Mandi Ellefson helps consultancy owners free-up 40 extra hours per month and use that time to keep growing their business.
Her clients transform into what she calls a “Hands-Off CEO.” A Hands-Off CEO leverages what they’ve already built to grow income, create more ease, and cut the chaos in the business. Their business can generate profits for weeks or months at a time– even when the owner is not there.
Create the business you want so your team can run the business without you
Grow the business as an asset so you can sell it
Branding yourself is a good step in the right direction
Be willing to help your people grow
Make the interview like an audition
Screen people with detailed instructions in the application process
Business owners have similar challenges
- They think about sales all wrong
- Growth is fine but do you have the capacity to hit your goals?
Systems alone will not grow the business
You must have the people as well
People are not machines
Learn how to motivate your team
Your best employees tend to come from your network
Flex Jobs is a good site to find staff
You as the founder/CEO is always the bottleneck
Step away from your company for a week in a "stress test"
Hire for fit rather than skill and train them
Share profits not equity
Take the longer term view to bring on and mold your replacement
