I have experience with this I should say: growing without investment depends on a few factors... honestly gather the data first, don't make emotional decisions.
this was an issue for me too thx. ended up having to find another way. really stressful situation.

I agree, and I'd like to emphasize that. The real issue isn't the number, but what it's based on.
The most overlooked point about growing without investment is this: Valuation methods for exits must be defined by formula; "market value" isn't enough.
Give trial work but pay for it; free trials don't bind anyone. Proven by experience.

Following. When we decide without measuring, we always end up in the same place.
If you don't write this down from the start, it leads to arguments later. Proven by experience.

Let me jump in. Two different issues are getting mixed up in this thread: first, the undefined scope, and second, the unclear ownership. The issue won't be resolved until both are addressed separately.

There's a common mistake people make when doing this. People defend habits, not processes. Resistance comes from there.
Valuation methods for exits must be defined by formula; "market value" isn't enough. This is my opinion, I'm not claiming it's absolute truth.
