0205. Before You Scale: Designing Workflows That Set Teams Up for Success with David Hirschfeld

Send us a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/tex...) In this episode, we sit down with David Hirschfeld, 35-year software veteran and founder of Tekyz, to talk about why designing workflows before you start building is critical for sustainable growth. We explore how the speed of modern tools and AI can create a dangerous illusion of progress, causing teams to skip planning and discovery. David challenges the common “build while flying” mindset and explains why taking time to think first actually speeds you up. You’ll also hear his contrarian, but highly practical, "Launch First" approach, where sales and marketing happen before building. It’s a powerful method for validating product-market fit early, avoiding wasted development cycles, and moving fast without flying blind. Whether you’re launching a startup, building internal platforms, or scaling R&D, this episode will reshape how you approach planning, execution, and risk.
