Introducing: Hiring Your First Employee Mini-Course
A practical, no-fluff training for business owners ready to hire their first employee—or grow a small but mighty team.
Lay the Foundation for a Great Team
Before you post a job or collect resumes, you need a workplace worth joining. This module helps you create a positive, supportive culture that attracts the right people and sets the tone for how your small team will grow—because great teams don’t happen by accident, they’re built with intention.
Avoid Legal & Classification Mistakes
Hiring your first employee comes with rules—and skipping them can cost you big. This module breaks down what you must know to stay compliant, including how to correctly classify employees vs. contractors, what paperwork is required, and how to protect your business from legal headaches before they start.

Getting paid shouldn’t be a problem—for you or your new hire. This module walks you through setting up payroll, handling taxes, and meeting compliance requirements without drowning in paperwork or risking costly mistakes. Smart, simple, and stress-free.
Hire & Onboard With Confidence
Finding the right person is only half the battle—setting them up for success is the other.
