First off, this is perfect.<p><pre><code>  Do you think that you would have taken a different approach if you could do it over again?
  Oh goodness yes.

To founders, if you don&#x27;t answer the question this way, you&#x27;re not pushing yourself&#x2F;your team enough. If everything is going perfectly right, be scared or get another job.<p>@patio11 [Unsolicited advice from a fellow founder]<p>&gt; All three of us were working as recruiters for it, but Thomas and Erin were also full-time on development for Jailbreak.<p>Have one person own recruiting, which I&#x27;m guessing is you. That is priority number 1, 2, and 3 for you no matter how little you know&#x2F;like it. It sounds like you learned this really well (we fucked it up initially as well — the dangers of all-technical co-founders.)<p>For other founders:<p>As an early startup, you have two goals:<p>1) Acquire users.<p>2) Build something users need.<p>You should always be doing something towards one of those two things. If you have more than one person in the company, there should be one clear owner for each. Set metrics that are just out of your reach. As J. Cole said, &quot;If you don&#x27;t aim too high, then you aim too low.&quot;<p>Do not stop doing either of those two things until either your sleep schedule is on fire (for goal 1) or your servers are on fire (for goal 2.)<p>Do not hire, talk to press, design a new logo, talk to investors, join a softball league, speak at conferences, or bring on a social media manager until shit is on fire. That&#x27;s what product-market fit feels like.<p>Unless you are building a lifestyle business, you do not have a successful company until your small team is on fire. Then fire yourself from positions (via hiring) to put out the fires.
