Lesson Takeaways: 1. Know Your Entrepreneurial Type: Success isn't one-size-fits-all.

Create a \"P.O.I.N.T.\" plan (Plan, Outcome, Intent, Next Steps, Team/Timeline) for their first 14 days and six weeks. This saves time, money, and frustration, and sets the new hire—and your business—up for success. 3.
