How can I increase my chances of making my startup a success?
Ashwin Campbell
A great way to boost your chances of startup success is to stay focused on solving real problems for your target audience. Understand your customers’ needs profoundly and adapt quickly based on feedback. Building a solid team with diverse skills is vital—don’t try to do everything yourself! Networking with other entrepreneurs and mentors can help you avoid common pitfalls and stay flexible in your business model.

Starting a business can feel like a big uphill climb, but there are some key things you can do to boost your chances. First, understand your market. Know who you're selling to and what they need. It helps you start small and test your ideas. Also, keep your costs low initially—avoid spending too much before you know what works.
Networking is super important, too. Connect with others in your industry, learn from them, and build strong relationships. Finally, stay flexible. Things may not go as planned, and that’s okay—adapt and keep moving forward. You can read more here about strategies that might help!
