Hiring can be an extremely nerve-wrecking decision –
- What are they going to actually do?
- Can you trust them with your business?
- How much do you have to pay them?
But hiring is something that as a business owner is inevitable. Whether it’s just a virtual assistant, or you’re hiring a project manager, you’ll want to make the right hires for YOUR business.
I suggest entrepreneurs look at what stage they’re in so you can hire the right person for right now.
STAGE ONE –
Start Up: Defined by the new {and the lack of profit}. This is where ideas are born and the early times when you’re building a product or a client list for your services.
STAGE TWO –
Grow Up: You’ve created a profit on your own and you realize you can maximize this profit with the help of others.
STAGE THREE –
Scale Up: You’ve built strong profits and have hit your max capacity {or you may even want to cut back at your work}. At this point, you’re trying to scale your business income upwards completely outside of your own workload. This is where real teams are a must because there is a strong hindrance.
Within every stage, you have to ask one question when it comes to hiring:
How does this affect the revenue?
In a Startup, hiring someone to clean your house so you can grow your client list, impacts the revenue.
In a Grow Up, hiring a part-time sales manager can allow you to work on the big picture strategy of the company and its products and services while continuing growth upwards.
In a Scale Up, hiring a team for customer support, may mean significant retention of revenue, which allows you to compound new revenue.
So choose which stage you’re in.
