🔷 ensuring the product-market fit

🔷financing the operations and achieving a stable cash flow

🔷 hiring the right team

🔷 legal and regulatory hurdles

🔷 creating a strong brand name

🔷 standing out from competitors

🔷 maintaining contacts with key customers and suppliers

🔷 scaling at the right pace

🔷 deciding whether to scale up organically or through M&A

🔷 maintaining culture and values during growth
