We talk through which roles are typically contracted, how to decide what to outsource versus handle in-house, and where to find great contractors in the first place. We also share the signals that tell us someone will be a strong partner before show day — along with the red flags we’ve learned to take seriously sooner. Get ready to learn how you can use contractors to build out your team (and if you're a contractor, learn what folks hiring look for).
