“When you hire up, you're able to put all of the different pieces into place so that your hires can get the results for your business. That's leadership.”
- Shelagh Cummins
Does this sound familiar? “I don't have the time to go and find someone to help me,” or, “I don't have the money to be able to pay someone to help me.” Before you hit your solopreneur limit, you need to understand what it means to shift from being a doer, to being a leader.
But here’s the thing – the right hire will actually save you more time, AND make you more money. All you have to do is give up a little bit of control.
Easier said than done, right?
Today I’m sharing with you all of the mindset shifts that I have worked through with my coaching clients to go from holding onto all of the control in your business, to hiring and trusting the right people to do what they do best, so that you have the time and space in your business to do what you do best – get results for your clients.
