Free, live, and not a lecture. Come ready to share what you're working through, we'll work real situations together.

HOW IT WORKS

Know the numbers behind a great hire: Competitive salaries and profitable fee schedules.

Get confident about hiring: Leave with fees that work, for your firm, right now.

Learn from our mistakes, not yours: Get real answers to your hiring Qs that are proven to work.

·  Twenty minutes: Laura and Melissa work the three numbers on a real hire, live.

·  Then the room. Bring the hire you've been putting off and your figures, and we'll run them.

·  You leave with a real answer, not notes.

Leave with the 3 numbers behind every great hire.

N°01

What you can afford. Understanding your margins tells you a hire is sustainable.

N°02

What you should pay. Competitive salaries attract top talent without hurting your margins.

N°03

What to charge. Structure your hourly fees to cover salaries and protect profits.

Affordability isn't a gut feeling. It's real numbers we'll help you calculate.

WHO THIS IS FOR

This works whether you're bringing on your first hire or your fifth. It's for you if:

  • You have more work than you can handle, and you're the bottleneck when it comes to taking on more projects.
  • You're building a team for the first time and you're unsure of who to hire first.
  • You've been in business for 3 years or more and you haven't raised your fees.
  • You want the exact role, the real salary number, and a plan for this quarter, not a hiring philosophy.
  • You'd rather spend 45 minutes than another quarter guessing.

You want the numbers, not a hiring philosophy. It's a real firm. Run it like one.
