We are in a #startup slump. We have about half the amount of entrepreneurs than we did in the 1970's. –@rainforestbook of @RightToStart at @EngineOrg
Most of the Twitter discussion on "startup strategy" are either tips or generalizations from experience. To see what lessons entrepreneurs can learn from the research-backed field of corporate strategy, 👀 this free (& readable) paper by @KevinJBoudreau; papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…
A big key to innovation is hiring the best people. This paper shows that the ability of individual employee inventors explains 5x-10x more about how innovative a company is than all other aspects of the firm combined. And great inventors want to work with other great inventors.
The newest podcast featuring Ben McNelly. Ben created a software development firm focused on video game development, virtual experience, and automation in Joplin, Missouri, and has created an experience destination at Pennington Station. jesupgroup.com/podcast/from-t…

As in many rural areas and small towns, this local restaurant is more than just a place to get excellent food. "The Wrigley is a vital gathering place, where people break bread together, celebrate, and grieve...” dailyyonder.com/in-east-kentuc…
I like this paper on how Googling things you want to learn makes you creative. Searching to answer a question ("How did that magic trick work?") leads you to consider alternatives & hypotheses as you explore, kicking off an internal brainstorming session that leads to new ideas.
Marketing can be an overwhelming topic for a new #smallbiz owner. Join @cfra on 6/29 to get a free crash course on the basics! Reg now to learn all about key marketing concepts: ow.ly/Ovnk50FgQaK
Founders really, really need to have a founding agreement laying out rewards & responsibilities. It increases the chance of company success & lowers conflict. Here is a great resource: @PennLaw has a model agreement with annotations & a discussion guide. law.upenn.edu/clinic/entrepr…

Building digital skills along with strategies to develop rural entrepreneurship can provide local economies that are as resilient as the people who live there. clevelandfed.org/en/newsroom-an…
great story, but us there really no trash pickup in Dummerston? #casella businessinsider.com/moved-from-nyc…
Many of the most successful startups come from existing companies. This paper shows the process starts with a ringleader who wants to be able to be more creative & has conflicts with management. They cherrypick the best colleagues to join them, creating a team of great cofounders
