Feras Alhlou explains why founders should delegate and automate once their business gains traction. Doing everything yourself kills growth and your freedom. Build processes and hire support so you can actually scale.
People might be thinking, I don't know how to hire, or I can't find the right talent, or I can't afford to hire help. Here's the real question: can you afford to stay stuck? At one phase in the business, if you're bootstrapping, you don't have money to pay anyone else. I get it. But as you start to have some traction, as you get some deals, as you get some revenue, as you have some profitability, think of ways to outsource the headache. Successful founders, the best founders, they just don't do it all alone. They delegate, they automate, they build support, they build processes and systems, even if it's just 5 hours a week. Because freedom isn't found on doing everything yourself. It's found in building something that runs without you.
