Most founders are so obsessed with growth, they forget to ask: Can we even handle it?

In this snapshot, you’ll hear how Nik Thakorlal of LeadsHook built a business that grew without ads, paused new signups to protect performance, and designed tools that turn cold leads into qualified conversations, without burning his backend to the ground. 

This one’s a wake-up call for founders chasing growth without infrastructure.


You’ll discover:

  • Why scaling too fast can quietly sabotage your customer experience (and how to prevent it)
  • The power of growing through referrals before turning on the ad machine
  • What bottlenecks in your business really look like, and why you won’t see them until it’s too late
  • A smarter, smoother approach to cold outreach that builds trust before the first call
  • How to build a lead gen engine that doubles as an audience builder without blowing your budget


More leads won’t save a shaky system. This conversation shows you how to build one that’s rock-solid before you invite the flood.
