Have you ever wonder what goes on inside a startup? This Infographic depicts it pretty accurately.

I love ABC’s show Shark Tank. The show gives budding entrepreneurs the chance to make their dreams come true, and possibly make a business deal that will make them a millionaire. A panel of five tough, self-made, multi-millionaire/billionaire tycoons will hear pitches of the best business and product ideas from some of America’s brightest entrepreneurs in a wide range of areas, including; children’s products, music, sports, automotive, and other markets. The entrepreneurs who dare to enter the “Shark Tank” must try to convince the panel to part with their own hard-earned cash and give them the funding they desperately need to jumpstart their business ideas.
What draws me to this show every Friday night (thank goodness for DVRs) is that it authentically depicts the endless siege that an entrepreneur faces every day as they grow a startup. Planning and executing a startup is one of the hardest things you can do in order to make sure you stay on course. Learning how to scale a small business, while keeping your focus, is the key to any startup’s success. This infographic from Udemy provides an excellent illustration about the different roles in a startup as you progress from idea to reality. For anyone who hasn’t been inside the core of a newly formed company, it could be hard to understand what each role really does within the startup. Having personally been involved in two successful startups that were acquired – I believe that this infographic depicts the realities well.
