Is this a newsletter for you? The topics we cover.
Why small independent companies are better than big:Â We challenge the "bigger is better" assumption and show the strategic advantages small businesses have in decision-making, adaptability, and resilience.
The four economies of small:Â We break down the concrete benefits of staying small: tangibility (better decisions through closeness to reality), accountability (ownership of outcomes), flexibility (versatility and rapid adaptation), and resilience (long-term survival through strategic limitation).
How to scale impact without chasing growth:Â We teach you the 7 strategies for scaling your positive impact that don't require getting bigger, including examples from companies like iFixit and Tony's Chocolonely who've proven you don't need to be a unicorn to change an industry.
Defining your company's edge and appropriate size:Â We guide you through the practical questions of how big is big enough to be profitable yet small enough to leverage your advantages, and how to protect those limits through ownership structure and balancing mechanisms.
