If you're losing sleep or missing sales, it might be time to get help. Your business might be secretly begging you to hire, but are you ignoring the signs? So in today's Maggie's moment, I wanna talk about five red flags you can't afford to miss as to, especially when you're already asking yourself, when is the right time to hire help?
Sign number one, your cashflow is hurting because you are too busy to invoice clients. You've done the work, close the deals, but those invoices are sitting in your drafts delaying payments and putting unnecessary pressure on your business sign.
Number two, you're turning away your dream clients or making them wait too long and they move on. If ideal clients are ready to pay your prices and work with you, but you have to say no or put them on an endless hold, that's a red flag that you need support sign
Number three. You are juggling multiple opportunities and do you know that even if one lands, you won't be able to deliver what you promised without help? If your pipeline is stuck, but you are secretly dreading the moment it all comes through. Hiring support is key to keeping your reputation and your sanity intact.
Sign number four. You keep telling yourself you don't have time to market or sell in your business. You're skipping sales development, networking, or meetings hiding behind admin tasks and client delivery. If marketing and sales are falling off your radar, it's a clear signal. You need help to free up your time for growth.
Sign number five. You are working past your normal hours, not just occasionally, but nonstop. If you're missing dinner, skipping workouts, or letting work into your or letting work, eat into your family life and personal health. That's a big warning sign. When your business starts costing you your wellbeing, it's time to get support.
And here's the thing, hiring isn't just about getting more done.
It's about protecting your energy, your reputation, and your ability to grow. If you recognize even one of those signs, consider it your permission slip to start looking for help. And if that resonated, book a complimentary consultation with me through the link in the show notes, and let's talk about how to scale with more freedom and less overwhelm.
You've got this.
