Employing the right people at the right time helps support you and your Business development. It helps set you and your Business up for success. 

Do your recruitment homework!.  

• Before hiring do your research and sums. What are the total costs, and implications including their entitlements, pay rates etc. Ensure you match your Business needs, and employment costs to their skills, abilities and productivity. Make sure all the ducks line up. 

• Be flexible with employment arrangements and options. Roster to peak periods, consider employment options, casual, or permanent to suit your needs. Is outsourcing viable or practical for some tasks?  

• Develop ‘good’ staff.

  To keep the right people and avoid ongoing hiring costs, provide training and development opportunities to those who perform well and positively contribute. By supporting each other everyone benefits. You may nurture this in your own Business and observed as a consumer. Before your eyes potential talent develops and grows. Examples, at your local café, hardware store or hairdresser. It's great everyone!  

• Reward staff for exceptional results. For example, those reaching sales targets help improve your cashflow. Acknowledge effort and give appropriate rewards, such as a bonus or commission. It's a win win situation.
