I've gotten many questions like this one recently. More and more people want to move out of Big Tech's reach. I get it. That's why I'm so excited about a new sponsor of my show, StartMail. It's an email service I really trust, and you can too. They don't track you, they don't analyze your emails, and they aren't packaging up and selling your data to the highest bidder. You can send encrypted emails with one click, and when you delete an email, it’s gone forever.

Go to StartMail.com/Kim to try it out yourself free for 7 days. Use my link to get your first year for 50% off.

Cloud backup is still the way to go. You just need to make sure you're using a safe, reliable company to get the job done. My pick is IDrive. Your data is encrypted with 256-bit AES encryption on transfer and storage. You can set your privacy to the highest level by creating a private key for your account during signup. That means no one but you will have access to your data.

For personal storage, you can get 5 TB of storage a year for just a few bucks. Get your exclusive discount at IDrive.com and use promo code Kim at checkout.

You can attract a lot of candidates on those sites, but as you've found, you won't necessarily get the right ones. It's a ton of work sorting through all of that! You might not even find anyone who fits the job.

When I'm hiring, I use LinkedIn Jobs. It can help by matching your role with qualified candidates so you can find the right person quickly. LinkedIn screens for skills and you can use a ton of different tools to narrow down your search. That means so much less work on your end.

Right now, you can post a job for FREE at LinkedIn.com/Kim.
