Have you struggled with Hiring? Wouldn’t be great to get someone who could bring you more sales, or help you get more off your plate? According to research by Glassdoor, you are 5 times more likely to make a bad hire without a proven process or system for hiring. Bradley Smart estimates the cost of a bad hire between 7 and 24 times of someone’s annual earnings. Factor that a bad hire could cost you between $40k and over $225K, it’s no wonder many business owners shy away from hiring. It’s not your fault and you don’t have to leave it to chance.
