  • How can founders successfully turn their startup into a thriving corporate entity? The key lies in balancing growth with stability. As Tim Heath, founder of Yolo Group, explains, it’s crucial to introduce corporate policies and procedures at the right time—not so early that they hinder revenue generation, but not so late that they block scalable growth. 

    Founders should gradually step back from day-to-day operations, empowering a capable management team to foster a self-sustaining business. Bringing in a supervisory board can provide valuable industry insights and fresh perspectives, guiding the company towards long-term success even after the founder's involvement fades. While the transition requires courage, the reward is a resilient, sellable business that can thrive without the founder.
