Iron Triangle
Features, Timeline, Budget
Ok, we didn't make this one but it's pretty critical to our business (really all business). If you want something done, you have to decide between the features, timeline, and budget. Some people say you only get to choose two. Really, you only get to choose one and hope for the second. If you want something cheap, there's no guarantee it'll be done well or fast. If you want something fast, expect to pay or have it done poorly. If you want it done right, it takes time and costs money. Choose what you want and remember what your goal is.
