David S. Rose is the author of Angel Investing (see my book review), CEO of Gust, and Founder of New York Angels. He is a serial entrepreneur and has invested in over 100 companies.
David offers this book as a comprehensive guide to entrepreneurs once they have a creative idea and startup intention in place (for these earlier phases, see my reviews of the books $100 Startup, Little Bets, and Trend-Driven Innovation). He classifies typical mistakes founders make into four types – fundamental (eg. unneeded product), painful (eg. wrong team), tragic (eg. bungled equity allocation) and expensive (eg. legal, accounting).
Here are my takeaways from this 306-page book, summarised in Table 1 and in the points below. The appendix has useful resources (also accessible online) such as a due diligence request, corporation registration checklist, founder accord template, and sample term sheets.
