The take away from this… plan and think how things in your business can change geometrically. If you only use linear forecasts, you will be surprised. If you plan that your forecasts will “turn the corner” and go viral, you will be prepared and not playing catch-up, slack jawed, with watery, wide eyes.

The hard part is “when.” Exponential growth does follow a pretty linear path until it does “turn the corner.”
