Today, we profile Martin Hosking, co-founder of RedBubble, the online arts community that has enjoyed dizzying global success in recent years.

Hosking explains why defining a value proposition has been key to RedBubble’s rise and has some sage words of advice for budding start-ups. He also has his say on why so many traditional retailers are lagging behind when it comes to online.

We have also launched the StartupSmart Awards for 2011. If you are a fast-growth start-up, have battled against the odds to go it alone or simply have a great idea, we urge you to enter.

There’s a top prize worth $10,000, and you will be mentioned on this very newsletter just for entering.
