MyPR: Leverage outsourcing in stages of high growth and access the skills to overcome any challenge:
A founder’s journey is a rollercoaster. Some of the highest highs and lowest lows a human can experience are tied to the quest for business success. One of the most exciting times in an entrepreneur’s life is when a business starts to gain real momentum.
Leading a business is no easy task – especially in a high-growth environment. Things move fast. Faster than usual and pressure continues to build with the endless tasks and situations to consider. How strong is our product/market fit? What is our customer retention like? Why is our CAC increasing? What talent do we need and where are we going to find it?? Sales, operations, tech, marketing … people. The tasks are endless, time is finite and your skill set – although great – is limited.
Ever feel overstretched?
Finance is complex and the finance function is often one of the last frontiers to get fortified by the leadership team. It is also one that becomes increasingly more important as you head towards further expansion, possible fundraises and potential acquisitions. Getting the numbers right is critical. So is developing the right strategy based on analysis, forecasts and smart financial management.
High-growth environments, although great, can start to have adverse effects on a founding team. As growth increases, so does the workload, variability of tasks, and complexity of challenges. What does not increase is time, and working longer, more difficult hours – without the right support – will lead to mistakes and burnout.
But does outsourcing make sense for my company?
If some of the below situations seem all too familiar, you are most likely experiencing the symptoms of continued high growth over an extended period. It may be time to consider accessing expert help:
- Inability to hire quickly enough
- Difficulty in finding the right talent, with the right skill set
- Employee churn as a result of burnout
- Industry-specific challenges requiring specialised knowledge
- Dated or lack of the correct systems and integration
- Poor information flow through the organisation.

Did you know this about Johannesburg? The Albert Hertzog Tower in Brixton Johannesburg was completed in 1962. It is 237-metre-high (778 ft) high concrete radio and (now) television tower. The first transmission took place on 22 December 1961. Presently 18 FM programs and 7 TV stations are broadcast from there. When Albert Hertzog fell into disfavour with the government, it was called the Brixton Tower. At present it is called the Sentech Tower.
