When you’re just starting your business, hiring experts can often seem a little scary – and expensive. Many online entrepreneurs believe the misconceptions and myths that they can do everything themselves in their business – from helping their clients to creating content and managing administrative tasks. But, what many entrepreneurs often fail to realize is that their time is valuable, and if they are focusing on too many tasks – or tasks they should delegate – then they are not giving themselves enough quality time to move their business forward.
In this episode I share how hiring experts can elevate your business and free up your time to focus on more important tasks that will move the needle. I explain the difference between a lean “core” team and an extended team and share my experience with building my lean and extended teams. I also share the mindset challenges I needed to overcome while investing in experts, how building a team not only impacts your growing business but also your local and global economy, and how to identify when it’s time to uplevel your team to help you reach your business goals.
