Phyzit’s 5 Tips for Startup Success

Little Rock startup Phyzit, an Innovate Arkansas client firm, earlier this year began marketing an app that aims to help patients and health-care providers communicate better.

The Phyzit TCM app, the idea for which was hatched by Little Rock pediatric urologist Stephen Canon, was designed to improve the transitional care management process.

Canon said running a medical practice can be quite different from the challenges of launching a startup. Read more on Phyzit’s launch here. In the meantime, Canon and his team offered up their five tips for startup success:

1. Be passionate about the problem you’re trying to solve.
2. Build a fantastic management team that compliments each other with synergistic effect.
3. Be an entrepreneur, not a wantapreneur.
4. Enjoy the challenge.
5. Listen to your customers. They’ll give you the answers.

Bonus tip: Focus, focus, focus.
