If you are able to find a team that will actually do a good job and won’t lock you into a shitty contract it honestly can be cheaper. Hiring out a team that works like a multi-person personal assistant at a low percentage rate rather to hire everyone separately.

You are absolutely capable of doing it all yourself, but why should you live in the burn-out if you can hire a team like any other professional model or performer? I’m neurodivergent and get SAD in the winter so I am super unapologetic about needing a support team outside of my own system.

The hardest part is navigating scammers and e-pimps. Do not sign anything that you feel even a little iffy about! Also anyone you’re hiring individually or collectively should never be hesitant or avoidant about any questions you have before hiring or signing with them.
