I know I just shut it down and you know it was actually very painful and probably I should have done this like earlier several months earlier maybe one year earlier but you know when it's the first time you are too attached to what you do like a small kid of yours and you know even numbers were kind of screaming just you know stop stop stop but I couldn't so this is a one advice I want to

So I don't want to grow a really huge team.

go to market strategy, like test some marketing hypothesis.

So currently, we don't have, we have zero marketing budget.

So all our growth is organic.

But you know, we need to start testing some hypothesis and maybe to hire like some junior sales.

Oh, that's hard.

Okay.

I love one by Netflix, which is like how we build the culture of freedom and responsibility.

And it helped me a lot communicating the things to my team.
