Erica discusses the crucial transition for small business owners from being self-employed solo operators to true business owners who delegate tasks and build systems. She emphasizes that being self-employed means the business relies entirely on the owner's labor, leading to burnout and limits on growth, typically stalling around $100,000 in revenue. She advocates for hiring staff, outsourcing functions like marketing and bookkeeping, and implementing efficient systems to create a sustainable and profitable business that can run without the owner being directly involved in the daily work.
