To CEO Or Not To CEO?
- mynameishere 19y agoSeems a little flakey. The overuse of bold characters for apparently unimportant phrases (viz, "we are artists") doesn't help. Most CEOs will either want a 6-figure salary or a huge chunk of equity, and will expect at least one layer of management below them. These are the things Ronen should think about, and not whether a CEO will be "that third partner that will support our personal needs". No, that's a valet.
- Readmore 19y agoI personally think it's good that the authors recognize they need to bring in someone else to 'handle the hustle and bustle of starting a business.' However, from reading the article I get the impression that they don't want to put in the long hours and make the sacrifices that are required to be successful startup founders. If I were them I would take this article down before a potential investor reads it and realizes that they 'won't sacrifice their personal lives' to take care of their business.
- s_baar 19y agoAgreed. The most investors would be comfortable with would be to acknowledge that they might not have the expertise to run a large business and say that they'd be OK with a CEO replacement down the road. Right now they are coming off as you say they are.
