Slow and steady can win the race for startups 🏃🌬 🐢


The news is full of entrepreneurs launching startups one minute then 
quitting their jobs, working from beaches and making thousands of sales the 
next. The result? People start businesses thinking the same will happen for 
them. The reality is that most probably it doesn’t. We’ve seen it first hand 
through many entrepreneurs we work with at Virgin StartUp.

You know what, though? Don’t quit. Slow and steady is a thing in the world 
of startups. Want proof? Crunchbase News have assembled a data set of top 
late-blooming startups 
<https://virginstartup.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=6e873aab9f76e7f4db2e0500c&id=b218d3f2b0&e=d4e40c46c7> 
and have compiled a list of inspiring stories of business that made it big 
after years of trying.

Here’s a few examples:

Meditation app Headspace 
<https://virginstartup.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=6e873aab9f76e7f4db2e0500c&id=45b904d200&e=d4e40c46c7> 
was founded in 2010 by a British-born Buddhist monk. It began life as an 
events startup ticking over but not setting the world alight. Then it 
launched online lessons for meditation so people could practise at home. It 
now has millions of users and has raised $75m in funding.

Or there’s holiday rental management provider Vacasa 
<https://virginstartup.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=6e873aab9f76e7f4db2e0500c&id=492fafd07e&e=d4e40c46c7> 
. Launched in 2009, but only really tasted mega success since 2016 once the 
industry kicked off with the huge success of Airbnb and the like. It’s now 
raised more than $140 million in the last 3 years.

How to make better decisions for your business 💆🔮


It's estimated that an adult makes about 35,000 remotely conscious decisions 
each day. We think you can add at least another few thousand to that when 
talking about people launching or running businesses. When running a 
business even things such as what colour to make the 'buy now' button on 
your website can have an influence on whether you make more sales or not. 
(Apparently red has a 21% higher conversion 
<https://virginstartup.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=6e873aab9f76e7f4db2e0500c&id=b1d5dc5b27&e=d4e40c46c7> 
rate than green.)

So we thought it a good idea to share this article from the Guardian which 
explores fifty years of research into how you can give yourself the best 
chance of making the right decision.

What happens after you've raised £100,000 from crowdfunding? 😮


We've all read about the crowdfunding success stories. But what happens 
next? If your raise was equity-focused then all of a sudden you've got all 
these new people invested in your business. It's an army of super fans that 
is really within your best interest to keep happy.

Adee Phelan is one of the UK's leading hairdressers, with a history of 
working with major brands and celebrities. He's just launched his first 
product - SKNHEAD 
<https://virginstartup.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=6e873aab9f76e7f4db2e0500c&id=fbaa956526&e=d4e40c46c7> 
, combining skincare with haircare. To launch he has raised over £100,000 in 
investment through an equity crowdfunding platform. Here talks to us about 
how he did it and what's next.
