Thanks for sharing. I agree, it's hard for people to fit certain things into their budget. But, I think what we sometimes don't realize is that we can start small. For example, if you want to hire a VA, hire that person for just a couple of tasks, or just a couple of hours. Many times, experts offer their services in bite size pieces - so you don't have to be making a mountain of money before you get the help you need! Awesome insight Michelle! Thanks for sharing.

It's easy to look at a task and think it's not worth it to pay someone else to do what we think we can do ourselves, but there's a big difference between scraping together something that will get you by, and having a professional create something that will get you results. Just the amount of frustration that it saves to hire an expert can easily be worth the cost of certain projects. Two points that finally helped me make the jump to outsourcing some of tasks and hiring help with several others was that (1) I admitted that it wasn't my strength and I didn't enjoy it, and (2) if I had someone else do that, I could invest the time in my profit-generating activities instead! So, less frustration, more profit. :) This is fantastic advice, Jenn.
