The Hidden Price of Cheap Staff — Todd’s Costly Lesson in Hiring
Description
When Todd first joined the Academy, he was at breaking point — burnt out, buried in admin, and stuck on the tools.
For 10 years, he worked himself into the ground, thinking hard work alone would create freedom. It didn’t.
In this episode, Todd shares how he went from exhaustion to expansion by making key hires, putting in systems, and learning the real cost of cheap labour.
From understanding his cost of operations to mastering recruitment ads with AI, Todd reveals the mindset and operational changes that bought him his time back, and how he’s now testing his business by stepping away for four weeks.
Whether you’re stuck doing it all yourself, worried about hiring, or afraid to raise your prices, Todd’s story will show you what’s possible when you put the right people, systems, and mindset in place.
