Ever worry if the time and money that you put into hiring will really pay off? In today's episode, we are diving deep into the world of hiring and team management for business growth. I am joined by seasoned entrepreneur Hallie Sherman to unpack the critical importance of setting Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for all team members, no matter their roles.

Hallie shares her journey from recognizing the need to hire help while managing a full-time job to executing strategic hires—starting with an editor, then a product photographer, and eventually a ghostwriter. Together, we explore the complexities of the hiring process, from determining tasks worth delegating based on effective hourly rates to ensuring hired help aligns with your long-term business vision.
