" But how can one pull off that kind of growth -- especially with a limited budget and resources?

Profitability is a key measure of a company's success, especially for startups. Investors want to know if a company's core activities can result in a profit, so they can get a return on their investment. Approximately 20% of small businesses fail in their first year of business.

Salespeople work hard to build an account list. Most clients on your list have been researched, painstakingly approached, and developed over time. Maybe a few just fell into your lap. But you value them all. Sure, some may be easier to work with than others, but you have no reason to change anything. Why would you? Because the path that leads to a larger account list is not just more clients, but better clients.

One of the most important growth factors that enable a company to blitzscale is distribution. Many people in Silicon Valley like to focus on building products that are, in the famous words of the late Steve Jobs, “insanely great.”. Great products are certainly a positive -- we’ll discuss the lack of product quality as a growth limiter later on -- but the cold and unromantic fact is that a good product with great distribution will almost always beat a great product with poor distribution.

As it turns out, this isn't the proper way to maintain a ledger at all. Whoops. Instead, financially-minded individuals -- and businesses -- use ledgers to fastidiously document money that's they're paying out, or being paid.

The age-old advice on emotions in the workplace has been to leave your emotions at the door, and be rational. The idea that reason is superior (and thus provides the best solutions) to emotions dates back to 2,500 years ago when Pythagoras suggested that reason is related to the mind, but emotions are related to the body (and are thus inferior). This view dictates that in order to make the best decision, one should leave their emotions out of the process and allow reason to do its job.
