Some key takeaways from Kenzie’s experience:
While W-2 employees are more expensive to hire than contractors, there is a cost benefit to having another higher level person on your team to increase your capacity and therefore your revenue and profit.
Implementing some form of the Profit First method is super effective for having a strong grasp on your business finances. Being able to see where every single dollar is going is crucial for making investment decisions in your business.
Make investments in your business. Invest in courses, people, and books that you can learn from to get to the next level in your business. If there are things that aren’t sustainable or possible to DIY, it’s totally worth it to outsource those things to a professional.
