Q&A while away.
Yes, this week we've got a question from Gustav, and Gustav asks, how do I make a senior tech hire?
This is a really important question because if you make the wrong tech hire, especially a senior tech hire, it's not only going to slow down your business, it might cost you your business. It might sink your entire business. We made a hire in our tech days when we're building Webinar Ninja that cost us over half a million dollars, and I share that story in our full episode. So if you want the full episode, you want to learn How to Make Senior Hires, and specifically a tech hire, then comment the word CTO or the letters CTO down below in the comments, and I'll send you in the DMs the full episode.
