# CHAPTER 10: SPEED IS THE NEW CURRENCY

In a Zero Headcount company, the OODA Loop (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act) is instant.

While my competitors are scheduling a Zoom call to discuss a meeting to plan a project, I have already launched it.

### IMAGINED SCENARIO: THE TREND JACK

A viral meme takes over the internet at 10:00 AM. A traditional company calls their agency. The agency briefs a creative. Legal reviews it. They post a joke two weeks later. It's cringe.

The Zero Headcount founder sees the meme at 10:00 AM. By 10:15 AM, the AI has designed the merch, written the ad copy, and launched the Facebook ads. By 10:30 AM, sales are flowing.
