How A Company With Just 15 People Serves over 10,000 Customers

Building feels obvious when you have a problem. Wrong. Most founders build for themselves—not the market.

In this episode, Sweepbright’s founder and CIO Raphael Bochner reveals how microteams scale without hiring:

🔥 Validate before building. Ask 20 strangers: “Do you have this problem?” If <20% say yes, pivot. (90% of startups fail here.)

🔥 Automate before engineering. Typeform + Zapier → 100k+ daily actions. No code, no chaos.

🔥 Fix sales → support handoffs. Context lost = angry customers. Automate it before $1M revenue.

Why it works:

→ Reclaim 15+ hours/week (no new hires)

→ Turn tiny teams into unstoppable machines

→ Scale output without scaling meetings or burnout

If you’ve ever thought: “I’m drowning but can’t hire…” “Why does adding people create more chaos?”

This is your playbook.
