Description

The hardest part of building a business is not marketing, offers, or sales. It’s the people and the processes that have to operate together to make your business work. To have the power to scale you have to find people who can effectively run the parts of your business that need to be run without you. Do this well, and there are literally no limits to how big you can grow. Hire the wrong people, and watch your business crumble. This episode is a live training from an ELITE event held in Nashville where we invite some of our best clients to hang out with us and build their businesses. In this clip, Chris and Taylor share the common mistakes that people (including them) make as they build team.Here are some highlights from this episode:The cost of hiring without offloading the burden (6:03)Hiring too fast, firing too slow (7:15)The cost of hiring the wrong person (8:12)Why you need to give new hires room to make mistakes (9:44)It’s ok to fail, but not fail at the same thing over and over… and over (10:23)Why you have to have clarity in what you need before you hire (10:31) How to utilize the concept of stop-loss for new hires (11:03)The importance of setting priorities each week/how that affects the hiring process (13:45)How to avoid over-engineering job descriptions (15:54)Creating the profile of your ideal hire (18:50)Want “Insider Access” to our Six-Figure per month Consulting Business?
