How does your Startup's Valuation increase?

How does your startup's valuation increase?

As your startup's risks are reduced, and following milestones are hit, the valuation goes up:

1. Do you know, what problem are you solving? Is this a big problem and right one to solve?

2. Does your solution or product/service actually works, and solve the problem ?

3. Does someone pay for your product/service?

4. Are many people paying for your product/service?

5. Are non-founders able to sell this?

6. Is your growth process scaling or scalable?

7. Are you scaling without excessive churn?

8. Are you scaling profitably?

As you hit these milestones, and scale, you are de-risking your startup, and valuation goes up.
