Building processes and systems to scale is much harder than having a small biz with your buddy as your business partner.
More people mean more problems– and everyone will have an opinion, whether they are qualified to give it or not.
Seek growth via credible advisors– people who have repeatedly done what you’d like to do.
Treat failures along the way not with despair or frustration but as opportunities to continue tuning your people, process, and platform.
You are a mechanic building an engine– more complex than a bicycle, but worth it.
