Building a team is a make or break task for a business owner.
And you can't do it without the answers to these 7 crucial hiring & team-building questions (I get them all the time).
Make it a priority to internalize them.
QUESTION 1: How do I develop a competitive compensation package that will attract top talent?
ANSWER: You're hiring abroad. It means you're not paying NEAR what you would in your home country.
So pay someone an amazing wage for THEIR country.
It won't break the bank for you but will allow you to attract the highest-quality candidates.
As with most things in life, you get what you pay for.
Genuinely if you can't afford to pay an overseas employee a great salary for their country you have to ask if you should hire.
