Common Startup Mistakes to Avoid

Most startups don’t fail because the idea is bad — they fail because of the mistakes nobody

talks about. One of the biggest ones is skipping market research; you might think

your idea is the next breakout, but assumptions won’t build a real business,

only real user validation will. Another common mistake is poor financial planning,

where founders burn money on fancy setups instead of focusing on what actually drives growth.

Ignoring feedback is another silent killer — your users, mentors, and even critics

are giving you free insights, so listen and adapt. Building the wrong team can also sink

everything, because even the best idea needs the right people who share your vision
