If you’re new here, this is DAY 15 of a 27 DAY series where you peek over my shoulder and learn how to lay out a remote service business just like my company that just hit $20 million in sales.
Quick thread where I walk you through what we use for our phone systems to make this a completely remote business.
Short and sweet today: DAY 2 OF HIRING
All previous threads are here:
Backstory: From Zero to $20 million in sales
Day 1- The Industries that Work
Day 2- Choosing Your City and Business Model
Day 3- How To Choose Your Domain
Day 4- Website and elements
Day 5- Logo and focus
Day 6- Copywriting
Day 7- Customer Service
Day 8- Pricing
Day 9- Online Booking
Day 10- E-COMMERCE ELEMENTS
Day 11- BUSINESS FORMATION
Day 12- PHONE SYSTEM
Day 13- MARKETING CHANNELS
Day 14- HIRING DAY 1
So yesterday we went through Day 1 on how we find service providers.
Since this is an important part of building these businesses, I thought we would run it back and do a day 2.
Today we’ll go through a few more examples of how we find teams to show you this is actually super doable.
So one spot that we like to always take a look at is Facebook Groups.
MOMS GROUPS
Do a search for moms group in your city and you'll likely find multiple results like so...

You can then pop in and ask if if anyone knows a good home cleaner. Chances are you'll get multiple results and then you can message the cleaner.
Here's two actual examples of us doing it...

AND

So I wanted to share this so folks realize that this stuff is doable and it's really nothing to overthink.
There are hundreds of folks out there that are ready and willing to work with you.
I'll show you a few more spots to find them...
Another dope spot that folks are sometimes cautious about...
GOOD OLE CRAIGSLIST
We like to post in the gigs section and even reach out to folks that have posted in there offering their services..
Then you can start to collect folks in a spreadsheet.
Here's one you can use.

And if you're like me and you interview remotely we use tools like Zoom and online signature tools like Hellosign to sign contracts, welcome docs etc.
There's a free tier. https://sign.dropbox.com/features/sign-and-fill-pdf-document
So I'll slow down here and say, don't get overwhelmed.
We do use tools in building these companies because our goal is to have things be as seamless as possible when we hit volume.
And as usual I'll share everything with you that I can.
So we're into the second half of this, but more fun stuff to come.
Short and sweet for today but I'll dig in deeper tomorrow, long post on the way then!
Whenever you're ready, there are 5 ways I can help you:
1. Sweaty Startup Operating System: Join 2,000+ students in my flagship course: Learn to build a lean, profitable, local service business. This is the system I used to quit my job and grow from zero to $20 million in sales and has generated over $1 billion in sales for our community. Get 10 years of online business expertise, proven methods, and actionable strategies across in-depth lessons and includes live WEEKLY calls.
2. Live 27 Day Bootcamp: Join 30 other entrepreneurs every month in a live DAILY class as we walk you through how to build a business in real time. At the end of 27 days you're ready for launch. Build a profitable real-world business live. This comprehensive program will teach you the system I used to grow from 0 to 100K+ customers, be invited to the White House and earn $20M+ in sales.
3. https://www.justinwelsh.me/content-osBook a Call With Rohan: As an entrepreneur with over $20 million in online sales I've seen pretty much everything. I've built services companies, software companies (had 2 exits), subscription box companies, and more. Join me for a chat.
