Do you have more clients than you have time? Have a great team but aren't sure how how you can transition your clients into working with them? Shelli Warren, Chief People Officer of BizChix and host of Stacking Your Team, joins Natalie to share some insight into this challenge.
What are some of the signs that you might need to hire someone on your team to work with your clients? Feeling OVERWHELMED is a big indicator that you have more opportunity than capacity!
Natalie and Shelli dive into some strong feelings you may encounter in this situation: Guilt about not meeting clients' expectations. Limiting beliefs. Letting go of control and trusting someone else. Pro Tip: Natalie felt the same in her business!
So what are some steps you can take to ease the transition? It really comes down to messaging, putting the word out there about your new team member, and being excited about having them on the team. Natalie and Shelli also discuss the numbers aspect of having a new "billable" team member, and Shelli has a special tool to get over some of your stumbling blocks!
