Adding a new employee should move the business forward—not drain profit.

This episode starts with a simple but powerful question a contractor asked: _”How much more work do I actually need to do if I hire another person?”

The answer isn’t guesswork, and it isn’t based on hope.

The clarity comes from looking at hiring decisions through clear financial targets.

It isn’t just about payroll. It’s about understanding how staffing decisions connect directly to gross profit, overhead, and the bottom line. It’s actually quite simple, and in this episode, I walk you through the exact steps!

This episode walks through a practical way to think about growing your team while maintaining profit, so decisions feel grounded and clear.
