“We need to let them go.”

I’m in a 1-1 and a manager thinks someone in their team isn’t performing.

I'm in shock, to me they seemed enthusiastic and a culture fit.


We dug into the details:

- What weren’t they doing?
- Why weren’t they doing it?

The manager thought they either didn't understand or couldn't do the role.

Then I ask:

“How did onboarding go?”

“What do you mean by onboarding?” they reply.


And that's when we found the issue:

We skipped the onboarding process and replaced it with "a couple of calls".


If you’re recruiting right, you owe it to yourself to onboard right.

You can’t expect someone to join and start performing, you need to set them up to succeed.

Onboard right or do it twice.

Agree?

$4.5m ARR. $0 raised. I have no idea what I’m doing.

Being easy to work with is a skill.

It’s honed with practice.


I call it, being a Working Legend.

Here’s how you do it:

 - Seek feedback
- Be collaborative
- Own your mistakes
- Respect others’ opinions
- Maintain a positive attitude
- Don’t take credit for others’ work
- Offer solutions, not just problems
- Respond quickly to simple requests
- Don’t pretend to have all the answers

What am I missing?

We have 77 full-time team members scattered around the globe.


Building a remote team sounds simple, but the biggest headache is the tech gap.

Most founders do not see these real operational challenges coming.

I spent a decade building businesses, and the move to fully remote with Fame was a massive learning curve.

People talk about the freedom of remote work, but nobody tells you about the friction that quietly damages your culture before it even forms.


When you hire someone new, they need to feel like they are part of the team from day one.

If they sit around for a week waiting for a laptop to arrive, you have already lost that initial momentum.

It is a practical nightmare getting reliable kits to people fast without it becoming a full-time job for your operations person.


Then there are the hidden costs.

Buying hardware upfront is a massive cash drain.

Every pound you lock up in a laptop that depreciates the second it leaves the box is a pound you cannot spend on a big hire or a new growth experiment.


I realised we needed to stop buying stuff that rots on our balance sheet.

We use Raylo to remove this friction.

- It takes 60 seconds to set up a subscription, we pay £0 upfront, and the tech arrives the next day.

- They just launched the new Apple MacBooks for pre-order, and they start shipping from the 10th of March.

- We get flexible terms for our team, and we upgrade for free so we are never stuck with outdated kit.

Running a remote business is challenging.

But Raylo offers a reliable way to get team tech and ensure they feel valued from day one.

You keep your capital for growth.
