Do you wonder what it is like to run a business with employees…and what that might entail? Today I take you behind closed doors and introduce you to some of the ladies who work with me. In Episode 90, Meet My Team Part 1, I interview Jamie McPheeters, Shannon Boyer and Kelli Marshall (Part 2 I will include the rest of my team). As they share how I found them and what they do for me – my hope is that you will find this helpful when you are ready to hire in your own business.
