Business Owners: How Many Hats Is Too Many Hats?
Running a business means sometimes wearing a lot of hats. Part of that is normal.
What’s not normal is wearing all of them at the same time. Because at some point, “being hands-on” turns into:
Answering phones while on a job
Posting on social media once every three weeks
Doing paperwork at night
Making collection calls over the weekend
Remembering passwords to accounts you don’t even remember creating
Suddenly, you’re not just the owner—you’re the receptionist, marketer, scheduler, bookkeeper, collection agency and IT department. This might work for a while but at some point in your company’s growth trajectory, it will begin to hold you back.
The real danger of wearing too many hats isn’t that you’re bad at it. It’s that everything starts moving slower… because everything depends on you. Growth stalls. Burnout creeps in. And the business you built to gain freedom starts feeling more burdensome than the 9-5 you left behind to build it.
Here’s the good news: You don’t need to wear the hats better. You just need to take a few of them off.
