Comment on The Profitable Startup

We're technically profitable and pretty much always have been, since our first paid sub. I still don't know how to scale from 0 to 1 employee though. I tried hiring a couple times but... It's really hard to justify paying someone $$$ to do a terrible job, having to train them instead of just delivering actual value myself, and then just praying to God they deliver non-negative value after a few months?? How do I do this? I should target them generating 500k revenue? That's more than our total revenue.
