We patented the product — did it provide legal protection?

Thanks, this was very helpful.

the cheap-looking path usually ends up costting more later. the moment you depend on a single client you no longer set the price.

if you have questions, write them; I'll answer as best I can.

thanks a lot Ill try it today.

Let me summarize what's been said so far. When making decisions, write down the worst-case scenario too, not just the best.

Just leaving this note, it might be useful.

Timely topic.

I'd appreciate it if you shared the outcome.

I can't fully agree with this. When making decisions, write down the worst-case scenario too, not just the best.

The answer varies greatly by industry; there is no one-size-fits-all rule. If I were you, I'd go this route.

We experienced almost the exact same thing last year. Everything goes well for the first three months; problems arise in the fourth.

Of course, it varies if your situation is different.

You're right I've been down that road too. Just because everyone does it doesn't mean it's right.

Good luck with that.

The answer above hits the nail on the head. Hasty decisions become decisions you have to fix six months later.

The first thing to break as you grow is communication, not the numbers. Good luck with that.

To get into the details: Pausing growth to breathe is also a strategy, nobody says that.

Don't hesitate to ask; those who don't ask always pay more. If you have questions, write them; I'll answer as best I can.

Noted, thanks. When we decide without measuring, we always end up in the same place.

I'm also curious if anyone does it differently.

Do you think this works at any scale? Everything goes well for the first three months; problems arise in the fourth.

The first thing to break as you grow is communication, not the numbers. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Let's separate the concepts, they're getting mixed up. When the closure decision was made is as decisive as the decision itself.

I'd say don't rush. People defend habits, not processes. Resistance comes from there.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

I'd say don't rush. Extending terms makes customers happy but turns you into a financing institution.

That's all, sorry if I went on too long.

Great work.

if you're going this route, sort this out first. like the moment you depend on a single clent you no longer set the price.

extending terms makes customers happy but turns you into a financing institution but tbh this is my opiniion I'm not claiming it's absolute truth.
