Thank you for that perspective and congratulations!

If I may ask a similar question: did you feel, once you signed up the first employee, that there was a point early on that staff growth was too slow or too fast?

Congratulations again!

Over the entire 10 years it's always felt like we have been too slow to hire and needed a person in a role 3-6 months earlier.

We were a team of 5 when we hired our first full-time customer service agent. Until that hire, we would each take a day of customer support which eventually meant that our iOS engineer was answering user emails for ~6 hours a week.

Thank you! (In my past IC/employee experience I had noticed the same.)
