The First Hires Advisor

Advise me on the first hires for this early venture.

The venture and its needs: [DESCRIBE]
What I'm good/bad at: [DESCRIBE]
Budget and stage: [DESCRIBE]

Provide:
1. The roles that would most relieve the binding constraint on the
   business
2. Whether to hire, contract, or keep doing it myself for now
3. What to look for in early hires (versatility, ownership, comfort with
   chaos)
4. The hire I'll be tempted to make that I should wait on
5. How to attract good people to a risky early venture without much cash

Focus the first hires on the constraint that's actually limiting growth,
not on building an org chart.
