Synopsis
Building successful start-ups was never quite as easy as it seemed, and the changing economic climate has raised the stakes, reduced the margin of error. New entrepreneurs can't stumble into wealth on the power of half-formed ideas, or turn dreams into reality without doing a lot of homework. It's time to get smart. This book teaches would-be entrepreneurs the skills they need to get through the venture capital process with companies that will survive to grow and succeed. Rob Ryan, a pioneer in the high-tech industry, founded Ascend Communications in 1989 and throughout the nineties provided firms with the infrastructure they needed to keep up with the rapid growth of the Internet. At the beginning of 1999, Ascend was sold to Lucent for 25 billion dollars. Since retiring from Ascend and starting Entrepreneur America, Ryan has helped launch a string of successful companies, including Virtmed, RightNow and Virtual Ink. All provide electronic solutions to real-world problems, meet existing - rather than manufactured - needs and save their customers time and money. In "Smartups", Ryan focuses on methods he's developed over the years for building a sustainable business that makes money.He emphasizes the importance of testing ideas on customers and making sure that a product offers something new and important. Recognizing a team's key competencies is crucial, Ryan says. He also finds it necessary to take certain steps at the correct stages of a company's inception.

Nothing New - This is a renamed version of 2001 Version
20. November 2002
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is nothing more than a renamed paperback version of Rob's 2001 "Entrepreneur America: Lessons from Inside Rob Ryan's High-Tech Start-Up Boot Camp". The origional book gets a 5 star rating from me. (...)this was promoted as a new book, not a new printing with a different name. If you already have the earlier edition, don't waste your money on this one. If you don't, buy it and learn from Rob. My criticism is the lack of disclosure that this is a reprint and the false expectations that were built from the advertising that this actually offered new content from an author I greatly respect and will automatically purchase any of his new books.

In-your-face Entrepreneur Brainstorming
21. Juni 2003
Format:Taschenbuch
This is the newly released paperback version of Rob Ryan's earlier Entrepreneur America book. Great basic advice from a guy born in the Bronx and nurtured in the Valley who wnet on to found Ascend. Ryan pulls no punches in leading the reader (and his select entrepreneurs) on asking the hard questions about their ideas, companies and products to determine a core value propostion (and if there is one!). Definitely a must-read for anyone wanting to start a new business regardless of whether you've done it once or ten times! (So where's my autographed edition, Rob?)

SMARTUPS should be required reading in every MBA and Entrepreneurship Program
26. März 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
If you're an entrepreneur or you think you can spell entrepreneur, you should read this book. His incredible success at guiding his own company and then several other multi-billion dollar companies is a unique opportunity for wanna-bes to learn the real secret to the keys to the goldmine.
I have the opportunity to work with entrepreneurs but have found that we get a heck of a lot more done if they first read SMARTUPS. Their ability to see how real companies are developed and grow is increased exponentially.
This book should be a required reading at every college and university that strives to teach entrepreneurship or leadership. The students deserve to know how the real world works and that just a 75 page business plan is not the way to really develop and grow an idea into a real company.
I also have the pleasure of knowing Rob and am thrilled that he's released a great new website http://www.entrepreneur-america.com/ (the videos are worth their weight in gold) and that he's working on a new book that will help entrepreneurs understand why too many continue to focus on the wrong lamposts. I hope it's going to focus on the Sunflower model.
Can't wait for the new book. The folks I work with will be reading two books... On behalf of the successful entrepreneurs I work with, thanks Rob.
