Is it better to scale fast and break things, or play it safe and grow steadily?

Depends on your market and funding. "Move fast, break things" works for some, but steady growth's safer for bootstrappers. Know your risk tolerance.

@simonas_kauzonas True. Some ideas do need quick execution but in most other cases, steady growth should work better.

My strategy has been go-fast, fix quickly and prepare for the risks. In shorts, it's a "Fail-Fast" model. Market always run faster than we do, so execute everything in "fast" mode.

@veeresh_devireddy Yeah. I'm a fan of fast execution and iteration as well.

Go fast at first, and slower later. At first, meaning until you find product-market fit.
