Startup Community is a film about what makes the Kitchener-Waterloo Region different. It was funded on Indiegogo by the community, for the community.

While the story is told by http://www.taylorjacksonmedia.com, Lindsay Coulter, Marshall Angus, Mark Araujo, and Holden Mohring had a huge part in the creation of this.
— drop Lindsay or myself a line on Twitter to let us know what you think of the film. We’d love to hear from you.

The biggest thank you goes out to the community that made this happen.

    Mark Cuban’s 12 Rules for #Startups

  6. trebledc says:

    I think
    1. Obsession is just a hobby if not making money. If your making money out
    of anything you’ll love it then go back to your Obsession.
    2. Exit strategy of course you need it who wants to be locked up in one
    place may it be success or failure. PLan A Plan B contingencies plan baby.

    3. Keep organization flat hmmm I smell blood if everybody is the boss.
    Maybe he meant keep everybody open minded. Imagine our body if we don’t
    have a brain or imagine a person that is brain dead nothing is moving right
    like beaten up veggie.

    So in conclusion this billionaire & millionaire is not you but we all have
    one thing in common, its brains use it and don’t be lazy using it and I
    mean logically. Mark is cool but sometimes he’s overboard in saying things.

    Billionaires & Millionaires are hardworking, smart, dare devils, do or die,
    no emotions unless its money, visionaries, want to change the world atleast
    small part of it, thinking lightyears in advance, analyse everything,
    always preparing for opportunity

    1 rule of start ups = be a luciferian Jew
    2 to 12 the rule of start ups = be a luciferian Jew

  8. Marcus Jackson says:

    Having an exit strategy seems very logical. Fighter pilots are highly
    skilled and focused tacticians but every one of them has an ejector seat at
    there disposal.

    The head is over the heart for a reason.

  13. Pop Trunk says:

  14. Veljko Mirkovic says:

    @Jeffisalwaysright instead of spending a dollar on a keychain wouldn’t it
    be better to spend it on infrastructure of employees? Sure swag might in
    crease sales, but you need a product to sell. When you’ve established a
    product or a service to sell and your production exceeds your demand, swag
    MIGHT come in handy, but I’d still advise direct contact marketing or
    managment to media PR.

  18. Emily Fisher says:

    I love Mark Cuban :D. GREAT TIPS! 

  19. jon smith says:

    What’s wrong with branding your company? If you have the money to make logo
    embroidered Polo shirts/ t shirts keychains etc what’s the problem? I don’t
    see extra branding could possibly be a bad thing

  20. GOmentr.com says:

    This is awesome!
    Strive for success! Don’t give up until you’re done!

  21. OneWire says:

    Taking your business plan from a dream to a reality can be a daunting task
    for any budding entrepreneur. My favorite rule from this list: “Don’t start
    a company unless it’s an obsession or something you love.” When starting
    your own business, you should first find out what you’re passionate about
    and then figure out how you can turn that passion into a thriving business.
    It’s also important to start small and be patient. Chances are, it’s going
    to take time for your startup to become lucrative. -Ali

  40. Mike E. says:

    Great documentary. Definitely informative in the sense that it shows the
    ‘growing pains’ of starting up and being “young” and starting up,which can
    at times pose a challenge for some. Great to see that a lot of the
    entrepreneurs felt failure, but were visionaries and had the ambition for
    success.
