If your startup is not gettin’ busy growing, you’re gettin’ busy dying.
Good advice for start-ups on the concept of perpetual growth.
- noodle 17y agoi'd change this to "always be trying to grow". growth isn't infinite and isn't necessarily linear. sometimes you might plateau or contract. but once you're complacent with your levels and stop trying to grow, you have a problem.
- numbchuckskills 17y agoTrue about growth not being infinite, but 'growth' doesn't just need to be traffic. "Peaking" and plateauing is something unique to about .000001% of online companies with broad appeal.
- noodle 17y agotrue, and non-traffic growth is also not infinite. or, at least, shouldn't be perceived as such.
- jerryji 17y agoWhile I appreciate the (universally true) idea, the post (and the site in general) is a bit too fluffy for me to learn anything tangible. It's kind of like when you are training for the Olympic games, people shout at you "If you don't run the fastest in the world, you won't win the gold medal!" Yeh, great advice.
