What if you could hire someone new, even if only for a few hours a week… when you were too busy? What might that look like?

If you’re like many established entrepreneurs, you might want to hire someone new, but that project gets put on the back burner. You might think you need to have SOP’s in place, or that the hiring and training process will be too long.

In this episode, we’re diving into the hidden fears that might be keeping you stuck, and I’ll share some practical strategies to make hiring much simpler!

If you’re like a lot of the entrepreneurs in my community, you may have already achieved a number of goals in your business (when you actually take the time to sit down and acknowledge them!) and you’re working towards your next one- maybe it’s scaling your current program, maybe you’ve tried a number of different things and it’s getting THE offer you want to be known for, or maybe it’s tweaking it so it feels more in alignment with you.

If that’s the case for you, I’m super excited for you to listen to this episode! I think you and I can both agree that what got you here, won’t get you there. In this episode I’ll be sharing the 3 main roadblocks I see that stop us from achieving our next big vision, but I’ve also brought on a guest expert to dive deep into the MINDSET blocks getting in the way as well.

In this episode, I want to show you how to create a new system or structure in your business when you don’t have the time to do it.

Here’s the challenge. Overstretched entrepreneurs may know they need more structure and systems in their business to keep up with day to day demands- like adding a new project management tool, hiring someone new or setting up a new process- but it sounds too time consuming, so they put it off.

Has that ever happened to you?

The issue with this is that they often end up focusing on the “fun” stuff- more sales, more clients, more revenue… But this won’t solve the problem, it will only MAGNIFY it.

Entrepreneurs with freedom of time know that if they create the structure now, it will pay dividends later and that it doesn’t have to be as time consuming as we might think.

In today’s episode, we’ll dive into how to make setting up your next system faster and easier, with 5 easy to implement ideas to get you started!
