Achieving World Domination

Editor's Notes

  • #20: Iterate all the time. What is successful today, won’t work as well tomorrow. Every business is different. Better to learn from other’s mistakes rather than trying to replicate their successful strategy Great product is “table-stakes” today. Not enough to win big. Pay attention to what advisors and experts say, but at the end all that matters is what “good” customers and the market say to you. It’s all about “sustainable” growth. If you don’t grow, then there is little hope.
