Welcome to Episode 228 of Building My Legacy.

When, as a new business owner, Danielle Mulvey realized her lack of a hiring strategy quickly caught up with her, she decided to get smart about hiring. The result was a process that has been successful for all of her businesses and that she uses now to help other business owners hire and keep what she calls “5-star employees.” Danielle believes that too many businesses — particularly those with 10 or more employees and at least a million dollars in revenue — struggle to make a profit because of an inflated payroll that includes “average or ho-hum employees.” By making better hiring decisions and attracting 5-star employees, these businesses can realize and increase their profits.

So if you want to know:

• The top mistakes people make in hiring
• How a “shadow day” — as part of the interview process — can be a win-win for the employer and the job candidate
• Why you have to go “all in” on recruitment, hiring and retention if you expect employees to go all in for you
• The five criteria in the “5-star employee” rating system
• The importance of measuring the “return on payroll”
