Get the Help You Need to Grow Your Business

As a business coach, I often see entrepreneurs struggling with the same challenge: not enough time. This morning, I had a conversation with one of my clients about her next steps, and her biggest obstacle was exactly that—time management.

She runs a business that requires her to be front-facing almost every day, teaching classes Monday through Saturday. That leaves her little to no time to work on the back-end of her business, and as a result, her growth is stalling. This is a common challenge that many small business owners face. They try to do everything themselves, but eventually, they hit a ceiling. The good news? There’s a solution. And it starts with getting the right help.

Why You Need Support to Scale Your Business

When you’re wearing all the hats in your business, you will eventually reach a point where you can’t grow further without assistance. Many entrepreneurs believe that they have to do it all, but that mindset often leads to burnout, stagnation, and missed opportunities. Hiring a virtual assistant (VA) or another type of support staff can make all the difference in your ability to scale.

For my client, I suggested bringing in a virtual assistant for just a few hours per week to handle essential tasks. VAs are incredibly flexible and can take on a wide range of responsibilities beyond administrative work. They can help with social media management, email marketing, customer service, content creation, and even business operations. By hiring the right support, she can finally move beyond just social media marketing and expand her reach through email lists, YouTube, website optimization, and strategic outreach.

Another key point we discussed was creating a clear job description before hiring. This means writing down exactly what tasks the assistant will handle, what responsibilities she will keep, and what level of access the VA will need. The clearer the job description, the smoother the hiring process will be. A business coach can help you identify which tasks to delegate so you can focus on what you do best—growing your business.

Overcoming the Fear of Hiring Help

One of the biggest objections I hear from small business owners is, “I can’t afford to hire help.” But here’s what I’ve learned from personal experience: the right support will pay for itself.

When I first hired a virtual assistant, I was managing everything on my own and making about $3,000 per month. Within three months of bringing on a VA, my business revenue jumped to $10,000 per month. Why? Because I finally had time to focus on revenue-generating activities while my assistant handled the tasks that were holding me back.

Here’s what happens when you bring on the right support:

• You can focus on client acquisition and sales rather than administrative tasks.

• Your business operations run more smoothly, preventing leads from slipping through the cracks.

• You gain more visibility by being able to expand to multiple marketing channels beyond social media.

• You reduce stress and increase productivity, allowing you to serve your clients at a higher level.

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or stagnant in your business, it’s time to seriously consider getting help. A virtual assistant, business manager, or operations specialist could be exactly what you need to take your business to the next level.

Start small—hire someone for just a few hours a week. Have clear conversations about expectations, tasks, and compensation. Don’t assume you can’t afford it; instead, explore different options and negotiate terms that work for your budget.

Your business is meant to grow and evolve, and you don’t have to do it alone. Getting the right support can transform your business, increase your revenue, and create the freedom you’ve been craving.
