Growing and building are different things. You're conflating them. A lot of solo entrepreneurs want to build a small lifestyle business, not a team, they don't want to grow it. A lot developers would kill to have a successful app that's just big enough to replace the need to work for someone else, and small enough to not require anyone but him to run it.
- petenixey 14y agoYou're right in that growth per-se does not of course need a team. What I should have said was high-scale growth. It is of course possible that to some degree, even high-scale growth can happen without team but I think the most sure-fire route to it is by building an amazing team of talented people.
- gnaritas 14y agoSure, an amazing team is great if that's what you seek, but you're still assuming growth is the goal of building a business; I'm trying to say it isn't. Building a biz and growing one are different things, but I see you did edit your original statement to remove the inconsistency, so nevermind I guess.
