Chapter 10 Speed Is the New Currency

imagined

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.

For the hook

A meme at 10 AM. The agency posts on Thursday. The solo founder posted at 10:15.

One line is enough. If Sacha takes it, the first line goes on the wall as you wrote it. The rest stays with him.

so Sacha can write back. Nothing else.

Unticked, the wall says “a founder” and the story stays with Sacha.

Nothing else is asked today.
