• Excellent
• Don’t need manager (babysitter)

• Pitch about it (Competitions, job interviews)
• Talk about it (Events, chat, Facebook)
• Build your vision at all cost, show A+ people that you’re fighting for that vision.
• Don’t wait until you have everything needed, just do it!

• Marketing: do seeding, setup Facebook ads to get people go to your site
• Sales: call people to sell your product, no excuse!
• Have a specialist do the interview for you

How to keep your employee?

How to keep your employee? - Part 2
• 1-on-1 meeting: ask your team for feedback, suggestions about product, company workflow or environment
• This is how you know someone has potential or will quit soon
