Back-office ops are any and all processes and activities that are NOT focused on product or customers but critical to your startup's existence.
Still confused?
Here are a few examples:
Startups drive change in this world.
Back office functions aren’t sexy or exciting, but they are crucial to avoid ticking time bombs that blow up later during a fundraise, or when you get scary notices from regulators, or just avoiding chaos when you begin scaling.
We’re founders and operators and we looked around for a community solution. Google doesn’t actually answer my question. Verticalized tools like Gusto, Rippling or Carta only do part of the job. Lawyers are sometimes an (expensive) solution for best practices, but sometimes an operational solution needs an operator.
