Building Before They Were Ready: The Ray Kroc Rule of Starting Early

Most founders wait for perfection — but progress rewards action. In this episode of Decisions That Built a Business, we explore the bold decision to launch before feeling ready, and why it worked.

If you’re waiting to feel “ready,” this episode will show why starting imperfectly can be the smartest move you’ll ever make.
