📩Heads up! We've got a new sending address. Going forward, our emails come from [email protected]. Please add it to your contacts (or safe-sender list) so you never miss an edition.
Most of you are probably OOO for the long weekend, like me (my marketing assistant is sending this one out).
But if you're reading it on a Friday afternoon, right before the 4th? That's kind of the whole point.
Because if you're still in your inbox right now, odds are you'll be in it all weekend too.
One eye on Slack at the cookout. A "quick check" that turns into an hour.
You know the drill.
It doesn't have to be this way. You can have the freedom to actually log off, on the 4th and every weekend after it.
And to keep things on theme, we'll send you a 22-piece Blackstone grill set with your next hire.
Here's the deal nobody warned you about when you started.
The more the business needs you, the less of your own life you actually get back. Every gap nobody else can fill lands on your desk by default.
Call it the Freedom Tax.
I was on a call last week with a founder living it.
Sharp software company, real traction. But his CEO and CTO were each doing a full second job on top of their own: the product, the roadmap, the backlog, bugs at night. His two best people, burning their evenings on work one good hire should own.
Nobody at the top could step away. Not for a week, not even a long weekend like this one.
And the fix wasn't three more hires to spread it around. It was one.
One operator who could own that whole seat, around $4,500 a month.
The work stops landing on the founders. The evenings come back.
That's really what we do.
We help you grow your team into places like South Africa, Eastern Europe, and Latin America, and find the one person who takes a job off your plate for good.
Flat fee, no markups, no cut of their salary.
So here's our little 4th of July offer, and it's simple:
Book a call by July 8th (we’re giving you a little extra time so you can enjoy the weekend). Make a hire, and we ship you a Blackstone 22-piece grill tool set, on us.
New clients only. T’s & C’s apply.
No rush on timing. The set ships once your hire is done and you're actually happy with the fit.
We'd rather get the person right than get you a spatula fast.
Think about it this way. Make one great hire now, and next year you're the one at the grill while your team runs the play. This year, we'll at least stock your toolset.
Anyway. Close the laptop. Go enjoy the weekend.
Reply to this email or book a call wth our recruitment specialists below, and I'll show you what that one hire could look like for your team.
Happy 4th,
Nathan
