Brand Fortress HQ: Amazon FBA Success Strategies

Ever wondered how to snag that perfect first-time hire or if agency outsourcing is the golden ticket? Matt and I unpack the complex world of hiring, sharing the gold we've mined from our experience with VA Philippines. From confronting hiring stigmas to honing the art of management, our latest episode is a treasure trove of insights for entrepreneurs looking to build a dream team that's agile and evolves with their business. Discover the value of adaptability and creative thinking in candidates, and why sometimes, the best hire isn't about a flawless beginning, but about finding those gems who can shine in various facets of your company.
As we navigate the crossroads of nurturing in-house talent versus the allure of agency expertise, we share candid tales of loyalty, growth, and the strategic choices that mold a brand's future. This episode peels back layers on the long-term benefits of cultivating a team in tune with your brand's heartbeat, juxtaposed against the high turnover rates you might face when pulling talent from agencies.
