Vibes officer is a must

Shajedul Karim · Answer

that's a big step. when business booms, expanding the team's crucial.

first 2-3 hires you’re probably looking at roles that directly support your core services or products.

maybe someone in sales, marketing, or customer support, depending on what you need most.

it's about filling gaps that let you and your cofounders focus on growth.
