Notes:

Jonathan came over and we did a multi-hour consulting visit. Steve was on the whole time. Alan popped in and out, as he was travelling and going in and out of connectivity. Brandon took a bunch of notes and has them on his local file. The file name is called business_consulting_with_epic_enterprises.docx. Here is a small overview:

- Lots of talk about who is doing what

- We talked about friction, confusion, and under performance and how those things become the norm without a governing entity of sorts

- Overcorrecting and how that can hurt the bigger picture

- Lots of talk about a concept called "Heroism" and how it relates to actions and future growth. Not that it is all bad, but it does have its place and time.

- Strategic delegation - huge key

- Lots of talk on scope creep and helping to curve and/or control that where possible.

- Lots of talk about sales and what that means

- Cascading some of our vision and trajectory out a year or two... where does that put us? Are we scalable in the right spots? etc.

- History, were have we been and how did that lead us to where we are? Fun discussions.

- Recruiting the talent and people that we need to make it happen.

- We may need to shed some weight and virtually lop off some branches of the tree. It will help us focus more.

- Core vs custom - code and development

- Business verticals (full on industry specific stuff) vs functions and features (more generic or general)

- For some of our developers, we may need to cut off some of their access to help it flow through certain paths and processes. This is for us internally.
