Grass Roots Motivation
Hello to everyone. I am new to Jobber, but far from new to entrepreneurship. While still employed full-time I started teaching kids how to weld and fabricate in my job shop. That was 16 years ago and I call my shop (Metal Work By Carole a teaching job shop). I am retired now, but still take in side jobs or consult to local businesses. I knew a long time ago that I couldn't wait for educational institutions to teach in ways that really mattered. I took the alleged "skills gap" issue into my own hands. I am hoping to be awarded some funding from the Jobbers Grant process. That would be amazing. Thanks for reading and keep preaching that dirty hands make clean money. Rock on.4Views0likes0CommentsHit my capacity ceiling as a solo operator — when did you know it was time to hire?
I'm at 99 clients running completely solo, working until midnight most days, and I recently had a hire fall through. I've realized my problem isn't marketing or sales anymore — it's that I've hit the ceiling of what one person can physically deliver. For those who've made the jump: how did you know it was actually time, and how did you find someone reliable in this industry? The hiring failure stung and I'm wary of trying again mid-season, but I also can't keep running at midnight-every-night pace.92Views3likes5CommentsAnyone here doing government contracts?
