Nonetheless—I want to very thorough and make sure we get to know each other much more.
What questions should we be asking each other? What topics should we be broaching? How do we get to deeply know each other in as short of a time as possible?
The best way to learn this is by hearing about what y'all did or wish you did.
I have some ideas. First of all:
* Would you like to be a cofounder or just a service provider?
If yes, then I would ask Jason Lemkin's two questions:
* Are you willing to do this for the next 7–10 years? * And are you willing to go for 24 months until we have any real traction at all?
Then I think Mark Zuckerberg spending MONTHS vetting Sheryl Sandberg. He particularly wanted someone who wasn't afraid of people better than them. Possible question
* Who is better than you? Would you recruit them?
More ideas:
* What is your learning style? * Are you doing it for the likes, the mission, or the money? How do you rank these? * How would you manage a team? What would your weekly meeting structure look like?
Would love to get even more ideas from y'all! Thanks!
I have more cash than others on my founding team. I've already been putting more of it in than the rest of the team. What's the fair / standard way of handling this situation so that the team continues to congeal? I'm pretty confident that we have a smash hit on our hands. Is there a fair way of doing this long term and short term? Thanks!
Thanks :)
