Keys to success:

  •  Hired a recruiter.
  • Hire your replacement/multipy yourself
  • Remove yourself from the deliverable 
  • Put it on paper

Scale vs growth: Scale is staffing to the right level at the right time. 

How can Amazon/eCom sellers get out of the daily grind and remove themselves from the business? Give a score of all tasks from 1-5, 5 is critical, 1 don't need to be there. How competent is the person that could replace you incrementally.

First step to make change is awareness. Your time should not be spent on immediate task delivery. Define the document.

What is an easy way that people can delegate tasks/understand how to delegate the right tasks to their team members? - Depends on the DNA of the busienss and people.
