Description
Many lactation consultants are used to working solo, and it can be hard to surrender certain aspects of your private practice to others. But if you feel like you’re spending too much time on tasks that take you away from the clinical work you love, it may be time to bring on people who can share the workload.In this episode, Annie and Leah discuss when to recognize when you need help and where you can hire help in your business.“When you’re pushing and trying to do everything yourself, there will be long-term health consequences that will cost you money down the road.” In this episode, we will cover:Realizing that time is just as finite as money helps you see that when you have more time for the things you want to do you might actually make more moneyWriting down your weekly and monthly tasks outside of your IBCLC responsibilities and assess what tasks might be good to hire outThese tasks are likely things that someone else is more passionate about or proficient inYou can hire out work for your personal or business life: billing, scheduling, clinical assistance, taxes, cleaning, laundry, school pickups, childcare, elder care, etc.It could be just as good for you to commit to brushing up on your proficiencies and then “hiring yourself” to do those extra tasksNot being afraid to tweak things until everything is working the way you want it to Download our Interview Questions Swipe File Like this episode?
