How to Build a Business That Doesn’t Burn Out Its People (or Its Profits)

Here’s a truth most entrepreneurs don’t like to admit:

Bad HR is a silent killer. Not just of team morale — but of revenue.

Think about it:

• A single bad hire can cost 2–3x their annual salary.

• A disengaged employee doesn’t just underperform — they drag others down.

• And every time you lose someone good? You’re paying in recruiting, onboarding, and lost momentum.

But here’s the kicker: it’s all avoidable.

With the right systems, policies, and people practices — your HR doesn’t have to suck. In fact, it can become your competitive advantage.

💼 Real Value This Week:

✅ Simple scripts for hard HR convos (e.g. firing with clarity, not chaos)

✅ A hiring test to instantly filter out toxic candidates

✅ One onboarding tweak that slashes early turnover by 37%

✅ How to stop being the “emotional support CEO” for every workplace meltdown

📌 Real Example:

One founder we know was losing over €120,000/year due to employee churn in his 15-person team.

After reading I Hate It Here and applying just 3 changes (better onboarding, 30-day check-ins, and clearer exit interviews)…

He cut that loss in half in 6 months — and got his nights back.

🧭 Closing Thought:

Building something great doesn’t just require ambition. It requires people who don’t hate coming to work every day.

You can’t scale chaos.

But with the right HR mindset?

You can scale culture — and your cash flow.

See you next issue,
