I guess as a tech entrepreneur I would nurture relationships with people who are outside your skill set on the marketing and sales side or business development side. Relationships you know you can trust. As a technologist, it's very difficult to hire someone on the marketing and sales side because they're so different than technologists and you don't know who to trust. It takes about a year
to really understand whether the people who you are partnering with trust you and know they will rely upon you just as much as you know you will rely upon them.
