No growth hack, brilliant marketing idea, or sales team can save you long term if you don't have a sufficiently good product.

It really is true that you become an average of the people you spend the most time with.

Just put a little pin in your mind: when you cross 50 employees, there are a new set of HR rules that you have to comply with.

You should always know how you're doing against your metrics. You should always have a weekly review meeting every week.

Employees will only add more value over time.

You should be able to describe any employee as an animal at what they do.

AirBnB spent 5 months interviewing their first employee, before they hired someone and in their first year, they only hired 2 people.
