I don’t think it is important to think of any of that on early stages.
All of those are, to me, the same type of distraction as deciding the color of the Maserati you will buy once you get rich with your startup. More introspective for sure, but still a distraction.
I feel that I am perfectly fine making this decisions when the time arrives. Not only that, but it is totally unreal to expect that my answer to those questions now when my startup is generating almost no revenue will have any influence on the real action that I will do when there is a ton of money on the table and the stakes actually matter.
These seem to be real questions for late stage founders.
- supernova87a 6y agoYou may be surprised, you are making decisions that tap these questions, even if your team is only 3 people.
- soneca 6y agoOk, rereading I must rectify that my disagreement is only with some of your questions. I think the distractions are thinking about: handing over the lead and walking away from money. The others I still think they will be a real dilemma in later stages, but I agree that early decisions are already reflecting some of those decisions.
