Episode description
Contrary to popular belief, you don't need to have a cofounder to start a company. But, that may work for or against you if you're a business cofounder, depending on whether or not you have the technical chops (or lead on your side) to manage a development team.
After two previous startups, Melissa was sick of (not doing a good job) managing engineers and thought she could start eWebinar by hiring a dev shop to build their v1 before outsourcing to a team in Vietnam.
That experience was a disaster, but it led her to her now cofounder and CTO, David, who's also her life partner.
Melissa shares her perspective on what a great founding team looks like and how to go about convincing people to join you before there's even a product.
