"I believe that management processes are a tax on organizational obesity." Fantastic metaphor.

it's a tax on organizational size and well spent taxes aren't a bad thing, in fact, they're a great thing

Exactly. Essentially, it's an investment into the future of the company and will increase the chances of maintaining your culture and productivity.

No, the million is the goal. They're at $150 now. Got you to click, though.

Yeah, I hope my click will add to their success and growth :) I also don't get how can they have 6 people working on this full time with no investment and marginal revenue.

It's a new company.

But they still need the 3000$ / month / person pocket money to burn.

It sounds like you're a startup in some sort of financial industry. Why do you even have company snapchat and instagram accounts? They can surely be nothing but distractions from your goal of actually doing financial stuff.

They're building an audience for a mass-market investment educational product.

Instagram and snapchat makes perfect sense here.

I am wondering this as well since in one of his previous posts he says he has no money. He seems to move really quickly, though, and it would be impressive if he got 5 people to work on this full time for (currently) free.

My 2 cents: - I don't like the logo, it looks like you just picked a font on google fonts - The whole brand identity seems completely disconnected from 'hardbacon'. It's a strong name, why have it then? - I don't get it, are you a content site for financial advice? With comparators? What's the business model, referrals?

Don't mean to be a dick, just trying to offer my sincere view. Good luck!
