If you’re a business owner, you’ll know all about hard work, putting in the hours, and wearing several ‘hats’ at once. You’ll also know that along with the hard work comes rewards and a sense of achievement.
But what if your work-life balance is out of line, and work is consuming too much of your time and headspace? It may also be that you are working some of the time on tasks that are just not your forte.
If you feel you have no choice because recruiting an extra person just isn’t for you – it costs money to employ people after all, and you have to commit to that expenditure every month, along with all of the responsibilities that come with being an employer. Rather than soldier on doing far more than perhaps you’d originally intended, there is another option.
Freelance support at a senior level
It’s possible to enlist the services of a senior business person to work alongside you to help you achieve your ambitions – both for your business, and for your personal life too – freeing up time to allow you to be more than a business owner running a business full time.
Such a person may be hard to find – do you research business consultant? (Sounds expensive). What about a Business Advisor – what does an advisor do other than tell you what to do? Finding someone that can join your business and hit the ground running, someone that doesn’t need managing, but can be trusted to get on with their role, what would you call that person?
A doer perhaps? They are hard to find if you do a search on LinkedIn! Here at Insider Marketing, it’s what we do.
I am passionate about working with clients to help their business achieve its true potential without sacrificing life outside of work. If you need that support, and want to have a chat, please do get in touch.
Take a look at some of our case studies for a flavour of the work we do, and if you’d like to talk to one of my clients to find out more about their experience, just let me know.
I look forward to hearing from you.
