How to Scale Your Startup
INSPIRED BY:DinnerLab
The first step in scaling is to take a step back with your team and identify each
inefficiency in your business model. Remove them as much as possible.
INSPIRED BY:HomeHero
Develop your company on your home turf and gain trust with each of those clients before
expanding. Product market fit is the only promise of growth — even the GM of Uber doesn’t
know how they get their customers.
INSPIRED BY:DinnerLab
Whether you’re the CEO or Director of Marketing, be comfortable admitting that you
aren’t the smartest person to do the job. Delegate tasks and play an active role in their execution.
INSPIRED BY:WorkPop
Especially for young companies, establish a clear division of labor where department
leaders have the authority to make decisions without consulting the entire team.
INSPIRED BY:DinnerLab
Adopt the DinnerLab Mentality: “Employees first, customers second.”
Prioritize your culture as the most important part of your business. Companies can’t
scale without the right team.
INSPIRED BY:DinnerLab
Cultivate an open and honest culture where employees feel comfortable being
100% honest about the way they feel.
INSPIRED BY:WorkPop
Embrace healthy debate. Forget about cultivating a “feel good culture” and focus on
actively working through each problem.
INSPIRED BY:HomeHero
Empower your employees to be the experts by providing them with a platform to share their knowledge. Internal education is the most
powerful driver of your growth.
INSPIRED BY:Exo Protein
The early days are the perfect opportunity to do things that don’t scale. Dedicate yourself to cultivating intimate relationships with each
customer. Try sending personal emails or calling them to talk about their experiences using your product.
INSPIRED BY:DinnerLab
Recognize that your entire business is predicated off of experimentation. Give up on trying to know every answer and drive energy
from working through your challenges. Be prepared to make mistakes, but never
make the same one twice.
INSPIRED BY:Movable Ink
There will always be a company who is bigger, badder, and better than you. Stay competitive by constantly raising the bar on
who you compare yourself too.
INSPIRED BY:HomeHero
The only sign of life is growth. If you aren’t meeting your milestones it’s time to pivot.
