This is a short excerpt from a Jason M. Lemkin YouTube video advising startups on setting clear expectations for new hires. The speaker recommends defining objective, binary metrics for the first 30 and 60 days to judge fit, using a subjective "gut" check alongside those metrics (especially by day 60), and notes that in founder-led sales you may know much sooner (the speaker cites ~14 days) and face hiring limitations without a senior sales leader.
