<p>Most web startups are created by multiple founders, as creating a successful business from scratch is so hard that it helps to have someone to blame when things go wrong.</p>
<p>Or is that someone to share the load?  I&#8217;m not sure, I can never remember.</p>
<p>If you are running a startup chances are you have at least one other co-founder.  Often a developer will team up with a &#8220;business guy&#8221; in order to maximise the chances of success, with each bringing a different set of skills and experience to the relationship.</p>
<p>These differences include entirely different ways of communicating.  You say tomato&#8230;</p>
