There are good arguments against some of these tips, too. For example, having your high-value founders doing menial tasks is a poor use of resources. There is a good argument for hiring an admin assistant with decent marketing coordination skills, etc. Most small teams I know who have done so say it was incredibly helpful at freeing them up for more important tasks.
We were a team of 2 programmers and then we hired someone (from our community) to run our Twitter and Facebook accounts. It provided a huge bump in engagement (and sales) plus freed us up to do more programming.
Getting people to share the burden with customer support, engagement, and outreach can be a huge help.
