Kim Perell: 作为一名投资者,我非常看重创业公司是否具备盈利能力。仅仅拥有一个伟大的梦想是不够的,更重要的是要证明有人愿意为这个梦想买单。如果你的产品或服务没有人愿意付费,那它就只能算是一个爱好,而不是一项真正的生意。你需要通过实际销售来验证你的商业模式,证明你的产品或服务能够满足市场需求。我会关注你的产品是否能在没有任何推广的情况下,仅凭自身吸引力就能在市场上销售出去。如果能够做到这一点,那就证明你的产品具有真正的市场潜力。 Dan Fleyshman: 我完全同意你的观点。创业者需要尽早开始盈利,以确保公司的可持续发展。如果一家公司无法产生足够的收入来覆盖其运营成本,那么它最终将难以为继。盈利能力是吸引投资者的关键因素之一。投资者希望看到他们的投资能够带来回报,而盈利能力是衡量一家公司是否具有投资价值的重要指标。因此,创业者应该将盈利能力作为首要目标,并努力建立一个能够持续产生利润的商业模式。
