offered in an inferior manner ”

& Founder
Warby Parker is an American brand of prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses founded in 2010. Warby Parker sells online and has a limited number of showrooms in the United States and Canada.
Marketers capitalize on it, and startups will only survive when growth is evident and accelerated.
There is no shipping department, no marketing/sales, human resources, accounting -- there may not even be payroll. There are only smart, quick-thinking, action-oriented people. There are no "regular business hours". There may not even be an "office" aside from the founder's home address.
The number one reason the majority of startup businesses fail is because they are selling a product nobody wants. Forty-two percent of failed startups identified “lack of market need for their product” as the biggest reason for their failure.
Building a strong team is integral to success, but segmenting that team into narrowly focused groups of separate responsibilities can be dangerous. The roles and responsibilities of team members will overlap as small tasks and projects often turn into larger ones.
