Navigating the profitability vs. growth conundrum is a significant challenge for startups in 2024.

Maria Gonzalez-Blanch, Managing Partner at Crescent Ridge VC offers a unique perspective: "Slow down before running fast." Here's how startups can balance these priorities:

🔎 Early-Stage Focus: Emphasize product testing, market validation, and refining the business model before scaling, using minimal funds to reduce waste and strengthen the product.

🌱 Sustainable Growth: For companies already in growth mode, prioritize core activities, streamline operations, and form strategic partnerships to manage resources effectively.

📊 Data-Driven Decisions: Leverage customer data to allocate resources for maximum impact and focus on upselling and cross-selling within the existing customer base.

By adopting a measured and strategic approach, startups can achieve both profitability and sustainable growth, even in a tight financial landscape.

💡 Thought of the Day: Maximizing Cash Efficiency

I recently caught up with a founder who still has a sizeable amount of cash from their last fundraising round. They have a very low burn rate and don’t need so much cash on hand immediately. During our conversation, it came up that all this money has been sitting in a checking account for almost 24 months, not invested in money markets or other safe, liquid options that could yield an additional 5%+ per year and could have covered several months of extra runway. It’s a simple adjustment, but one that could make a big difference over time.

Founders, if you have excess cash from your last fundraising round that you don’t need right away, consider moving it into a safe investment option. It’s a straightforward way to maximize your resources and boost your runway.
