In my previous post, How to hire your first employees and what to expect…, I talked about some of the steps you might need to put in place before you hire that person, who you should hire and what to expect from them.
As I spoke at AWE I had a lot of questions about who this Operations person was. So I thought I’d expand on the subject a little more.

As I don’t have a lot of time to sit and write out long blog posts I thought I’d share some of my Skype group chat logs. I still spend hours talking in groups on Skype and there’s some really good stuff.

Curious what I’m going to talk about? I’ve been building an ecommerce funnel in the Golf space using Clickfunnels, Shopify, Stripe, Shipstation, Golden Egg & and a few other tools.
We’ve done $400k in sales in the last 30 days.
And were at $0, 30 days ago.
Going to share that Journey and how I did it. Look forward to seeing you there.
