First-time founders: stop underpaying for top talent.
Adrian Camara learned this the hard way while building Athennian. When you're hiring a VP of Sales and one candidate costs 40-50% more than another, your instinct is to save the money.
Adrian's take after raising $40M+ and scaling through COVID boom to tech winter:
