Great Post on Taking Smaller Bites (via Crashdev)
Posted on November 18th, 2007 in Business, Judy's Book |
Chris has just started blogging and he has a great post up on his blog about the importance of taking smaller bites when starting a company.
…one big takeaway was a collective resolve to build our next business by “taking smaller bites”, working toward a vision by executing more thoroughly around discrete building blocks of the idea.
I completely agree with this perspective. Even if you’ve got a grand vision, you have to execute like crazy in one small area. Once you matter a lot to a group of people, it becomes easier to reach out to more. Trying to matter to everyone at once is a tough game.
Great post Chris and welcome to blogging. I’m looking forward to reading more.

Hi Rahul,
Just saw this. I really like this philosophy and we are applying this for our start up as well but obviously we copied it straight from 37s small decisions- http://www.37signals.com/svn/archives2/make_tiny_decisions.php
Nik,
I think their approach makes a ton of sense. For us, living this lesson in real time was very eye-opening.
Good luck with the business!
Rahul
