Entreprenerds Startup Validator: The 100 Essentials Checklist
Before You Launch - Audit Everything
Entrepreneurship is not a haphazard journey fuelled by luck and inspiration alone; it is a disciplined, evidence-based process designed to navigate conditions of extreme uncertainty. Just like a pilot goes through a checklist before takeoff, every founder needs a final startup pre-launch check.
The 100 Essentials Checklist is your entrepreneurial dashboard: a guided reflection of what you’ve built, what’s missing, and what’s ready.
“This isn’t about perfection - it’s about visibility and confidence in what you have and what you still need to work on. ”
