You want an idea about what you can say. I know it sounds like a bad idea but here's specifically why its actually a great one. You want to sound crazy but you want to ask to be right.

The best ideas often look terrible at the beginning the truly good ideas, don't seem like they're worth stealing.

Share results (financial and key metrics) with the company every month.

You have to let your team get all the credit for all the good stuff that happens, and you take responsibility for the bad stuff.

Just put a little pin in your mind: when you cross 50 employees, there are a new set of HR rules that you have to comply with.

Investors will sort of like write the check and then, despite a lot of promises, don't usually do that much; sometimes they do.

You need to figure out what the 2 or 3 most important things are, and then just do those.
