Self Storage Investing The Keys to Finding Solid Team Members for Your Business with Glenn & Amber Schworm
They say “if you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together”, and that couldn’t be more true when you’re an entrepreneur. Doing things alone can only get you so far and you have to be willing to hire people to help you get further!
Today on the show, we have Glenn and Amber Schworm to talk about what it is like to hire and fire people, and what you need to do to find the right ones for the right positions.
Glenn and Amber Schworm have over 25 years of experience in starting, building, and growing successful real estate businesses. What started as a way to get out of debt eventually grew and that one flip turned into three, seven, twenty, and now several hundreds throughout the country.
Listen to the episode to learn more about finding people, handling the hiring process, and the benefits of taking it slow!
