I am interested in developing ai solutions I have customers lined for the product concept I am working, customers are willing to be design partners and pay. Not LOI but I have worked with them in the past and they are willing to convert , in fact they are eager to. Okay main question, what is the best way to scale my team I don’t have cofounders , don’t feel like going arnd dating for it , but I can’t build and market at the same time. So looking for advise what’s worked for you? Given the $ secured is not in the millions and just a few hundred thousands I am thinking of best ways to scale team. Any advice / admonishments welcome
