Melissa asks: "I'm told to hire a virtual assistant, but their paycheck comes straight out of mine. How do I know when my business is truly ready?"

In this episode of Fix My Business, Scott Todd reveals why the fear of hiring is actually masking a bigger problem: you're undervaluing your time. Learn the exact framework to calculate whether hiring will grow or shrink your income, plus how to "dip your toe in" without committing to full-time help.

You'll discover the time-value audit system that shows exactly which tasks to delegate first, how to estimate the true cost vs. opportunity, and alternative pay-for-performance models that remove the risk. If you're stuck doing $15/hour work while leaving $100/hour opportunities on the table, this episode will change how you think about leverage forever.
