How to Hire the Right People for Your Company

When you have recurring revenue with a low churn rate, your month to month revenue ends up being very predictable. You can really confidently kind of bring your first employee on because you know almost certainly you'll be able to pay them indefinitely. One of the classic problems is that people, for whatever reason when you're hiring someone, you have this bias towards like a face-to-face conversation. So I switched to using Slack and Asana as the tools by which I actually hire and interview people. It turns out to be a much better predictor of who you're going to be able to collaborate well with.
