But seriously. Always be hiring!
Today, Laura & I discuss the importance of always hiring in a service-based business (or, at the very least, always interviewing). We talk about the concept of the bench (yes, it's a thing) and how to successfully maintain it. We share the (low key terrifying) statistic that 52% of employees are thinking about quitting their job, which is why being prepared for employee turnover is SO important.
In order to succeed with your staffing situation & minimize chaos, it is important to offer a good job (with good pay, incentives & an amazing company culture), stay vigilant with your team, and always be overstaffed so that you remain in control.
Takeaways:
- 52% of your employees are thinking about quitting, so always be prepared for turnover
- Consider 'benching' potential candidates by keeping their information on file for future hiring needs
- A good training system, takes a lot of time & money, so you need to always keep the wheels spinning by constantly hiring & training
- Offer a great job with good pay and an amazing company culture to attract and retain employees
- Always be overstaffed so that you remain in control!
