Episode notes
Define The Real Outcome
- Most founders never define the real outcome they want from the business.
- Without that outcome you risk becoming overworked, underpaid, and shackled to the company.
Prepare Before Hiring During A Windfall
- When sudden work floods arrive, pause and prepare before hiring to avoid training gaps.
- Step back, identify the next right hire, and create training bandwidth before scaling headcount.
Leave Meat On The Bone
- Leave surplus profit in the business and be willing to take a short-term pay cut to fund hires.
- If you take everything out you can't afford the help needed to scale and you risk a death spiral.
