Hired first non-founder employee

After 10 months of working solo on projects, I had to make a decision: either I turned down the new business coming my way or I hire someone to help me carry the load.

At first, I posted for a temporary admin assistant with social media skills (part-time), but I ended up hiring two people (one FT, one PT) that could help on the social and admin side.

Only one of them worked out (the FT one), but she stayed for about 2 years and grew with the company (she left to grow her career at a bigger firm). So much for temporary!
