Rework
by
by

- Need a commitment strategy not an exit strategy
- Limited resources forces you to be creative
- Nail basics worry details later
- It doesn't matter if you plan, you'll get stuff wrong anyways
- Writing a plan makes you feel in control of things you can't control
Hiring:
- Run with the ball as long as you can
- You may hire or learn, trying learning first
- You should be involved in all aspects of your business, otherwise you'll have to trust others with your business, that's dangerous
- Hire when it hurts
- Don't hire for pleasure, hire to kill pain
- Problems start when you have more people than you need. You start inventing work to keep everyone busy
When talking to customers:
- Take blame I apology is better
- Culture is the by product of consistency
- Out teach & out support, not outsell
