Hiring might seem cheaper upfront \u2014 but over time, it eats into your profits. You\u2019re paying ongoing fees, relying on availability, and at the end of it all, you don\u2019t own a thing.<\/p>\n

Buying<\/strong>, on the other hand, gives you full control. You\u2019re building equity in your business, not someone else\u2019s. You can take on more work, work to your schedule, and stop stressing over return deadlines or hire costs adding up in the background.<\/p>\n
