Should I expand or fix what I have first?
Depends on the constraint. If the founder is the constraint, expansion makes it worse. If the constraint is market or capital, the next move is the fix.
The home playbook will not survive the next move. Not a tool stack. Not a coach. Someone who has built this across six jurisdictions and stayed in the room until the decision closed.

Expansion does not break on the spreadsheet. It breaks on the operation, on the founder calendar, and on the assumptions the home playbook never had to test.
Stan has sequenced expansion decisions in private companies between $5M and $500M in revenue, in jurisdictions where the rules, the banks, and the labor model do not match. AI sized before the spend, not after.
