What this is

Move from doing everything yourself to running a small team. Learn when to hire, how to find good people and how to build simple systems so the business runs without you in every task.

You work through it at your own pace, lesson by lesson, applying each exercise to your own situation. It does not promise that a business will succeed or earn a particular amount; results depend on your market, your decisions and your effort.

What you will be able to do

  • Decide what to hire for first: employee, contractor or software
  • Write clear role descriptions and run structured interviews
  • Onboard and manage new team members
  • Document processes so work is repeatable
  • Set up simple tools for tasks, communication and tracking
