How To Build A Winning Team On A Startup Budget
“Am I paying my team enough?”
I get it…
I’ve had gaping holes in my business. It’s no fun.
And losing your best people without warning is terrifying.

But no need to lose sleep over this.
Here’s something that’ll put your mind at ease…

Words.
Words are your weapons.
