Start Up- Finding A Team Needing Advice

Hey everyone, recently I just created my llc. I’ve been solo developing the business for months. I’m at a point, where i’m looking to create a team for my company.

I’m currently in college so funds are extremely tight, majority of my pay will be commission based for now. With more promises to equity in other projects and so on. I can only make promises, but it also helps me filter for the most motivated individuals.

One of my problems, my company is almost all online. Having a small company that works primarily online, and being a small solo developer, is not a great mix. Cybersecurity is a huge worry I have, in general i’m focused on securing my business.

I recently made a small post to see if people would be interested in joining my team/company. I got an overwhelming amount of replies and DM’s, but in reality im worried about the risks of creating a remote team.

Majority of my systems are not finished yet for a team, i’m trying to secure the overall business first. Then i’m creating systems to allow them to use our api, and similar systems for security. I’m also trying to figure out how to structure some of the projects, so devs can help me work on those without risking my company.

Overall, i’ve struggled making these systems and finding people to trust. I think it would be a lot easier to create a small in person team, but majority of my friends are not interested until I can pay them/have my systems set up for them.

I honestly, suck at creating a remote team. This is my first time ever trying to work with other people remotely. I’ve never uploaded to github (i’m working on changing my habits), i’m usually really secluded off from the worry of exposing anything. So creating a team, it’s a huge jump for me.

What advice do you have? How would you make something like an app and structure your team? what do you use/websites to help you create these systems. Any advice helps, thank you all.
