Building a business in 6 months: Case Study www.powtoon.com

On hand of a case study of how we built www.PowToon.com I would like to draw a picture of: "How to build a company in 6 months or less":

Steps:

1.) Identifying a fantastic market

2.) Validating that there are real buyers for the product before even starting the product creation

3.) Raising money for your idea

4.) Assembling and motivating an incredible team - using global workforce arbitrage

5.) Creating an incredible buzz around the product http://www.powtoon.com/blog/powtoon-love-board/

6.) Creating an incredible product with massive user involvement from the start

All this in less than 6 months!!!!!

The principles used to build this company are 100% transferable - and I have used them, and will use them again and again....
