You know, a lot of startups get so caught up in scaling quickly that they forget about sustainable growth. But what if we approached scaling a little differently like a Private Equity (PE) firm does? * PE firms are all about making sure their companies are profitable before they scale. I think startups should focus on this too (don’t grow just for the sake of growth, make sure your model is solid first) * They are all about maximizing margins. Startups can do the same by streamlining their operations, making sure every dollar and minute counts before expanding * PE firms often grow by acquiring businesses. Startups should consider doing the same - whether it’s talent, tech, or smaller companies to boost their growth * Before making big moves, PE firms dig deep into the data, analyze the risks, and then decide. Startups can learn from that. Don’t scale without checking the risks and market conditions first To know more follow 👇🏻 https://www.linkedin.com/company/minus-one-to-ten/

Yeah startups should take a page from Private Equity’s playbook like focus on profitability, optimize margins, and grow strategically instead of blindly chasing scale.
