Who Should Be Your First Hire?

from Freelance to Founder · host Millo

Marcus is crushing it as a solo paid ads consultant, but every time he tries to bring on help, his margins vanish. Is his offer strong enough to actually support a team, or is he hiring the wrong kind of person for the job? Preston and Jason Fishman, CEO of Digital Niche Agency, break down why your first hire shouldn't just be a copy of you, how to know if your pricing can carry a team, and what it really takes to turn solo income into scalable agency profit.
