If your business can’t run without you, even for a week, you’re not alone.
We speak to business owners every day who feel like they’re carrying the whole thing on their back.
And most of the time, it’s not because they want to…
It’s because they don’t trust the team to run without them.
Why?
Because they’ve hired people who:
- Talked a good game but didn’t deliver
- Needed constant hand-holding
- Lacked initiative, ownership, or follow-through
- Quiet-quit the moment they were unsupervised
And when someone finally did step up, they left after a short time because they were burnt out doing all the work.
So you hold on.. and turn to “Hope”
You don’t let go of the wrong people because:
- It’s hard to find replacements
- You’ve been burned before
- You’re exhausted
- And somewhere along the line, you started believing…
“Maybe this is just how it is.”
But it’s not.
You’re NOT the problem. Your Hiring System is.
We worked with a business owner who ran a 70-person company.
He told us:
“I was in everything. I didn’t trust the team. And it was because I’d hired people who looked good on paper, but didn’t produce.”
After years of struggling, he finally switched to a system that measured performance before hiring.
He started looking for responsibility and results, not just personality, their experience or industry knowledge.
He stopped hiring “maybe” people and started building a team he could trust.
“Now I’m not the bottleneck. I’m out of the day-to-day, and I know the team has it handled.”
