| Hi In Part 6 of our Business Starter Toolkit, we'll explore how easy it is to staff your business by taking advantage of a digital workplace.
A digital workplace is one that is supported by freelancers that can be accessed at anytime from anywhere. Since it costs less to hire a freelancer compared to conventional methods and it's also much faster, you can quickly supplement skills shortages in your business with little interruptions to workflow. The ability to scale rapidly at low cost is a highly potent combination that will bring a smile to any entrepreneur's face. Let's take a look at what building out a complete staff structure would look like as a digital workplace. |

Building up the staff structure of a digital workplace As your workplace grows, it transcends through different phases. Phase 1
During phase 1, it is just the core team running the entire show, which is usually comprised of only one founder. Managing and running all departments of the business alone could prevent you from taking the time to meet with prospective influencers, or even completely burn you out. As a digital workplace, it's comforting to know that you have a supportive network of freelancers you can call upon at any time for assistance for however long you need them. If you want to focus more on customer engagement but require some code iterations to be performed, you could hire a freelance programmer to help for a short term. |

The best part about hiring freelancers is that there's no obligation to keep them on board for long periods of time. Use them whenever you need to and then just walk away. You can always call upon them again (or others) whenever you need help. Think of hiring freelancers as a "Marketplace as a Service" model, you only pay for what you need for however long you need it.
