The Startup Story You Should Remember

Debt, unsurmountable challenges, loneliness, and hope. These are probably words that all startup founders can relate to. And although the majority of startups fail, it is good to hear of those that went through hell and came back stronger.

The SlideShare presentation below tells the story of MOZ (formerly known as SEOMoz), from their early start with thousands of dollars in debt, failed attempts at raising capital, changing business model, up to where they are today. 

Rand Fishkin, founder of MOZ, is a great storyteller and shares details that other companies try to hide. In this presentation, aptly titled “The Hard Truths of Entrepreneurship”, Rand gives us a candid account of their journey and important lessons throughout. It is one of those “must see” presentations.
