https://www.instagram.com/laurenlappin_

In this week's episode Lauren discusses the Pros and Cons on Working with a Team vs Working Solo. How you need to Choose Your Hard. And the freedom having a team can provide (as long as it's what you want from your business, and your life).

When You Have a Team (PROS)

  • Today's Question: "Is it hard having a big team?" (00:00)
  • Keep Working on Your Marketing (02:00)
  • Keep Developing Your Systems and Processors (03:20)
  • Managing the Team takes Time, Focus and a Dedication to Communication (05:45)
  • More Time, Flexibility, and Income (10:20)

When You Have a Team (CONS)

  • Managing People isn't everyone's Cup of Tea (11:40)
  • Being Responsible for other People's Careers can be Tough (12:20).

When You're Working Solo.

  • You will be working IN your Salon the majority of your working hours (14:15)
  • You need to be marketing on a continuous basis, as your business only creates revenue when you yourself are working on clients (14:50)
  • (Cleaning) plus Client follow up, scheduling and/or rescheduling is all up to you. And you may find yourself doing this after a long day of physical work in your Salon (so you need to keep on top of Cleaning, Client Outreach and Communication so you don't get behind and appear unprofessional) (15:50)
  • Stock, Uniforms, Branding and More (17:00)

You Need to Choose Your Hard. (17:20)
