Welcome back to the Foot Traffic Podcast! “Big teams = big headaches”, I heard one of my clients say. Unfortunately, I knew she wasn’t going to like my response or my reaction to her opinion. I believe you if you have big headaches with anyone on your team, whether that’s 2 or 22, you’re at fault. A big team only leads to big headaches with poor management. When you have leaders in place, a team helps carry the weight of the business. My team is not a headache. What would give me a headache is if they all quit on me tomorrow. I need them as much as they need me. That’s what makes us a team. But not everyone is ready to add more employees or contractors right this second. Today’s episode we will cover: What you need to do BEFORE you ever consider bringing another person on to your team Red flags to watch out for so you or the rest of the team don’t burn out When to know if you should spend the money and invest in a new team member and how to justify the expense. There is a reason we call Foot Traffic the “Dream Team”. Each person has their own unique skill sets and brings value to the team in ways that one person can’t. Time to assess your workload and start asking “who, not how”.   Did you enjoy today’s episode?
