Many companies feel the pressure—whether from within, leadership, or the board—to do more, move faster, and cast a wider net. But as Lisa (Ramirez) Ames of Norwest Venture Partners shared on BluWave's Karma School of Business Podcast, the real key to success is mastery before expansion. ?? Prioritization is power. The best companies and marketing teams don’t chase every opportunity—they make tough decisions, focus on what matters most, and say "no" more than they say "yes." ?? Mastery creates momentum. Instead of spreading too thin, zero in on what you can truly excel at. Once you’ve mastered that, scaling becomes natural and sustainable.
