Reality: every group of founders is different.

There are no set of rules all startups should follow. There are however guidelines that ought to be considered, and discussions that absolutely need to be had.

If you believe in the concept, believe in the team, and believe it will be successful, don't sacrifice all of that due to not getting an extra 5% you believe is deserved.

Find what works for your team and build something incredible. Remember you likely are not capable of doing this on your own.
