There's tons of companies like Clinkle, where the founder literally and figuratively looked just like Zuckerberg. Looking the part doesn't guarantee success, but it often does guarantee a few huge rounds of funding, at very impressive valuations.



Clinkle got $25million before they even built a product, from the tsunami of money raining down all over Silicon Valley post-Facebook IPO. Very different from Facebook which actually had traction.
