Since teaming up with @jonbuda on @transistorfm I've been able to move way faster, and I'm expending less energy than I have in the past.
Jon takes care of the things that used to make me spin my wheels.

There are solo software founders (
@ajlkn,@levelsio,@marckohlbrugge), who are exceptional. (They've also chosen projects that work well for solo founders.) If you have the skillset, timing, and energy to be a solopreneur; go for it!Pokaż ten wątek -
Many of the companies we look up to have multiple founders: - Google (Larry and Sergey) - Basecamp (Jason Fried and DHH) - Fathom (
@pjrvs &@JackEllis) - MailChimp (Ben Chestnut, Dan Kurzius, Mark Armstrong) - Atlassian (Mike Cannon-Brookes, Scott Farquhar) That's no accident!Pokaż ten wątek -
A good co-founder makes you move faster. Sure, you'll have to give up equity. But the right partnership will grow your business beyond anything you could have done on your own. You'll move faster, but you won't be working as hard.

Granted, if you would rather hire an employee, that's a good option too. It's less risky, in the sense that you're not "getting married" to someone for a long time. For bootstrappers, it can be harder, because you'll need to have a way of paying someone when you're cash poor.

If you're bootstrapping a software company, and you'd rather be a solopreneur than have a co-founder, then getting funding from someone like
@earnestcapital,@tinyseedfund, or@indievc might be a good option to help you hire someone instead.Pokaż ten wątek -
