The title says it all, really.
When you start your business, you’re in survival mode, and you do everything yourself simply because you have no other options. You might recruit friends and family as free or cheap labor, for a while, if you’re lucky, but basically you are the aforementioned solopreneur.
You started your business because you wanted to [core]. But of course you can’t just do that all the time. You know it’s not practical. You have to do all kinds of paperwork, sales and marketing, budgeting time and money, maybe some networking, perhaps hiring and firing or inventory… Yep, I just bored you. You think about that stuff enough without having to read it here too.
I don’t know what you delegated first, but it freed you up to spend more time doing [core]. There’s only one of you. Time you spend working on your taxes, for example, is time you’re not spending doing [core].
There are things you can delegate to employees, and other things that just don’t involve enough work to hire somebody. So you outsource.
Time you spend doing [crap] is time you don’t spend doing [core], time you spend stressing, time you spend away from stuff other than your business that you also enjoy doing. Why do that to yourself?
And guess what? The solopreneur isn’t a myth. The solopreneur who always flies solo is a myth.
