What we learned shipping eight brands in twelve months
A small team. Eight Series A clients. Twelve months. The process tightness that made it possible — and the things that broke.
Stop hiring agencies. Hire studios.
The structural difference between a fifty-person agency and a six-person studio. Why one of them is a much better deal for early-stage companies.
