Here are 24 common positions within a company: 1. Chief Executive Officer  2. Chief Financial Officer 3. Chief Operating Officer  4. Marketing Manager 5. Technical Director 6. Business Analyst 7. Executive Assistant 8. HR Manager 9. President 10. Project Manager 11. Sales Representative 12. Accountant 13. Administrative Assistant 14. Finance Manager 15. Bookkeeper 16. Chief Marketing Officer 17. Customer Service Representative 18. Manager 19. Marketing Specialist 20. Office Manager 21. Receptionist 22. Vice President 23. Account Executive  24. Administrator If you’re starting a business alone, you're likely going to fill all of them and more. You wear allll the hats. So if you’re having a hard time or feeling overwhelmed, cut yourself some slack. It’s a heavy lift and far more than just providing a product or service! I'd love to hear from fellow solopreneurs, did you know what you were getting into or were you surprised by all the hats? And also, did you end up outsourcing anything??

Yessss wearing a billion hats 😅 it can be overwhelming sometimes but way better than working to build someone else’s empire. 10 years in and I’ve only outsourced one thing… to my partner who used to be an accountant: Filing taxes 🤣 I had my brother help me with setting up my first website many years ago but since then, I’ve learned a thing or two so I don’t need to bug him as often 🙈

Jessica Walrack - A very guilty all-the-hats-wearer here! 👋 I definitely used to worry about the impression/impact it would have on my brand if someone other than me did every little last thing. But LinkedIn has really opened my eyes to all the amazing quality that's out there. (Still not easy to find...but it's there!) I've been thinking about this outsourcing piece a lot lately because I know me doing everything isn't the best or most sustainable solution. Especially if I'm looking to grow and scale over the years.

I haven't read the post yet. But is this what a LinkedIn bro looks like in real life? 😂

When you break it down like that it makes me feel pretty damn good about myself and all the skillsets I've had to acquire/apply to run a successful business. Appreciate this :)

Now add the ones you wear at home, and the result is like the modern-day Tower of Babel, isn't it? 🏗️ But seriously, you hit the nail on the head!

Managing all these positions as a solopreneur is definitely a heavy lift, but your dedication and hard work will surely pay off. It's normal to feel overwhelmed, but remember to give yourself credit for juggling so much! Your resilience is inspiring!
