From the article, a one sentence summary:

Most operations go out of business because they don’t have enough customers or money—normally at the same time.

A guy named Ben Suarez came to this same conclusion over 40 years ago, and while lifting weights, the NPGS (Net Profit Generator System) came pouring out of his mind like a computer print out.

A few billion dollars later, and 40+ years, too many start-ups still forget the fundamentals of CASH FLOW.

ADD in all start-ups, and the failure rate is more like 1 in 10,000 make it. Most of the time, the failure is found in that one sentence.

Thanks Leanora,
