Can you name some examples of successful startups which did not get big fast?
- olefoo 14y ago37Signals, &yet, ColourLovers; just to pick a few examples from those that might be familiar to HN readers. The Googles and the Facebooks, the Yammers and the Zappos's are outliers in terms of scale. That's what makes them interesting.
- kjhughes 14y agoThe very point being made is that Don Lancaster describes how to be successful in business without having to get big fast. KK is merely pointing out how Don did this before entrepreneurism came to be associated with fast growth. Your question and ef4's comment are caught in an attractor of a different debate.
