We moved the warehouse, business stopped for 3 weeks — what did I learn?

Same here.

There's also a measurement aspect to this. The answer varies greatly by industry; there is no one-size-fits-all rule.

Of course, it varies if your situation is different.

I disagree with you on this point. When you try to change everything at once nothing settles.

When we decide without measuring we always end up in the same place. like this is my opinion Im not claiming its absolute truth.

Exactly, and not many people know this. Everyone rushing into moving the warehouse gets stuck at the same point.

I'm also curious if anyone does it differently.

The discussion got scattered, let me summarize. Mistakes made on the moving the warehouse side are usually reversible but expensive.

I'd appreciate it if you shared the outcome.

There's one point I'm curious about. When making a decision, first look at what data you have on hand.

Just leaving this note, it might be useful.

If you're going this route, sort this out first. Delaying bad news is the habit that causes the most losses in this job.

The reason for failure isn't one big mistake, but the accumulation of small decisions. That's all sorry if I went on too long.

i disagree with you on this point.. then honestly when making a decision, first look at what data you have on hand.

Exactly and not many people know this. anyway the biggest time-waster for us was not knowing who had the final say.

If I were you Id go this route.

Do you think this works at any scale? The harder it is to reverse a decision, the slower you should make it.

I'm also curious if anyone does it differently.

Saved.

You're right I've been down that road too. anyway start with a small trial; don't commit to everything at once.

Second-time founders don't make the same mistakes but find new ones. honestly hope this helps.

The cheap-looking path usually ends up costing more later. If you don't write this down from the start, it leads to arguments later.

Cutting your own salary is a temporary tactic; if it lasts more than six months, something will break. This is my opinion, I'm not claiming it's absolute truth.

I was thinking the same thing. The real issue isnt the number, but what its based on.

If you post the result here, it will help others too.

My questions are cleared up, thanks.

We need to take it step by step... The real issue isnt the number but what its based on.

Good luck with that.
