Ehsan's Growth Commentary
Most Logistics founders get distracted from Freemium Model. My recommendation: build repeatable systems before hiring specialists. The companies reaching $10M ARR through Freemium Model all share this pattern.
With 200-500 people and $15-50M budget, focus Freemium Model efforts on the single highest-ROI activity. Do not spread thin across multiple sub-channels. Validate one approach before adding another.
