Assistants and more

Finished polishing and shaping the Assistants presentation, today I do the final edit to get it down to ninety minutes.  I love that topic.  Putting good help in place to do the things you don’t do that make you more money, makes sense.  Putting good people in place to do the things you don’t take time to do or have time to do is the key to continuous growth.
Sure hiring is hard.  The biggest mistake Agents make is not thinking about what they want in the person they are going to hire.  They just hire who is available, who is recommended or who shows up, often a major mistake. 
What do you want the person to do?  What skills do they need for that?  What experience would be best for that?  What behavior style (DISC) would be best suited for that?  What questions could you ask to ensure that the person has the talent that will be needed?
You run a multi million dollar business, no kidding.  A less skilled, inexperienced, Assistant has no business being your main Assistant, even if it is for only ten hours a week.
Don’t be casual or careless.  Hire strong people and your business, your income, your clients, your loved ones, and you will all benefit from it.
