Alternatives to Hiring Full-Time Employees with Kronda Adair

Today, we are going to talk about hiring and I have to tell you that I am as surprised as the next person that this is the topic of today's episode because I am far from being an expert on this topic. That said, I do have some valuable insights to share with you that I’ve developed over the past nine month going from being a solopreneur to leading a team.

In this episode, I do some mythbusting of common advice you’ll hear from the ‘business gurus” and you’ll hear my approach to building a team of skilled professionals that are committed to seeing your business succeed.

If hiring a team feels like a river you can’t seem to cross, I’ve got some alternative routes and stepping stones for you that might just be the thing to get you to the other side.
