Giving up control is one of the biggest challenges for most business owners. The second you even think about delegating a task or building your dream team, fear creeps in… 

What if my employees / subcontractors don’t do it as well as I do? Will they care about my clients as much as I do? What if they make a mistake? Am I even ready to bring on an employee? Where do I even start?

All of these concerns are fair and valid, but if you find yourself on the brink of burnout, according to our guest, it may be time to ask for help.

In this episode, we’re chatting with Grace Wimpy of Grace Emily Photography, a highly sought after motherhood photographer serving Atlanta, GA!

From the very beginning of her business, Grace wasn’t afraid to seek counsel from other business owners… And building her dream team of advisors & employees may be the very reason she was able to go from business idea to full time photographer in just a couple of years.

Through the experience she’s gained scaling her business over the past 4 years, Grace is sharing:

  • how she knew it was time to outsource, hire, & delegate tasks
  • what roles she created within her business for employees
  • how she recruited the right people to build her dream team
  • tools and strategies she uses to maintain excellent communication with her staff
  • the biggest lessons she learned from outsourcing & delegating
  • advice for fellow business owners about asking for help
