Now it’s time to accelerate that success and transition from a startup to a sustainable business 

Growth traps are an inevitable part of scale and knowing some of the traps can help you to prepare. Preparation doesn’t mean you will avoid them, but it will allow you to be on the front foot, to be more responsive and less reactive when fighting the fires. 

You’ll have a better chance of realising the milestones in your roadmaps.

Congratulations! You’ve raised your funds and now it’s all systems go to build your business and grow like you’ve never grown before.

Now is the time to prioritise and understand the outcomes you need so that you can make good decisions.
