Call me old-fashioned, but I don't think getting and renovating a big office is a good use of time and money when you're extremely pre-PMF. Spending money is not success. Making money is. This was our office when we were half the size and 10x the revenue as this team. Our main perk was all-you-can-drink horse electrolytes (3rd pic). Rent was $6k. I also wouldn't delude myself into thinking that the fancy office is a recruiting tool. You don't want people joining you because of your sauna and surfboards. You want those who do because of your mission, your team, your traction. Having a fancy office gives everyone the false impression that you've "made it." My intention is the exact opposite: we haven't made it, we can die any moment, and we better work our asses off (not go surfing of sauna'ing) if we want to increase our odds of survival.
