Building your team and nailing company culture

Invest in your startup by focusing on the people and culture that will help you create a business built for success. Here are a few steps we recommend taking…

1. Hiring a team

Unless you’re planning on being a solo pilot, you’re going to need a team. That could be freelancers and contractors, or permanent staff. Whoever you bring on board, make sure you take time to understand any skill gaps or growth opportunities and hire people with those profiles. 

Our top tips will give you pointers for nailing the hiring process, motivating your team and helping them grow with the business.

2. Create the right culture

Culture has become a buzzword over recent years. And there’s a good reason for that. Creating a working environment in which your team feels happy, productive and empowered is priceless. And it’ll work absolute magic for your business.

A great company culture and the right rewards will help you attract and keep the right talent, and can help avoid losing valued team members.

3. Startup vs small business

If you’re launching a new business, you might wonder if a startup and a small business are the same thing. They’re not. It’s useful to understand the startup mindset and the challenges a startup founder may face.

4. Get the right support

Support means the world when you’re starting a new business. Every startup Founder will need support at some stage. That might be sounding out your business ideas with friends and family, pitching to investors for funding, or working with a business mentor to accelerate your growth.

To get you started, find out if a business coach is for you and how to choose the right business coach.
