I've started to come to the same conclusion. After having just bought out my co-founder because he couldn't commit to the same extent as I have, I have gone back to look for a new technical "co-founder". But now I'm thinking it might just suit me better to hunker down, get stuff done and iterate the business a few pegs. That might give me enough traction to then decide to hire what's missing. I agree that surrounding yourself with good, responsive, thoughtful, and challenging mentors is a suitable alternative to a co-founder, but of course, they're not in the trenches with you, so there's no way they could truly have the same level of stress or have the same skin-in-the-game as you do. Maybe that's a plus, tho. As you can see I am torn -- stay a single founder or add to the founding team? |
