Slowing Down

There comes a point where the wheel doesn't go any faster despite the addition of new sales hamsters.

So it's time to start taking hamsters off and reduce sales costs which is most likely what is going to happen.

Quarterly growth was at 21.5% not 28% because in Q4 there was deferred revenue of 15-20mil that was "pinned" on problems with one of the company's suppliers. It is now obvious that it was more than just that.

Pure appears to becoming opportunity constrained with very little help from other products.
