By Space Coast Daily // April 29, 2015
Fueled by caffeine and passion
Strong Coffee, Strong Women is a bimonthly event where business professionals and entrepreneurs are encouraged to build and grow meaningful connections.
Fueled by caffeine and passion, this morning networking event is for women who are focused on achieving something fresh and new for their business and themselves.
Who’s on Your Team?
As a small business owner, you don’t have an HR department, a legal department, or any other specialized group of employees to handle various aspects of business operations.
Everything that goes on in your business is your responsibility, but you can’t do it all by yourself.
You need to work with outside professionals to help you with such tasks as filing your tax return, dealing with IT problems and protecting your intellectual property.
In our discussion, we’ll cover:
- Who should be on your team
- How to assemble your team
- Special concerns of hiring employees versus independent contractors
