At first, for 5 years, after you have sown the seed you see nothing, other than a tiny shoot, poking its head up from the ground.
"Growing like Bamboo" will become the new buzzword. Companies will start saying "Tomorrow we launch, and we better be growing like bamboo." People will get even more depressed that their app or SAAS isn't having a meteoric launch while they quickly try to fix bugs.
Everybody will think back to this article and forget that line - that the bamboo plant took years to prepare and arrange resources before launching. It can't be done overnight.
