#23 - Matt Jones & Garrett Paul
The Entrepreneur Lounge Podcast by Garrett Paul
Episode notes
Can you build a high performer without paying top dollar for one? Matt and Garrett break down the "hire vs. train" debate โ using the Seahawks' Super Bowl roster and NFL salary cap rules as the perfect analogy for why young, coachable talent can outperform (and out-earn) the expensive veteran hire.
They also get into:
Why culture, leadership, and a real training system beat "just hiring experience"
The roles & responsibilities talk every business owner avoids โ until it costs them
How to correct behavior without making it personal (and why specificity beats "you're always late")
Why being visible in your network matters more than being on social media โ and how one coffee turned into real business, live on the mic
Plus: Hard Knocks, GLP-1 jokes, and why "shake hands and kiss babies" still works.
