Quotes To Remember:

“After a hire, that’s where the real tests begin”

“As a business owner, hiring is an investment. It’s an investment of your money, your time, your energy, so when you make an investment into someone, you need to look for those red flags early”

“We’ve all worked with someone before who has a bad outlook on life….. that’s a cancer in your business, you don’t want that within 100 yards of your company”

“Almost all bad business relationships, come down to a break in communication. At a basic level, your workers need to speak the same language.”

“Providing things you can go back and reference, is incredibly important”

“You don’t own three companies by working inside 3 companies, it doesn’t work like that, you have to delegate.”

“If you waste your time, you’re not getting that back”
