10 Mistakes That Kill Startups

Most digital products don’t fail because of bad design. They fail because of a few avoidable mistakes that kill momentum before the product ever has a real chance. In this video, I share 10 mistakes that destroy startups and digital products early, based entirely on real experience. These aren’t theories or frameworks, they’re mistakes I personally made over 15 years of building products, mistakes that cost serious time, money, and months of work. From building the wrong MVP, to targeting the wrong users, to launching without a clear distribution plan, these are the traps that quietly ruin great ideas. If you’re building a product right now, I made this so you can avoid the same painful lessons and give your startup a real shot at traction.
