Omar Zenhom argues founders who wait too long to hire get trapped doing non-strategic work instead of growing the business. Hire as soon as you can afford it, delegate the day-to-day labor, and build something that scales.
Waiting too long to hire can stunt the growth of your business and keep you stuck in tasks that don't move the needle. This is why I want you to make a hire as soon as possible, as soon as you can afford it. The whole point why you started a business is so you build an asset that works for you, that makes money for you, not you just grinding it out until you get old. In the beginning, at the start you are building the foundation, but eventually you need to start making some hires to start doing the work for you so that you eventually just make decisions and the day to day labor is done by a team of people that you've recruited.
