A short, practical segment advising editors who want to scale into business owners. The speaker argues editors must decide between remaining a technician or stepping back to hire other editors of comparable skill, delegate work, and focus on client acquisition and business growth.
I'm an editor, and I'm trying to run a business. Yeah. So because you are the technician. Right. So you're a editor. If you want to be a business owner, you need to find other editors who are just as good as you. So then you can delegate that, and then you can focus on getting more clients and building more building more of a client base to then pay those editors. Right. And so I think that's another thing, is a lot of people want to be the technician, but you kind of have to make a decision in the beginning, like, do I want to only be the one doing this thing, or do I want to step take a step back, maybe, and start hiring and releasing control so other people can start stepping in and doing that for me? You know, that's true.
