114. Are You Hiring Full Time When Fractional Would Work Better?

The Ops Experts Club Podcast · May 21, 2026 · 17m

SUMMARY:

Aaron and Terryn tackle one of the most expensive decisions entrepreneurs get wrong: hiring full time when fractional would serve them better. They run through a rapid-fire breakdown of common roles including executive assistants, finance team, customer support, and tech, and call out exactly when each one makes sense as a fractional hire versus an internal employee. They also get into the EA versus VA debate, why hemisphere matters more than most people think, and why piloting with a fractional expert first almost always sets you up for a smarter full-time hire down the road.
