Why Startups Crash and Burn: The Real Story 🔥

Startup Failure Statistics

The numbers on startup failures are pretty scary. Recent studies show that 42% of startups fail because nobody wants what they're selling. Another 29% simply run out of money, while 14% mess up their marketing.

Big companies aren't safe either. Take Nokia and Kodak - they were huge names once. Nokia missed the boat on smartphones, and Kodak stuck to film cameras when everyone was going digital. Both paid a big price for not keeping up with changes.

Money is another big problem right now. Forbes tells us that getting investment cash is harder than ever. Many new companies can't get the money they need to grow or try new things.

The odds aren't great for new businesses. Studies show that about 90% of startups don't make it, with 10% failing in their first year alone. The key takeaway? New companies need to really know their market, watch their money, and be ready to change when needed.
