What It's About
It's time to grow ... but how do I find that critical hire?
Notes from Chris
Episode 2129
I’m always excited when someone in our community goes from side hustle to small business. That’s not always the goal, of course—people start income-generating projects for all sorts of reasons. Nevertheless, it’s definitely a big success when someone who wants to grow their business is able to move into hiring. Today a listener from Salt Lake City is ready to hire her first employee after growing her stationery brand slowly and steadily. What does she need to know?“Hi, this is Clarice from East Jordan, just outside of Salt Lake City in Utah. My stationery brand has grown a lot over the past year, and I'm ready to bring on someone else. I've done some small contracting through Upwork in the past and didn't have the greatest experience, but that may have had something to do with me since I wasn't entirely sure what I was looking for. Now, I know what I want: someone who's mostly full-time and has some key skills that I lack, but who's also willing to jump in anywhere. After all, right now it's just a business of one person, so there's not a lot of specialization going on. So … how do I find this person? Most people I know aren’t looking for work, or if they are, I don’t necessarily want to hire them. I look forward to your advice!”Listen to today's episode to learn more...
