One of the biggest things to recognize first is like, what do you actually need? And sitting down and getting raw and real, like what is it you're trying to accomplish in your business or in your personal life, whatever that is, what are those things? Then you have to put them into buckets and figure out, well, what kind of a skill set is it? So an easy example is,

We get people every day, every single day, every single day, it's insane, that continue to ask us, can I have somebody who does, let's say on the marketing front, who's a graphic designer, who can build me a website, who can run my Facebook ads, and then I want them to onboard my clients.

I'm like, oh, okay, so you're going to have somebody who's like a developer who's going to be probably low on the kind of communicative interpersonal right skill set. They're going to be very low on that profile. And then you want somebody to do onboarding who's going to be client facing, who's probably going to be quite a bit more communicative, right?

But then you also want them to be creative, but at the same time technical, right?

but at the same time strategic and you're asking for all of these spectrums all in one human and I would like you to go find that person in the US find out what that might cost you if it exists and then realize that it's impossible and come back so we always say look find your core find your core skill set we don't want Generalists.

We don't want a bunch of mediocre people who can do like five things okay. We want somebody who can do one or two things really well. And then from there you can bring on another person because you have cost leverage when it comes to overseas hiring and things like that. There's cost leverage. And so that would be one of the first things I would say is get raw and real with what you actually need.

So turn it back on you. We always want to just like keep like throw stuff off our plate. But what is it? And then what is that going to give you or your business? What's the output you're actually going to get? And if that isn't going to move the needle in a positive direction, meaning it might give me as the entrepreneur more time to focus on dollar productive activities.

Okay, that's a really good thing if somebody gave me that freedom. Okay, great. Now, what else am I looking at in front of me that's causing me not to be dollar productive? Let's get that off my plate. That's another person. So that's where I would start.
