re betting that this trend will show up on everyone else’s dance card next year.

Classical computer programming is about rules. What does a program do when a user inputs 4 + 7? Or a credit card number? Or clicks on a button.

You can’t just build it and hope they come If you build it, they will come. Right? What worked for a corn farm in Dyersville, Iowa, decisively does NOT work for startups. The startup graveyard is littered with companies with incredible products that went under because they did not focus on distribution until it was too late.
