In our previous episode 63 “Why entrepreneurs don’t hire people” we were looking at the reasons why sole-entrepreneurs are so reluctant to hire and we provided a checklist that can be used as a guideline to understand when SHOULD be the moment to start hiring, in any business for that matter.
As the world has evolved and communication has become more digitalised, so has evolved the world of “getting help” and needing additional ‘hands on deck’ for your entrepreneurship journey. The burdens and obligations of an employee contract are made easy by the use of commercial contracts and subcontracting people.
Solo-entrepreneurs need to understand that hiring somebody means they are delegating, they are getting help accomplishing some tasks, they are not looking for a replacement of themselves. This episode is here to shed some light on When and Why hiring is a productive move for the business.
It’s very difficult to delegate the core of your vision, but it wouldn’t be the worse if someone else can cut your invoices while you are working on that vision, right? :)
