From Ideation to Excellence: How to Bring Your Startup Business Idea to Life

Story of Joey Underwood

Joey Underwood was driving home from his job at Linked.in, stuck in traffic at Marina Boulevard in the pouring rain. On the other side of the road, a bike and segway rental shop for the tourists caught his attention; it was closed early due to the bad weather. Because of the rainy days, he saw the same thing the next day and the other day– almost for a week it was the same scenario. The owner of the shop wasn’t even showing up, so Joey concluded that no one wants to ride a bike or rent segway on the rainy days. And he thought it’s a pretty poor business idea.

And when Joey gave it an in-detail attention, he came to know that the shop owner is making money in rainy season based on how many days it rained. Then he did a little more research and discovered almost 75% of the businesses are affected by the weather every year. And this is where an idea sparked – weather insurance for businesses – when weather affects the businesses. However, Joey didn’t have an idea about how to run a weather insurance company, but fortunately, with the help of the right strategic technological solution provider, he successfully formed an enterprise. After raising couple of round of funding and growing into venture scalable business Joey sold the startup for couple of millions.

Product Risk

Another significant priority is to identify your service/product’s features, its worthiness, and the problems that can be solved or how it will make your end user’s life easy. If your product or service has real potential to solve the problems, then there are very high chances of success.

Financial Risk

To get up and running, your startup business idea requires investment. You can take help from your friends, family, angel investors, or family offices at the initial stage. But, for further growth, it is necessary to have potential investors as they will pay in-detail attention to your ability and help you articulate your business plan, to reach the next stage of development.
