Are you overwhelmed by the idea of adding people to your team? I mean, you KNOW you need the help, but where should you even start in filling the role?!?

Maybe you’re seriously wrestling with the idea of whether to hire someone locally versus filling the position with a freelance virtual assistant.

There are obvious (and not so obvious) pros and cons to both, but which ones REALLY matter and what will work best for you and your business?

What happens if you make a mistake and bring on the wrong person or their location in relation to you really does matter more than you thought!

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING TO THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN:

• What I’ve gleaned from my own experience of hiring for my team and reap the benefits of my early mistakes
• The actual pros and cons of hiring someone that lives close to you (we’re talking within a 10-ish mile radius here)
• The obvious and less obvious benefits and drawbacks of hiring a freelance virtual assistant — both in your country and overseas
• How to determine the best choice for YOUR business and the specific role you currently need filled
