One of the first things you’ll hear from experts about scaling your business is that you need a team. But where do you start? Who do you hire first? And how do you find the money to make it all worthwhile? More than any other area of scaling – building a team can bring on head trash and a lot of hesitation because the truth is that who you hire can have a great impact on how you grow your business.
On today’s Mindset First Podcast episode, I invited Rachel Mazza who is a marketer and Integrator who has helped grow her team from 3 to 23. She shares some of the ins and outs of growing a team and how you can avoid some of the mistakes people make when it comes to scaling this way.
I love this conversation with Rachel because she’s so real and shares both strategic and mindset tips to getting beyond your fears and growing a team that can take your business to the next level!
