Ep. 15 Delegation as a Tool for Business Growth

  • Summary

  • This week, Alisa, Josh & Jason welcome a special guest host to the show: Jeff Harris, founder of JMJB Merchant Solutions, a credit card processing brokerage based out of Philadelphia. Alisa (First Steps Financial) leads the discussion about delegating work to facilitate growth. When, how, and why should a business owner decide to delegate tasks? How do you know that the time is right to add to your team? Our co-hosts recall the moments that drove them to finally start delegating, and the immediate benefits they saw from doing so.

    00:35 Alisa introduces the episode

    02:00 Jeff Harris talks about his career path and why he decided to start his own company, JMJB Merchant Solutions.

    06:00 Jason explains why everybody should start delegating “sooner than I did!”

    07:50 Jason manages to paraphrase MC Hammer, much to the delight of his co-hosts!

    09:40 Josh knows that its’ time to delegate more when the pressure builds – delegation becomes a release valve of sorts, so you can get out of your own way.

    11:10 Jeff Harris finds that bringing someone on to do the tasks he doesn’t love doing allows him to focus his time and efforts.

    15:00 Jason asks the group to weigh in on what it’s like when you start delegating the high value work. When do you know you need another “you”?

    Quotes:

    Every time I've made that step to hand somebody something, it's freed me up to be a better boss and be able to grow my vision quickly and efficiently.

    Alisa McCabe, First Steps Financial

    As long as I keep surrounding myself with people smarter than me, my business is going to soar.

    Josh Irons, River Avenue Digital

    [When] adding to your own team, I would take ability, intellectual fire power, being a culture match -- to me, those are much more important than does someone have previous experience, do they have some particular technical skill.

    Jason Meyer, Meyer Business Law

    Figure out what you love doing and what you are incredibly good at doing, and really focus and go hard at those things. Then figure out ways to have the other stuff taken care of elsewhere.

    Jeff Harris, JMJB Merchant Solutions
