Recently we have raised an investment round of $2M that will allow us to strengthen our core team and set up headquarters in London. As a new exciting journey is in front of us, it is time for some reflection on our hard times and what we should remember while continuing our expansion.
Today, I’ll be sharing some practical tips on how to be technically and organizationally prepared for rapid growth by setting up the necessary processes in a startup. Rapid growth is something that I sincerely believe every project will attain sooner or later. This article is based on the experience of my team, having survived a rapid growth between April 2020 and April 2021, where we went from zero users to 100 million per month. During this period of time, we had learned a lot, and we’re continuing to successfully grow even today. As of writing this article, our user base comprises over 150 million users.
