And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: One of the toughest challenges in growing a small business, as mentioned by Jess Cutting, is building and managing a team effectively. Jess emphasized the importance of hiring the right people and trusting her gut instincts when it comes to team members. She discussed the mistake of hiring out of desperation rather than carefully considering whether a potential team member aligns with the business's values and culture. Jess Cutting's favorite business book is "The E Myth" by Michael E. Gerber. She found this book particularly impactful because it challenged her perspective on business ownership and management. "The E Myth" discusses the importance of understanding the roles of an entrepreneur, a manager, and a technician in a business, and how each role contributes to the success of the enterprise.  Jess Cutting recommended "Manager Tools" as a valuable podcast for professional development. She found the content of this podcast helpful in addressing various business-related questions and challenges. "Manager Tools" covers a range of topics related to management and business operations, providing practical advice and insights for listeners. Jess Cutting recommended the DISC model as a valuable tool to help grow a small business. The DISC model is a behavioral assessment tool that categorizes individuals into four main personality types: Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness.  On day one of starting out, Jess Cutting advises herself to "get a fucking business." She emphasizes the importance of not only being skilled in the technical aspects of the business but also in understanding how to manage and run it effectively. Jess reflects on her experience and highlights the significance of educating oneself on business management, setting up systems, and delegating tasks to build a sustainable business from the start.
