If you're trying to create a company, it's like baking a cake. You have to have all the ingredients in the right proportion.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Just about anyone can make a good product, but it's the people that count. In the end, it's the employees who will take it from a kitchen-table idea to the next level. There are a lot of important things in business, but the people portion comes first.
You want to do a few things really well because you want to come out with a product that is fully baked, even though it may be lacking in a few features or whatever, rather than the one that's all-achieving but not doing anything too well.
The first time you make something, follow the recipe, then figure out how to tailor it to your own tastes.
Shop often, shop hard, and spend for the best stuff available - logic dictates that you can make delicious food only with delicious ingredients.
Some things you know about, you know what the ingredients are - maybe not all of them. But it's up to you to put in the amount. It's up to the director to nag you until you get it right.
Simple ingredients prepared in a simple way - that's the best way to take your everyday cooking to a higher level.
Make each product the best it can be. Focus on form and materials. What we don't include is as important as what we do include.
In a company, you buy thousands of things. Every item you buy has its own footprint.
Once you have a product that you are happy with, you the need to centralize things to continue growth.
To have a basic ingredient that can be prepared a million different ways is a beautiful thing.
