Startup’s mouse trap

Most businesses don’t fail overnight - they slowly crumble while the owner is too busy to notice and before they know their business is six feet under🪦.

You think you're doing everything right. You work hard, hustle non-stop, and chase every opportunity. 

But what if the real reason businesses fail isn’t what you expect?

What if the problem isn't money, competition, or even bad timing - but something deeper?

We found a video that exposes the hidden reasons most businesses fail and, more importantly, how to make sure yours doesn’t.

What small, overlooked mistake could be putting your business at risk right now?

And more importantly - how can you fix it before it’s too late? 

Let’s get into it.

Straightaway Cocktails just brought a boozy twist to an old-school holiday tradition - and got their calendar on Costco shelves. With consumer spending up 8% this year, brands are cashing in on the ‘surprise and delight’ factor of advent calendars to stand out. Want to know how they made it work—and how your business can do the same?

The first gig barely lasted three months.

Less than $1,000 in earnings. Nothing to celebrate, right? Most people would have seen it as proof that the freelance dream wasn’t real.

But for this entrepreneur,  Svetoslav Dimitrov, that small taste of online income was enough to spark a journey that would eventually bring in over $17 million for clients - all without leaving his kitchen.

His early struggles were brutal - failed ventures, tiny paychecks, and the constant battle to stand out in a crowded space. 

These were major hurdles for him and can be for any freelancer.

But instead of quitting, he kept learning, kept showing up, and invested in himself. A few gigs turned into steady work.

A mentor helped unlock new opportunities. And after years of grinding, he was running a six-figure business on his own terms.

What if your first failure isn’t a dead end - but a sign you’re just getting started?

The difference between success and giving up is often just one more step forward.

So, have you checked out that video on why businesses fail in Inside Scoop? If not, go do it - seriously, it’s packed with golden insights. 

Now, let’s lock this in:

Every successful business fights through six growth phases - but most never make it past Level 1. 

Why? 

They chase ideas, not execution. 

They dream, but don’t build. 

The brutal truth? 

No product, no business. Period.

Tech skills? Critical. Market demand? Non-negotiable. 

Execution? EVERYTHING.

Theranos fumbled because they built hype, not a real product. 

Quibi burned $1 BILLION proving nobody wanted what they made. You? You're smarter than that.

So here’s your challenge: Build. Test. Adapt. Scale. 

No excuses. No vaporware. Just real, game-changing work.
