Hiring Your First Staff Member – Start with an Executive Assistant
I know exactly how it feels to wear all the hats in your firm. I was answering emails, scheduling calls, managing clients, and trying to grow the business—all at once. It’s exhausting.
The first real shift came when I hired my Executive Assistant. At first, it was scary to let go, but here’s the truth:
- ✅ They took over my inbox and calendar so I could breathe again.
- ✅ They became my gatekeeper, protecting my time and focus.
- ✅ Eventually, I trusted them enough to tell ME what to do, so I stayed focused on CEO-level work.
Here’s what gave me peace of mind: I was making between $100–$150/hour, and I could pay my EA $20–$25/hour. That math made sense—I knew it would work.
👉 If you’re still doing everything, start thinking about the moment you can bring someone in. It doesn’t just free up time—it frees you to lead.
