“We have to scale and scale quickly”

Securing funding in the current market condition is incredibly difficult. You have a great product you believe can be the next unicorn and now have funding to go grow your business.

Who is your first hire? The VP of Sales

You are looking for a hungry successful sales person who is willing to take a risk on joining your company and help your vision come to life. With risk comes reward so there will be equity offered to this person with no guarantee of results. There is money allocated to this hire but you simply can’t afford to pay for the person who you really need for this role. You need someone who has done it before, has the right connections and a history of success.
