Hello - exciting times. I would reconsider learning to do it all from scratch. The economic law of comparative advantage, I believe, also applies to people allocating their time. Pair up with 1-2 people who have complimentary skill sets so you can each bring your best to the table, motivate each other and drive toward your final outcome faster. Time is your enemy.

I’m a non technical cofounder and CEO of a 70-person SAAS company (that’s bootstrapped). We could not have gotten where we are with without the other cofounders (there were three) and me pretending I could do everything and doing nothing well. We each were responsible for doing a job the others hated.

Anyway just food for thought. Email me if you want to hop on a call.
