Assumptions may not be always good in startups

The first sign of success for any entrepreneur apart from getting the 1st customer is also getting the first investor on board .

There is always a great value any investor brings on to the business apart from the money, is the great business sense which can be valuable to any entrepreneur

Now this doesn't mean that an entrepreneur should assume that he has the backing of the investor for ever . We need to keep in mind that investor is also a business man who has put in his money in the business & his interest levels are high as far as his financial interests are intact.

The moment the investor feels that the company is not going in the right direction , they have all the right to switch themselves off , which may not be a desirable situation for any entrepreneur.

An entrepreneur should always look to expand the investor base as this can be a major flip for scaling up for future apart from financial validation & security

After all we have numerous instances of startups disappearing even after raising multiple rounds of funding
