Rahul Nawab, an EO DC and EO Gujarat member and President of IQR Consulting, Inc. I’ll be honest: I underestimated how difficult being an entrepreneur would be.

Every entrepreneur wants to hear “yes” during the fund-raising process but I would argue that being too risk averse and not pushing hard enough and be willing to hear a “no” is what holds back many people from “yes.” Possibly offend and entrepreneur leading to reputation risk amongst other entrepreneurs.

I first met Wiley Cerilli on April 23, 2010. You don't just get the entrepreneur--you get the team he puts in a position to succeed. SP had built a minimum viable product with a 30 hour a week tech consultant and sold the hell out of it. You don't give a sales team like that a target without expecting him to crush it.

I believe that it is part of the DNA of an entrepreneur – being so competitive that you’re practically sick when you lose. Entrepreneurs are neurotic about it. I decided to put both of those issues to bed in 2010. Were their consultants? They hired a consultant to help them with the review.

ME/ “When we started out in 2010, we were the definition of bootstrapping entrepreneurs. A lot of people think that all you need is an idea and capital to make it as an entrepreneur, but it’s so much more than that. As a result, we’ve been able to hire and retain the best recruitment consultants in the industry.”.

Most entrepreneurs are not tax experts, and how they will treat accrued interest is the furthest thing from their minds when raising capital. If the entrepreneur says, “I don’t know” or worse, “I’m not going to issue 1099s”, beware. That cash is an asset of the syndicate and is returned if not needed. Ask the company its plans.
