GREAT IDEA IS NOT ENOUGH TO BE SUCCESSFUL
-VERIFIED BUSINESS MODEL IS A MUST!
Sean Ellis was cited on Business Insider where he emphasized a major problem that startup founders have to develop and validate their first business model on their own. It’s too expensive to hire seasoned consultants at such early stage. Sean is absolutely right! That's why I’ve created this highly practical step-by-step online course for early stage startup founders.
Validate your innovative startup idea and get initail traction in 45 days or less.

Michal Tomek Co-founder & Editor at Slovak STARTUP
Donatas has gathered together the essentials that I would love to have received from my entrepreneurship classes in high school and during my Business University degree. Startup Evolution Curve is in the same league with The Four Steps to the Epiphany by Steve Blank and The Art of Start by Guy Kawasaki. I would recommend Startup Evolution Curve to startup enthusiasts, first time or serial entrepreneurs, and even to my own kids!
Denis Todirica StartupChile Entrepreneur. Forbes 30 under 30
It's a must-read material for any entrepreneur who is thinking big. If you are planning to turn your ideas into a profitable company, this book is for you. As an entrepreneur, and entrepreneurship teacher in one of the best business schools in Argentina, I would say this book contains all the information any startup needs that is usually not explained in college. You don’t have to reinvent the wheel - Startup Evolution Curve helps avoiding common mistakes and shows shortcuts to success.

If you are looking for foundations of how to build an innovative business, here it is! Startup Evolution Curve is like a textbook with essential checkup points. Secondly, it's easy to read. Donatas goes straight to the point without any idle talk.
Alexander Soloveicik Serial Entrepreneur & Advisor at Silicon Valley Real Ventures
Startup Evolution Curve is one the greatest books I have read, one that not only wisely and realistically touches some of the most intricate pain-points of startups, but also offers an equally wise, simplified, and detailed solution. It opens your mind to different possibilities and perspectives. Therefore, I would love to refer it to every startup, aspirant, businessman, and student I know.
Karan Rajani Startup Advisor. Columnist @Yo! Success
I know how challenging it is to build a successful startup. If I could have read this book before creating my first startup, I would have avoided many pitfalls and tons of frustration. My philosophy is to always be coached and this book is full of guidance, not only for the early stage entrepreneurs but also for the already successful ones. None of the books will keep you from failure, but this one will definitely help you make better decisions.
Ariel Mizrahi Serial Entrepreneur & Mentor at StartupMexico
Startup Evolution Curve is a masterpiece of practical, actionable, and easy-to-follow steps to turn an idea into a profitable and scalable business. Donatas has provided would-be entrepreneurs with a blueprint for building a business, along with some excellent templates and tools to help you during the journey. I am very impressed with the depth of the research, the range of examples and case studies, and the honesty and sincerity with which Donatas provides advice and guidance.
Debra Partridge Owner PearTree Consulting
All entrepreneurs dream of building a successful business. Startup Evolution Curve is undoubtedly a guide and a mandatory reading that will help us to follow the path we idealized at the beginning of our entrepreneurial journey.
Carlos Rubinstein Founder & CEO at Talentix
I don’t know any book that sums up better the startup evolution and growth than the ‘Startup Evolution Curve‘ by Dr. Donatas Jonikas: The question isn’t only what you should do; it’s what and when you should do. So, if you are early stage startup founder and already have some innovative ideas, this is one of the most thought-provoking books you should give a try in 2017.
Velimir Tasic Co-founder of ESAA entrepreneurship incubator
Startup Evolution Curve reveals must-know essentials and strategies for early-stage startup founders. You just need to read it and implement recommendations relevant to your case step-by-step. It is impressive how Donatas collected all the essentials and must know's for startups in one, easy-to-read book! I highly recommend Startup Evolution Curve to every startup founder from idea to the growth stage as a Bible of a startup journey.
Nelli Orlova Co-founder & CEO at InnMind
Dr. Jonikas combines academic research, observations from studying hundreds of startups, and personal experience to craft a solid framework for taking a new venture from idea stage through solid growth. His advice includes both what should be done, and what mistakes to avoid. He also references a variety of online tools that might be missing from other "how to" books, even a year or two old. It's a solid reference book for experienced entrepreneurs and a valuable roadmap for first-time founders. It is well worth the read!
Akira Hirai Managing Director at Cayenne Consulting
It's an engaging book for all startups. It provides a lot of case studies which helps in understanding how it was implemented in a particular case. I recommend startups to learn and more importantly implement the strategies outlined in this book.
