I have noticed a lot of solopreneurs take proud in doing everything themselves and do not want to hire and expand. Yes, I get it. I once had a lot of employees and it is stressfull with too much responsibility and issues. But, you can have 1 or 2 people. or 5. You don't need to have 10 people, or 100 or 1000. With 1 person you can get 150% more done if you structure it well. Why? That one person can specialize. If you wanna talk about this just find me on my blog :)

But ... even if you have just 1 or 2 people, you have to manage them. You need to have regular meetings to discuss what's done, what's to be done, you have to plan work for them. Large part of why I'm a solopreneur is because I do not want to manage or be managed. It would be awesome to find someone who just magically does great work without needing any attention. Just brief monthly summaries of high quality contributions, better than I could have done. But I'm not sure how to find someone like that, and I also don't think I could afford them ;-)

  Of course you need to manage and it might not be the most fun thing. Same here. But if you have one person, and you spend 15 minutes a day guiding them and giving them tasks, then they have 7-8 hours to do productive work. And finding the right people can be hard, but when you finally find the right one it is worth it. If you wanna talk about it find a time https://martinbaun.com/book https://martinbaun.com/book
