Profit by Design 268: Maximizing Profitability: The Art of Strategic Hiring
“What role should I be hiring for next?” is a common question we hear from business owners who are at capacity and know they need to hire, but they are confused and don’t know which role they should hire for next with considerations about cash flow, profitability, and how the hiree will support the sweet spot of your business. In today’s show, I’ll give some parameters for determining your next hire to ensure the best fit for the team member AND the role. Join us to learn more!
Another common question is about hiring entry-level team members, supervisors, or both. I’ll walk you through these decisions and show how your current hiring decisions will impact your profit six months from now. We can’t overlook profit on the Profit by Design podcast!
