Definitely agree with the advice. One objection that people often have is that "why should I do something that's not ultimately scalable and that I'll have to stop doing anyway?". But what they're missing is that when you're first starting a company that's when the fragile young plant needs the greatest care and nurture. In my opinion you should actually go out of your way to do things that you KNOW won't be possible to do manually or personally later because this not only increases the chances of getting off the ground successfully, but one day you're going to miss the early days when it was just you and those precious few people that valued your product enough to use it before it became a hit. So enjoy connecting with them and don't think of it as a chore.
