3. Your first growth channel should suit the interest and skillset of the founders...

6. How is your local language competition? Could you beat them if you translated?
7. When building a sales team it may be best to have them first focus on expansion revenue.
8. Instead of going out to raise cash, why not wait until your numbers are good enough that the VC’s want to come and work for you...
9. It’s going to take time, but what are you doing today that is informing and reminding your market that you exist?
