“If you’re not embarrassed by the first version of your product, you’ve launched too late.” Reid Hoffman, a co-founder of LinkedIn, posted this line on March 29, 2017. The same day he published an essay with the title “If There Aren’t Any Typos In This Essay, We Launched Too Late!”
He did not say it only once. The author Eric Ries wrote that Hoffman “often says” it.
