Transitioning From a Solo Business Owner
to a Leadership Position
For some people, moving from a sole entrepreneur to a team leader should be a natural
progression. Yet, before you take the steps in this transition, there are a few things that
you can learn. You may start by talking to others in your same industry or anyone who has
mastered these skills.
Having said this, here are 3 tips that can increase your success in making this transition.
Pay Close Attention to the Signs that Says You Need a Team
At the start of your freelance career, you’ll take on assignments that you can handle. If not,
you may lose a lot of your clients before you can make a profit. To avoid these issues, the
first thing you will need to do is create a schedule that helps you to maximize your time,
After a while, you may need to hire other freelancers to help you meet your deadlines. In
short, you need to pay very close attention to the signs that say you need to create your

Once you have decided to hire a team to assist you with your work, you’ll need to cultivate
the team and its growth. Though there are many ways to go about this process, you need
to pick a strategy that will yield the best results. For instance, the primary goal is to hire
team members that add the best value for your money.
You can do this by hiring several people to perform the same or similar job. After their
work is complete, you can screen each person’s work to see who is the top performer.
Learn How to Remotely Manage Your Team Effectively
After people are hired to the work for you, your next step in this process is to assign work
remotely. Since people are working from home, your management style must match this
virtual environment. This virtual remote management style should consist of the following:
– Providing your team with the communication platform that will help them in keeping in
touch
– Set reasonable times for copywriters and other freelance positions to complete their
tasks and projects.
