Good questions. I particularly like the 10x price one. That might mean 10x revenue or 10% of the customer base for the same revenue.


This applies to the salaries as well :) What do I need to do to get 10x salary this/next year?


This is a really good one. Could also apply the concept to the whole business in keeping with the pattern, i.e. "What if we _had_ to 10x revenue in the next 12 months, no matter the cost or impact on existing customers?"

This might be related to "what if we had to 10x prices," but of course revenue = price X N, so it brings up the N question, which is fantastic to do.

I'll consider how I might be able to add this to the article without too much overlap with "10x prices".


Yeah, or maybe it's "both." :-)

Which, if your goal is profitability, might be a great thing.
