Starting a company -- my framework
Finally nailed on the framework for deciding on the area that the KGI would work in. The framework is as:
Financial:
1. Not very capital intensive <>
2. Positive Cash Flows in six months
3. Breakeven in 18 months
4. Lower accounts Receivable
5. Ideally minimal or negative working capital
6. Efficient maintenance of accounts payable
Marketing:
1. Addressing a genuine 'need' in the market
2. In sync with changing fundamentals of Indian Economy
3. Value Adders (not creators)
4. No dealing in obsolete products
Personal:
1. Minimal Govt. and no unethical dealing
2. Can be operated with base in Delhi
3. Some contacts in the industry
These are by no means the final list of the framework -- will be visiting these frameworks time and again.
