Why Two Founders For A Startup Makes Sense
(By Dharmesh Shah)

A single founder startup becomes too lonely and isolated. Some can pull it off (particularly if they hire some great people early on). If you’re unable to find/recruit another co-founder, people may wonder about you, your sales ability or your ability to attract/recruit a great time in the future. Co-founders (as long as they’re great) are an exceptionally good way to demonstrate to the world (investors, future employees, etc.) that you can be worked with and have the ability to convince people to do irrational things (which turns out to be an important characteristic).
Rare are the people that have the genetic make-up to be really, really good at all of the “core” stuff that the startup will require in the early days. At a minimum, you need one technology co-founder and one sales, distribution “find the customer” co-founder. The rest (marketing, finance, ops and other stuff) can be divided up based on who likes to do what. There’s simply too much work to do in the early days of most startups for a single person to do it all.
