Do structure your cap table so that it will be appealing to the VC's. (if vc funding/ipo is your goal)

Don't staff up before you really know you can fully utilize those people. I think there are many parts of any business that can be handled by outside help, like agencies or contractors. Keep your internal people working on the core technologies and core business.

Keep your workforce diverse. Too many of any of the following groups can lead to uneven communication: former co-workers, friends, family, college buddies, too many people from one recruiter or reference.

Don't say you'll build everything yourself. Keep in mind that for most goals you have 3 choices
--use existing technologies (off the shelf)
--partner with another company (pro services)
--go it alone
Take a few extra cycles to evaluate the pro's and con's of each approach. Prioritze the wheels that you wish to reinvent.
