Finding & keeping good help.

I was just sitting here thinking that when you are busy enough that you need to hire some help is that a good thing or a is it another headache that you don't need?
I want to make as much money as I possibly can and still remain reasonably sane so for me the only way to do that is to try to assemble a crew.

If you haven't done this before and are used to just being a one man show then you are going to be then you are going to be extremely frustrated. Because this is not as easy as it sounds.
If you are as concerned about quality as I am then your finding the right people to accomplish this is going to drive you nuts.

When your lucky to be able to find people that do a good job(maybe not as well as you would want but..) then you have to make sure that they being paid well so as to keep them or they will jump to someone else who will pay them more.

This is a delicate balance that you are constantly juggling. I am not apposed to hiring inexperienced help and teaching them but that can also slow your production down.
I currently have a crew of 4 that I employ(not full time) so I understand the work that has to be put into accomplishing this so I will be writing more on this subject as I think it is very important to anyone looking to expand and grow in this or any other business.
