How to Get Rid of Time Sucks in Your Startup

There’s nothing worse than seeing your time go down the drain. In this edition of the Silicon Valley Momentum Podcast, Roland Seibelink tackles the issue of potential time-sucks for startup CEOs. With so many potential distractions, it’s easy for startup leaders and their companies to lose focus on what’s important. The result is time wasted on tasks that could be outsourced or accomplished more efficiently as opposed to the differentiations that a startup brings to the market.

Listen to this week’s podcast to listen to Roland advise startup CEOs on:

  • Common mistakes startups make that result in time-sucks.
  • Doing a self-review of your startup to find your market-observable differentiators.
  • The four key criteria to determine if a task is worth your time and effort.
  • Why it’s okay to outsource certain tasks to avoid time-sucks so you can focus on what you do best.

Roland Siebelink talks all things tech startup and bring you interviews with tech cofounders across the world.
