Highlights:
- “Growing a team and building a team is probably one of the most important things that you can do for freedom, as in sheer time. You don鈥檛 have to be thinking about all your work 24/7, but it also gives you the ability to grow your business and think about how you鈥檙e growing your business.”
- “From what I鈥檝e seen before, the mindset that someone probably has is ‘If I hire somebody, they鈥檙e not going to do as good a job as me. So I can鈥檛 hire them because I鈥檓 the best one at this job or role.’ I think a lot of people fall into this trap of ‘I鈥檓 the best one and no one else can do it.’ I tell people: if you can hire someone to do 90 percent as good of a job as you did, then you basically think about it as hey, you speed up 90 percent of your time to now do whatever you want. But at the same time, the person that you hired isn鈥檛 you. So you need to train them because if they do a bad job, it鈥檚 not their fault. It鈥檚 your fault.”
- “You have to have a great hiring process. Let鈥檚 say you want to hire someone from the Philippines. I do an Internet speed check. I鈥檓 going to make sure that the Internet works. I do a writing test. Any sort of wrong grammar, wrong text — I know they鈥檙e not going to write well, so let me not even waste my time. All this little stuff you can do to really help you filter candidates.”
