38. Founder Stories: How I Built IVY, the Social University
Learning notes from this episode:
Beri’s first hire was a designer, not a developer. He found her through via a recommendation. This is the best way to hire product talent.

Beri has worked with various outsourced developers: again, another pattern we see from our other guests.
Fundraising should not be an aim. It can help to build a business, but it is not the only way to do so. Beri suggests asking yourself "How can I get 10 customers with the minimum amount of investment?"
