Interesting to contrast this with other start up wisdom, such as “ignore process until you have product market fit”. In any business with repeatable admin activities (payroll, fundraising, market research, taxes, accounts payable, onboarding) it seems important to streamline your processes so that you can make time to innovate and sell.
But perhaps this situation is unique to capital intensive slow moving industries like commercial real estate investment and development. I can see how software companies can get to revenue without processing hundreds of professional fee invoices and 1099s and paying filing fees for multiple entities. These activities are table stakes for real estate development.
