What separates a product that scales from one that sinks? In this episode of Growth Mode, Tom and Jimmy break down The 8 Rules for Growth: the hard-won principles they use to build fast, stay lean, and create high-margin businesses that last.

We’re talking small teams, smart hires, and AI-first thinking. How to increase time-to-value and reduce friction. Why high margins aren’t optional, they’re a requirement. And what it actually takes to build products people want to talk about (and pay for).

Plus: what early employees must bring to the table, how to avoid the trap of “problem finders,” and what most agents get dead wrong about communication and onboarding.
