One of the most exciting stages of a new company (besides getting your first customer, and making your first dollar) is growing the team. Its an opportunity to find like-minded individuals who will share the journey with you and hopefully double-down on the passion and drive required to scale up.

Remember that you are likely to spend more time with your team than you will with your family and friends! Get it right from the start and you have an opportunity to create magic. However, making mistakes can be costly, so taking your time will pay back in dividends.
