"Can you quantify 'large'?" Sure. $10 to $50 million a year, looks like quote a real company endquote with (typically) an office, a small team, etc. (Naturally there are many above and below that range, but there are some big transitions in character at approx $1M and $10M.)

Do you think blogging/podcasting/etc slowed you down?

If I were to list ten reasons why my software companies were, as of sale, smaller than theirs are as of today, that would not be in the top ten. Phrased another way: I do not regret the amount of time I spent writing/etc, at all.

Whenever I go to
@MicroConf or@bosconference I meet people I've never heard of who don't blog, don't give presentations, don't have a "personal brand", yet are running software companies with revenue in the millions. -
Yes. Selection Bias leads many to overestimate the likelihood that personal brand correlates to success.
