I think your advice's spot on: 1. focus, 2. Avoid feature creep. Regarding control, I wanted to add what Ryan Carson's 2 cents regarding VC funding: "I was against raising venture capital for a long time. I felt giving away some control of your company would be distracting. Now that we’ve raised $5m, I can say raising money with the right investor will really push you faster and harder as an entrepreneur. It feels like going from university sports to the pros. The pace is faster and everyone is more experienced. I’m so glad we’ve raised money and it’s taken me to the next level as a business owner."
