Your Startup Is Not The Enemy, It's Your Dance Partner (prtipsforstartups.com)

Title is ambiguous, it is either referring to startup, or enemy.. "Your startup is not the enemy, it's your dance partner...that is the enemy"

Personally, I find that hilarious, an villain of a dance partner.

At any rate, I don't really like the idea of humanizing something as cold and unfeeling as a 'startup'. Dance is art, beauty, skill, self expression, but it really fails to connotate the risk and danger of failure that war as a metaphor does.


I like the metaphor, and I'll extend it by saying you want to assemble the best dance crew you can find!


Thanks, Hong! These guys definitely get it done as a dance crew: http://www.jbwkz.com/


I love the name! Congrats! :)


Thanks, Deyson.
