Hiring Momentum: An Underrated Component of Startup Success

There’s an old adage about if you want to see what matters, just follow the money. But with startups, capital is a lagging indicator of success. If you want to really figure out the future, you follow the talent. Where do the smartest people want to work? What problems are interesting them? What companies are they joining?

From an investment perspective, the ability to recruit talent is a key sign of promising founders. Since we invest in seed stage companies, there’s often only a small team (or no team beyond the founders). But there are signs to look for, such as (A) do their former coworkers want to work with them again and (B) asking about their hiring plan. And don’t fall back on the crutch that hiring is hard because you didn’t go to Stanford or work at Facebook. Shyp made a key hire before their seed round had even closed and has built an incredible team without founders having the valley pedigree. In fact, I’d say to a company, the top performing founders we’ve backed rarely talking about “hiring” as their greatest challenge. Sure it still takes effort (some people suggest CEO should spend 50% of their time recruiting) but these startups have nailed the tri feta of:

1. Product vision and work that resonates

2. Core team + culture that others want to be a part of

3. Equity that’s perceived to have upside

Combine those three and you have Hiring Momentum, an underrated and IMO underdiscussed component of startup success and scaling. I experienced this at breakouts like YouTube where the early engineering team were largely referral based hires and observed it from further out at a number of other start ups

Harsh reality is, if you have trouble hiring the problem isn’t with the market, it’s with you. Do you lack candidates or not seeing any referrals from your current employees? Are you getting good folks at top of funnel but losing them during process? Are you making offers but failing to convert or pry them loose from their current employer? Each of these conditions suggest different challenges to be unpacked and understood. Satya and I spend time with founders on sourcing, interview process and helping to close but ultimately if you can’t articulate 1, 2, and 3 above, no one amazing is going to join your startup. Sorry, there are too many other opportunities out there to compromise.

The One Word That Will Make You Rich

There is one word at work that arrives like a gift. It makes me feel happy and brings a jolt of joy to everyone who sees it in an email, IM, or text. I love reading this word more than any other -- it has always spoken to me more than “bonus,” “raise,” and even “promotion.” I bet you love it too. The reason I love this word is that it's written every day. It denotes team progress, and is free for everyone, anywhere to use at any time. It speaks to our sense of accomplishment -- both as individuals and a team. Before I share this special word, I want to tell you why it will make you rich. But let's be clear about what I think about wealth. Being rich is about achieving what you have dreamed of accomplishing. I tell that to our team at Aha! (which is a product roadmap software company) every day.

 For many though, being rich means having $1M in the bank or buying that fancy car that they have wanted since high school. But for others, wealth is defined by their community service, overcoming addiction, or finally earning the degree that they abandoned 20 years ago. I am not the only one who thinks broadly about the word rich. In a survey released last year, 90% of respondents said they believe that success is more about happiness than money or prestige. 60% of the same survey respondents said success means "loving what you do for a living"; just 20% said success is defined by monetary wealth. So, do you know the one word that will bring you treasure? The one word you can write that will make you rich is, “Done." You might be surprised, but stay with me so I can explain how powerful this little word is. The word "Done": Builds confidence The more often you complete a task, the more your confidence to achieve what's next grows. Writing "Done" to your colleague or boss who has asked for status on a task, means everything. It's similar to crossing items off a to-do list, but in a collaborative way. That sense of confidence allows you to take on new challenges and continue to grow. Pleases others Most colleagues don't like asking for help. But when they do, they probably really need something from you. You have an opportunity to thrill that person when you respond with "Done" as it means you completed their request.

This helps them get to "Done" too. Writing "Done" reminds everyone that they are part of a team, and that you have a key role. Highlights your value Getting work finished is energizing, and when you write the word "Done," it reinforces your contribution. It also enhances your reputation for being trustworthy, reliable, and dependable. Ultimately, our accomplishments are what satisfy our internal ambitions and are rewarded at work too. People who love and respect the word "Done" work hard and have deep reservoirs of stamina. They take great satisfaction from being productive and helping others along the way. They also happen to be the people who are rich. This is because they are driven by their talents to achieve greatness. Their hard work drives them to achieve their own goals and ensure their teams are terrific too. Do you agree that writing "Done" will make you rich?
