I think the most relevant question that engineers start a company with isn't
"What's the future?"
Guy Kawasaki
As much as "Wouldn't it be cool if?"

A focus group at Apple is defined as Steve's left hemisphere is connected to his
right hemisphere!
Guy Kawasaki
That was the 2 members of the focus group! That's it!
Guy Kawasaki
It's very unlikely you can ask a focus group what they want and come up with anything useful!
Guy Kawasaki
I'll save you the money, they'll tell you: Better, Faster, Cheaper Status Quo!

When somebody says "Come back to us when you have more revenue or when you have a

I don't know!

What venture capitalists want to hear in the first 30 seconds is not who
the hell you are!
Guy Kawasaki
Cause the odds are, you don't have a proven time record, or else you wouldn't be raising money!
Guy Kawasaki
What you need to do in the first 30 seconds is explain what the hell you do!
Guy Kawasaki
Until you explain what the hell you do, it doesn't matter who you are!

A+ players don't want to be constantly
micromanaged!
Guy Kawasaki
Almost by definition, if you can micromanage somebody, you probably don't have an A+ player.

Some things need to be believed
to be seen.
Guy Kawasaki
You have to believe in your product, you have to ship it, and then people will see it!
Guy Kawasaki
If you don't believe it then it'll never happen, if you wait for proof it will never happen.
Guy Kawasaki
You have to believe!

Hire people who're
better than you!
Guy Kawasaki
If you're the CEO you should say with great pride:
Guy Kawasaki
"I have someone in charge of sales who's better at sales than I am!"

Steve Jobs taught me that A players hire A players! B players
hire C players!
Guy Kawasaki
When you hire a C player, guess what a C player hires? A D player!
Guy Kawasaki
This is called a Bozo Explosion!
Guy Kawasaki
The moment you lower your standards and hire a B player is when a Bozo Explosion starts!

Apple's testimony is that value is very different
from price.
Guy Kawasaki
If you compete on price as an entrepreneur, it's a very very difficult thing!

Don't worship religions and fads! At one point, Apple believed that a closed system
would work,
Guy Kawasaki
at one point it believed a closed system would work!
Guy Kawasaki
Apple was never stuck on whether we followed the open or closed model!
Guy Kawasaki
All that mattered to Apple and Steve is it either worked or not!

In your presentations, it's a very simple algorithm, use big graphics
and big font!
Guy Kawasaki
Steve Jobs puts up slides that are one word! His minimum font size seems to be about 60 points!
Guy Kawasaki
BIG Graphics, BIG Font!

Don't think about human interface and design like a little layer on top of your
great algorithms!
Guy Kawasaki
For what it is, it IS the product for most people!
Guy Kawasaki
It's not the great algorithm, it's the skin of it. Design truly does count!
