If your starting to think about taking your business to the next level, consider building a team rather than hiring employees. The employees that are already set in place is a great place to start and building foundation for your new team that you want.
Open Forum recently posted an article on building the team to help you run your business in it’s next stage. Your team definitely begins with you at the top of the totem pole obviously. You are the back bone to the whole operation of your business, the chief executive officer. Then comes your virtual assistants. These people are very key strong elements to your company, there are so many different tasks that they can tackle for you over the conveience of the internet.
Professional Strategists. You probably already have a working relationship with the three main people who will make up your professional advisory team: your tax advisor, insurance advisor, and legal advisor. Most women entrepreneurs have a CPA in place to do their personal and business taxes, an insurance agent in place for their car, home, life, and business insurance, and an attorney in place for their personal and business legalities.The next step to becoming an enterprising entrepreneur is to turn these business advisors into your business strategists. Instead of meeting with them once a year to get your taxes done, to review your policies, or when questions come up, meet with them more often.
What was the transition like for you when you built your first team?
