Why is it important for people to hire experts to handle the things that they either don’t have time for or don’t understand?
Do’s
1. Review their history
2. Testimonials from previous clients
3. Education – do they stay current in their area of expertise?
4. Organizations they belong to and their roles in those organizations – do they take leadership roles or admin roles, how involved are they? Are they over extended?
5. Blogs, Articles, and Social Sharing they have written
6. Watch their videos
7. Their frequently asked questions
8. Their Photo gallery – who do they know?
9. Do they collaborate with other experts - create solutions
10. Interact with the expert before hiring them
1. Hire your brother-in-law
2. Many people tell others their idea and they say great – I’ll help you – well if you both don’t have any experience it will take a long time to implement
3. Get discouraged
4. When you tell others your ideas many small thinkers will laugh at you and tell you that you are crazy – many people give up before they get started
5. Ever give up – remember it’s not how many ideas you start to implement – it is how many you finish that count!
You can’t always be an expert, you can’t always know an expert but you can always hire an expert.
