“When everybody loves the package, it’s probably going to fail. Never go ‘outside the box’ without first testing a small cell, and make sure an established winner carries the fundraising load. … But of course, don’t stop pushing the limits. You have to learn from your mistakes. And if you never bomb, you’re probably not pushing hard enough.”
