Welcome to video Fridays
from The Start Up Garage


A place where Tyler Jensen, The Startup Garage’s founder, answers questions directly from viewers

Key Take Aways From Video:

1) One of the first places I start with is industry associations or trade associations for that particular industry that you’re going to be in.

2) Google search — really getting into google and searching for the data that you’re looking for is a great place to start, especially on the competitive analysis because your competitors are going to be online most likely, or they’re probably not a competitor.

3) The library has access to a lot of databases. These databases cost a lot of money, but if you go through your library you can get free access to them.

4) Build a team of advisors These are probably the best resource.
