MenuI have the ability to build Identity Access Mgmt. Where can I hire someone to backup my projects?
If the project is done the potential on this is continuing residual income for both of us.

Can you give more detail about what you mean by backup your projects?
This question is super vague... I can tell you about backup software, and backup systems if you are just looking to backup your work so you don't lose it in a disaster.
I just am not sure that is what you mean seeing as you seem to want to share income with whomever helps you on this.
What do you mean by "backup my projects"? As a developer you'd usually have some kind of version control system in place (github.com/ or bitbucket.org/), which would also serve as a backup system. If you're looking for someone to keep an archive of your files, there are a number of public or private cloud providers that offer that service (carbonite, ironmountain, goodsync, etc.).
Backups are simple.
Dump your database into a file + create a compressed tarball of your database file + any code files.
Or, if you require hot sparing, run your system in an LXD container + do periodic rsyncs from container to a container on another machine. Then, say once a day, stop the production container + do another rsync to ensure all memory buffers are flushed (database is consistent), then restart production container.
You can also use database replication, so you only lose the last transaction if your production site goes down.
If you're running hot spares, if your production site goes down, you just change your IP to point to your spare + you're back online.

How would you go about asking for a potential employer to pay for travel expenses and take it off from your first check?
You don't. Research the company and hiring manager or would be manager/leader to such things like their needs, recent prior events (& whom else would have been there), near future company goals, products and find a place within that need structure where you would add material value. Then craft what is called a Speculative Application. Get yourself into a position in which travel might be an option as part of your roles.Humberto Valle Texas Real Estate Investor, Wholesaler, & Airbnb SuperhostHV

How to get past the fear of hiring full-time employees?
Growing up from 1+subs to a team like you're saying is a classic problem in consulting. The financial math is not in your favor until you get a consistent team. Here's an article of mine detailing the issues and also detailing solutions: http://blog.asmartbear.com/consulting-company-accounting.html Having said that, I would also say you're trying to do too many things at once with not enough resources, which means the chance of being successful with each one is diminished. For example, you could focus on consulting revenue so you can build up your bench, so that you truly can self-fund the development of a product without distraction. Or you could focus on product, investing time/money there with consulting only to pay for that, even using subs for that, until the revenue there gets to the point that it's scaling (which will be hard, as you can already see). Building a product or a successful consultancy is individually very hard -- most fail. So trying to do both at the same time means you'll almost certainly fail. Which is a shame, because that's "failure due to time-management / strategy" as opposed to actual market forces. i.e. something fixable! I hope some of this helps, although I agree with you that talking through the details would probably be more helpful. The specific details of your situation matter.Jason CohenJC

Are there any good and free resume collection software?
I'd recommend RecruiterBox as long as you can focus on filing one position at a time. It let's you accept up to 200 applicants for 1 position for free. http://recruiterbox.com/recruitment-software-pricing-with-free-signup/ Also, There are quite a few others out there most of which offer free 30 day trials or free access to their platforms with feature limits on them vs the company's paid offerings. Based on the way you phrased the question, this app should do the trick! Side note - if you're making use off Google apps - just create a form for submissions. It's always free.Tamarah BlackTB

What is the best way to evaluate a candidate for product manager?
Some of this is stage dependent and all of it is highly dependent on the team above the product manager. The simplest answer of course is to find PM's from companies who have had exemplary success where the Product Manager candidate either led prior success or was exposed to it in a meaningful way. A simple starting point is to ask them to give you examples of conflicting opinions on a feature and how they evaluated the conflicting opinions and made a decision and tracked the success or failure of that decision. AirBnb actually gives PM's homework as part of the interview process where they have to actually present a unique idea (from scratch) to the interviewing team. Happy to talk to you about best process based on your stage and existing team.Tom WilliamsTW

Does Phantom Equity for LLC makes sense ?
Thanks for asking this question, its a good one with little answers out there. Having been a phantom equity partner in a start-up myself, I would say phantom equity didn't give me the push to be all in as much as real equity would have. I never felt like a true partner. Reason being, the owner wasn't fully committing to me, so how could I with him. If you have the right potential partner who's quality and is going to come into your start up with all their time and heart, equity will pay off. A SARs based system works great for entry level employees that join early. Helps to justify the risk on their end. Good luck.Nate GunnNG
