 The TIP rule for the success of any project


In the world of investment, it is not enough to have capital or a brilliant idea, but you need clear foundations to follow. Many startups fail because they lack the essential elements that ensure growth and continuity.


 From the experiences of

  • investors and entrepreneurs, the most important of
  • these foundations can be summarized in a simple rule known
  • as TIP, i.e. Team – Teamwork, Idea – Idea, Plan – Business Plan.

In this article

  1. we'll learn about each element of
  2. the rule and why it's the foundation of
  3. any successful project.

                                                 

First: The Team (Team)


No project is successful without a strong team. A founder may have a great idea, but turning it into reality requires people with diverse skills:

  • Specialized in management and organization.
  • Technical expert or technicians for product development.
  • Creative people in marketing and brand building.


A successful team is like a piece of Basel, each individual complements the other. Most importantly, there is a spirit of cooperation and trust among members.

 How many unique ideas failed due to the team's weakness or lack of harmony between them? Therefore, investors consider the team to be the first thing they look at before pumping money into any project.




Second: The idea (Idea)

After the team, comes the idea. The idea should be:

  • New or at least offers an innovative solution to an existing problem.
  • Applicable on the ground.
  • It has a target market that it can serve.

A successful idea

  • is one that is built on real need, not just momentary enthusiasm.
  • For example, delivery apps emerged because they addressed a real-life
  • problem that people suffer from: time constraints and difficulty navigating. 

Investors are always looking for a "growthable idea"

 (Scalable Idea) that can be expanded and developed over time.



Third: Business Plan (Plan)

A team and an idea are not enough without a clear plan. 
A business plan is a map that defines:


  • What are the project objectives?
  • How will it be achieved?
  • What are the expected costs and profits?
  • What is the implementation schedule?


A good business plan makes the investor more confident in the project, because it shows him that there is a clear vision and not just dreams. It also helps the team itself know its direction and avoid randomness in decisions.

Real examples

Uber (Uber): It started with the simple idea of "ordering a car over the phone", but what made it succeed was a strong technical and marketing team and a smart expansion plan.

Project Failed:

On the other hand, there are hundreds of apps that tried to imitate Uber but failed because they did not have an outstanding team or a well-thought-out plan.


Success in investing is not a coincidence, but the result of clear elements:
 a strong team, an innovative idea, and a solid business plan. 


This is the TIP rule that

major investors rely on when evaluating new projects.

  •  If you are thinking about entering the world of investment
  • or entrepreneurship, always remember that capital alone does
  • not make success, but rather people, plans and ideas make the difference.
