Good starting article.

I would be more explicit about the fact that ICO's are not for every startup though. I saw you mentioned it but maybe with a bit more venom. Too many startups are creating an ICO for no other reason apart from to raise capital.

I agree, ICO's should really only be done if there is some underlying market/functional mechanism to support the value of the token being issued, but the potential ease of capital raised is way too enticing.

I agree with the above statement, needs a lot more bite. ICO's should only be open to startups who actually trying to use altcoins to change the eco-system, not every tom, dick and harry who wants to make a fast buck.

But i did like that you included about the team and projection of finances, I haven't taken that into consideration before when investing in an ICO.

Let's see what part 2 will bring!

I found it very elaborating. Thanks for sharing!

I think before you want to start an ICO project you need a lot of software engineers and you have to have a team to develop the project, of course if you have a great team you should creates an ICO project that can be developed in the future

Nice article! 

I truly believe that team is very important! You won't be able to build something great without right people.
Also, Reddit and Bitcointalk:
The great thing about these forums is that it allows you to highlight your unique differences to the community and build a relations with your potential customers!

And dont forget about ICO listings as a great PR tool. My TOP 10:

its a nice guide to start an ICO . But the main issue is are you going to build a scam ICO or a real project ?

"So when deciding on launching an ICO, you will have to take into consideration payment for these staff members. We suggest starting to create your ICO 3 month prior to the launch of your pre-ICO which means you will need at least a 6 month runway."

Actually the selection of a unique coin name can be influential, although it looks trivial but can be power thrust into ico success.
By the way his article is very interesting explanation directly and logically

[Crassula]

This is also a good article https://cointelegraph.com/explained/how-to-launch-a-successful-ico-explained

[hunker_down]

I liked the article, talked more about the thoughts behind it rather than how to create it.

Will look forward to part 2!

a good action for you, you are going to make ICO, some things to keep in mind detailing the information from the Project you are about to create. hopefully this will be successful as what you hope ..

[cryptoadmire]

I found the article to be pretty obvious, course you need to think about those things....

[TheDAL]

The good step is to make a deep research of successful ICO examples, including analyzing all the projects that have been failed as well (which were not a scam), to itemize the reasons, mistakes etc...

Well, I think the Blog is great. Keep up the good work.

Thank you for the kind words!

This is true, hence why i put the part about making sure you have the team to pull off the ICO.

Course it is to build a real project, that was just a forecast to make sure that you understand that you need time to build and ICO, and run it. I think some people assume you can create one in a day and start making money from investors.
