This document discusses how working openly as part of the OpenERP community can help small businesses grow. It notes that for every 50 lines of code or comments contributed to the community, a contributor will receive at least one new lead. This lead will already be convinced of the contributor's expertise since they demonstrated it through their community contributions. The document encourages following OpenERP's example of having an open, dedicated community and warns that not participating in the community will make businesses "blind." It concludes that technically, OpenERP has grown significantly as evidenced by its increasing number of modules over time.
