Hire, Outsource, or Do It Yourself? Follow the Decision Tree

Hiring is the biggest fixed cost a small business takes on. Get it right and you unlock growth. Get it wrong and you have committed to thousands per month with no easy exit. This decision tree helps you work out the right approach based on your actual situation.

How to use

Answer questions about why you need help, whether the demand is consistent or variable, your budget, and the skills you need. Each path leads to a specific recommendation with a detailed explanation and things to watch out for.
