How to Buy Back Your Time w/ Chris Do | Ep 457
Every service business hits the same wall: finite units of time and energy. Chris Do’s fix is not working harder, it is moving units of time off his own plate to someone less expensive, starting with the work that needs no taste. Filing receipts, categorizing expenses, production. Judgment and taste stay with him until the person he hired can make his decisions for him. He walks through the hire that earned him a three month sabbatical, why he stopped trusting resumes and name brand credentials, and the failed hire who came from a company of hundreds and could not function in a team of five. If you’ve been putting off a first hire, or a first firing, this one’s for you.
