The people you surround yourself with can either accelerate your growth or hold your business hostage.


In this solo episode, Rick Trimmer breaks down one of the biggest challenges business owners face: building the right team. He explains why keeping the wrong people can cost you far more than money, how to identify the right employees, and why sometimes the best decision you can make is moving someone into a different seat—or helping them find a different bus entirely.


Rick also shares how he has built teams capable of operating without him, why giving employees a path toward ownership can help you retain your best people, and why building a great team requires thinking far beyond the next 90 days.


In This Episode You'll Learn:


Why keeping the wrong employee can be more expensive than replacing them.

How to qualify potential employees faster and identify the right people.

The difference between having the right person and having them in the right seat.

Why great employees need opportunities to grow.

How to identify the people who belong on your personal bus.

Why your team should be built around where you want to be 10 years from now.

The four questions every business owner should ask about their team.

How ownership can help you attract and retain high-level employees.

Why building your team is an ongoing process, not a one-time decision.

When it's time to make difficult changes to protect the future of your business.


Your business is only as strong as the people helping you move it forward. Get the right people on the bus, put them in the right seats, and stop being afraid to make changes when something isn't working.
