Most new businesses fail. And they die remarkably young: The typical new business lasts 20 months and spends one million pounds in investment before closing its doors. So what's the formula for success for those new businesses that make it through the early trials, converting their early success into either being bought or floating on the stock market? What are the lessons that first time entrepreneurs and employees need to know to navigate their way to success?
