As a technical founder, should I bring in a business co-founder? I think the article is pretty good. I'd want someone who is:
- Can sell without BSing.
- Knows how to get in touch with important people
- Good at pitching to investors
- Real personable and good at communicating with customers
- Can write well
- Has an eye for UX
- Has enough technical knowledge to communicate technical issues with customers
- Understands startups
A non-technical co-founder needs to have skills. They just aren't technical. I think the term non-technical co-founder is misleading because it defines someone but what they can't do. I'd rather say sale founder or biz-dev founder.
