Schedule intentional monthly time to leave the trees and survey the forest — because good aim precedes huge investment.

Evaluate people in three dimensions — skills, attributes, and values — not skills alone, which is only ~50% predictive.

Split onboarding into a spare mandatory setup and a random-access optional layer — model the buyer's mind, not your features.

Build on a problem so acute customers spontaneously ask to pay — it becomes a tailwind that carries your mistakes.

Separate targeted Discovery, always-on Continuous Conversations, and passive Customer Listening — each needs its own machinery.

A product must make the customer at least 3x better before they notice enough to switch and pay.

Real virality is high-quality word of mouth from a great product — not synthetic referral traps bolted on top.

Score a B2B SaaS idea on two axes — workflow breadth and frequency — to predict billion-dollar potential.
