10 Simple Mistakes that can Ruin Your Startup


#6 Relying on ‘A’ Client

Always remember your client has no obligation to stick with you, he can choose to switch over to someone else as and when he prefers. This does not mean you doubt his every move and track his every step, no, you stay one step ahead of him and have multiple clients, more preferably ones you can depend on than the ones you cannot but never truly depend on one single client because it can cause great harm to your business both financially and psychologically.

#5 Working Casually
