To PLG, or not to PLG? There’s lots of writing about Product Led Growth (PLG). What is it exactly, what are the benefits, and how to get it right.

That might be right for them. It's not right for me. I finally understood why I write differently. I think of each iteration as a prototype , not a draft. That means I need to assess the prototype as I proceed, until I'm ready to put the prototype out for larger review or publication.
