Swimming (or drowning) in Success
I've been through this process a few times now, and know a little more now. I think so many posts we see here are about how to make the first $100, or how to get traffic, or building lists, etc. But I've done all that (many times) and very often reach a point where I've got so much business coming in that I am near a point where I need to start turning business away or else scale VERY quickly!
Obviously, the clear answer is you have to scale. You have to hire more people to help you, but often these people don't know much about what you have been doing for the last year to reach the current level of success, so new hires need lots of training and personal attention just to get them acquainted with the work at hand.
What I have done in recent years is create a manual as I go. Once I have a process in place, I document that process with the assumption that someone else will be doing what I'm doing now. I shoot videos about varying parts of the business too. That way when I have a new person all I need to do is point them to some documentation and videos, and I can continue with my own often busy workload.
So just a note about how important it is to Prepare to Succeed. If you aren't ready for it, you can easily get knocked right back down, or just be stressed all the time.
I'd love to hear from anyone else that has been through similar situations and grew beyond it. I'm still learning but doing pretty well scaling this time around!
