Acknowledging the need for help is one thing but knowing what kind you need or where to find it is another. Do you hire a PA? Do you employ a bookkeeper? Do you employ a sales person? Or do you outsource to an agency or an accounting firm? First and foremost, though, comes the question: Can I afford it?


The role of an entrepreneur involves wearing many, many hats. Especially in the early days of launching a business there often just isn’t enough cash for you to hire help. You have to be the manager, accountant, salesman and HR department all in one.
