Outsource sooner rather than later
Do you know how to delegate tasks? Do you know when to outsource work? I try to delegate before I get desperate. If I wait too long to outsource then I end up having to hire anyone with a pulse. Learn this lesson from me, when you outsource sooner rather than later it will save you time and money in the long run. Think about how your time is best spent. As an entrepreneur, your time may be best spent creating strategy and vision rather than working on the implementation of tasks. A competent VA can help you with copywriting, social media, email, and graphics creation. How have you outsourced work?
