Startups must prioritise legal protections, such as incorporation, IP rights, clear contracts, data security, compliance, and dispute resolution, to avoid liabilities and thrive.
Efficiently managing a startup's burn rate involves accurate cash flow forecasting, expense segmentation, operational efficiencies, regular reviews, KPIs, scenario planning, and maintaining cash reserves.
Effective cost-control measures for bootstrapped startups: focus on core competencies, outsource non-core functions, adopt lean staffing, maintain rigorous budgeting, and optimise procurement.
