"The biggest fuck up I see builders make is IGNORING the data thats right in front of them. When things aren't working they start scanning the internet for someone elses playbook to copy. Some new channel. Some new growth hack. COPYING is good in the beginning because you need reps & momentum. But once you're in the game it's no longer about copying its about ADAPTING. Your own data is usually screaming at you: [--]. Theres one feature people keep using. [--]. One type of customer who sticks around. [--]. One distro channel that quietly converts. Those are the signals. Adapt to them even if they aren't"
