If you are like most entrepreneurs I know, there just aren’t enough hours in a day to get all your own work done, as well as run the many one-hour meetings each team member seems to demand for decisions and mentoring. For one-on-one coaching from the startup founder, I call this approach five-minute mentoring.

If you want the full SlideShare deck with many slides not in either post it’s in this link –> The LA Tech Market. Of course that’s not disputable. To some extent – of course they are. An abbreviated version of this post appeared yesterday on TechCrunch. “There’s something going on in LA.”

As a startup mentor and investor, I am approached regularly by aspiring entrepreneurs who assert that business plans take too much time, are inaccurate, and rarely add value. The size of the document should be based on your style, but 10-20 pages or slides are usually more than adequate to outline even a complex business.

Management teams whisk through slides trying to get through a presentation to share how great things are going and they are eager to get through the meeting so they can get back to their real jobs. Of course it’s not required and many don’t do it. Many board meetings are bored meetings. It is a HUGE MF distraction.

Of course I’m not preaching crazy, irrational spend or having Kid Rock at your next company party. What if that time could go into thinking through the companies most important strategic issues, talking early with investors about their views and adjusting the strategic discussion slides rather than the update deck?
