99% of the job building the core tech; the other 99% of the job is sales, support, account management, marketing, etc.

It’s never just the product, no matter how much we builder types might like.

(No idea whether 60M is the right number for the rest though.)

Sometimes writing the code is, like, 10% or 20% of the work. Everything else--marketing, hiring, lead gen, legal, accounting, billing, contract negotiation, compliance, on and on--while not creative work, absolutely and disappointingly cannot be ignored.

That adds up to 198%, but that’s effectively correct when you’re scaling up a company!
