This episode is brought to you by Upwork, a platform that helps you find expert freelancers to help you build, design, and scale your business. Upwork is a place where you can hire people for consumer use cases for smaller things, but you can also hire people for big business use cases. Both are extremely effective. Hiring requires great tools, and Upwork is a great tool that I have used many times throughout my life. There is nothing as fulfilling, as valuable, as awesome in life as working with a great team. The process and the tools and the effort of hiring a great team is truly worth it. It's a really nice mechanism for matching employers and employees. Plus, they're starting to integrate AI into the whole process by giving you an AI-powered shortlist. Visit upwork.com/lex right now and post your job for free.
