Tips for startup companies

Good article on tips to a successful startup. I've heard and read a lot of "reasons" that you should start your own business, but never one quite like this.

The tip that he concentrates on the most is "3. You have a better understanding of one kind of customer than anyone else." The premise is solid - you need to solve a problem for someone before you can run a successful business. If you don't know the customer, how can you solve their problems?

I am passionate about business on the Internet. This blog is my personal archive of lessons learned while conducting business on the Internet.

I started programming web sites 11 years ago.

In 1997, I started my first Internet business, called Carryout.com. It was an online food ordering service that allowed you to order food from a local restaurant right to your door. At the time, that was pretty cool!

The fire was stoked, and I started learning as much as I could about Internet marketing and copywriting. I became an expert at measuring and testing.

I've been a success and a failure many times over.

Now, a decade later, I still learn every day what it takes to be successful in online business. This blog is how I record those lessons. Since I started this blog, I've learned the value of keeping a written record of my Internet business experiences. As long as I keep learning and growing, I'll keep writing about it.

I doubt I'll ever quit learning.
