Samenvatting

This is the second edition of the Startup Workbook. This workbook is different from the first version. The first version, which was made with a so called touch-grant from Saxion, was primarily a digital version. In addition, the book was printed as a deluxe edition in a limited number of copies. The eBook has quickly been downloaded thousands of times through the website (www.startupwerkboek.nl). By using the Startup Work-book by Startups in the Startup Center Saxion (part of the Center for Entrepreneurship) it was revealed that one has a need to really use it as a workbook. That is, the questions that are in the book, must be filled in. Some Startups printed out the downloaded version, to be able to use it for writing answers.
The printed version has therefore become a real book. That means that the questions can be answered directly in the book. It is in a writable form. If you have access to the Toolbox, you can also fill in the online questionnaire after each step, which you then will get mailed back. If required we can then remotely assist you with your cus-tomer development based on your reply.
Another change in this version is that the business devel-opment trajectory isn’t spread over 12 weeks, but spread over 12 steps. A startup probably needs a week for a certain step, whereas another startup may sometimes need more time.
This second edition is still primarily an eBook, which is free to download. The advantage of the eBook is that adjustments can be made quickly (the knowledge and methodologies for startups go so fast), and direct links to other website can be used easier when presented in an electronic way.
