Many people get to a point where they don't know how to scale their business. It's something many entrepreneurs fear. That the day will finally come when they can't handle everything they need to do with the hours they have in a day.

 

You see, if your business ever gets stagnant and stops growing it can't thrive. Not only that but it has the very real possibility of dying out all together.

 

When that time comes what will you do? How will your business grow?

 

Today we speak to Mark Gerlecz of Nothern Gulf Media and talk about the best (and probably most fearful) way of growing your business. Hiring an employee.

 

Mark goes through what he does on selecting a new hire and some great advice on what to look for in that person that you are entrusting your business with.

 

Plan up front. Set your goals. Decide what you're looking for and why you need a new hire.

 

Figure out what type of person you are looking for and plan on how to find that person and ways to compensate them. What’s going to be enticing for them?

 

Don’t hire someone just because they are good or creative. What specifically does your business need? Right those points down and don’t settle for anything less than that.

 

Tune into today's podcast to hear Mark's entrepreneurial story and all the advice he has on scaling your business, one employee at a time.
