Entrepreneurship

Too many startups go under after riding hype to enormous investment without knowing what to do with all that money. Need capital from right investors, not just any investors. Venture capitalists can be tricky, so research their portfolios to ensure no competing investments. Be realistic - for every entrepreneur who aces their first pitch, far more are rejected time and again but still achieve greater things.

Scaling from 20 staff and 100 customers to 200 staff and 1,000 customers amplifies every process gap. Without consistent business processes, organizations develop siloed fiefdoms that destroy communication and collaboration. Automation eliminates human error during scaling periods, preventing the firefights that occur when process management fails and infrastructure can't handle increased workload.
