NOTE

Growth is Not a Given

The notion that growth in revenue and scale is linear is a common misconception. Businesses often mistakenly assume that increasing staff or doubling revenue from one year to the next will naturally follow. However, various factors influence whether growth can be sustained, such as the effectiveness of marketing channels, the saturation of product offerings, and the actual performance metrics like email list size and conversion rates. Increased headcount does not guarantee operational efficiency or sales growth, as one must consider the complexities and potential diminishing returns that come with scaling. Realistic evaluation of these fundamentals is essential, as past successes may not represent a continuing trend.
