When you are a one-person company you are kind of used to doing everything yourself. You wouldn't have gotten to where you are at unless you could wear many hats. When you are first starting out this is fine but once you start to experience success this can be a downfall because you waste your time doing remedial tasks. For example, I'm quite capable of running my own server and hosting WordPress, yet spending my time being a system admin does not help my business.

I'm still learning to let go of some task and hire it out but there's a part of me that want to just do it myself. It's the perfectionist in me I guess. I know though that ultimately to continue to grow I need to start delegating and learn to let go or else I'll always be a one-person company. What are some things you do to save time and become more efficient?
