How to Build a start team with no money for salaries

You need build a startup team with no money for salaries - how do you do that? When you can't pay salaries, you feature what you do have to offer: a compelling, exciting vision and an ownership opportunity that allows the team to benefit from the company's success. A compelling vision should include:

- A large market opportunity
- Why what you're doing is important
- A compelling customer need
- Don't just assume there is a need - validate the need through
customer discovery so you have customer stories to share

This channel is way underrated! Priceless incider knowledge. I hope more to-be-founders watch this.

Great video, thanks Steve. Could you clarify how much of the company one should make available to employees like this, and what the mechanics actually look like? People say 10% for employee share options, but over what period, how many employees, what vesting schedule etc
