This company's product has a critical mass marketing problem; as more people know about this Brazilian company and the biz model, the more the product is devalued. i.e. Now that I know this, I'm just going to assume that all my FB friends w

Agreed, and just one of many false assumptions. He assumes an early startup CEO must always have a later stage startup CEO skills ("you must have all 4 magic unicorn skillz"). During the early period, you need product execution first and fo
