My take: you try to do something that could scale, but maybe doesn't. You might start with something that doesn't scale to explore market fit and figure out whether it's worth genuine automation.
Seems like the problem here was either choosing not to or simply not being able to automate their process.
- brianwawok 11y agoMy take is prove if it works and gets enough traction before you fuss over how well you scaled. If that meant you had to hire 100 people to fax things for a year or two, that seems reasonable (especially if you aren't losing massive money because of it). I suspect you could still be profitable without automating 100% of selling insurance. Source: Every other insurance agency out there.
