At age 25, Aaron Patzer was working 75 hours per week, and frustrated with the additional hours necessary to manage his personal finances using Money or Quicken. So he created and launched Mint.com. He doubted himself occasionally - after all, he was attacking Microsoft and Intuit with no business experience, no leadership experience, and no money.
Patzer was scared. He'd seen most startups fail, many with the same excuse: "I didn't have the right talent." Patzer had never hired anyone before, and Topgrading gave him the roadmap to follow.
"If I hadn’t achieved 90%, if I mis-hired even one more person, Mint.com would have failed, gone out of business."
