In 2013, Grayson Dearlove dissolved a company he started just twenty-two months before-the second failed startup that he closed in less than two years. Also in 2013, he joined an angel investment group, made his first angel investment, tried to raise a $150 million venture capital fund, and started three new companies. Meanwhile, another one of his companies-one that he thought was doomed to failure years ago- continued to grow and pay dividends, while yet another of his companies began to wind down after almost ten years of successful operation. Most days he swung from feeling tremendously wealthy and talented to feeling like a failure on the edge of financial ruin. He was forty years old. Standing at the crossroads of entrepreneurs, angel investors, and venture capitalists, Dr. Dearlove realized he had insights about successful start-ups and fast growing businesses that few others could offer. He authored How to Be an Entrepreneur without Even Trying as a valuable resource for entrepreneurs, wantrepreneurs, and investors alike. It provides actionable insights by exposing the ridiculous but important nuances of raising capital and growing a business that no one else is talking about. These fresh insights give readers a significant advantage when playing the startup game. The ambitious reader can use this guide to attract capital and launch a successful high-impact business in any sector, regardless of educational background, level of experience, resources currently controlled, or ability. This fast-paced book takes the reader from idea to company formation to raising angel and VC investment to successful exit. It is an entertaining but essential read for all interested in startup success.
