Gist from the speaker
Identify the market. The exact market and not high level.
Expand into that market or try to get some product market fit.
Solve one problem for which Customer will pay and keep paying.
Do not scale unless ready for scale. Scale can happen on tech side as well as on Sales side. Sales is the most Important.
Transform idea, product market fit, company into something else/ similar along the way. Success depends on how efficiently this is done.
However, do not loose track of your core customer base.
