When I started working as a virtual assistant, I thought it would be a temporary thing for me. You see, five years ago I was very skeptical about this industry. I didn’t think being a VA was a real career. But I was dead wrong.
The first job I landed as a virtual assistant was with a start-up company. My boss and his accountant, who both live in the US, and myself located in Manila, were the only 3 people running the company at the time.
But the company grew so fast, that the accountant had to hire another person dedicated to doing the payroll and handling the staff schedules, after only eight months. That company now has more than 50 regular employees working virtually from the Philippines.
What worked?
When he put up his company my boss had little capital to start with, so he couldn’t afford to pay a decent salary to a full time employee in the US. A really smart guy though, he knew that in order for him to successfully build his company, he has to offload the most tedious tasks and just focus on his marketing strategy and client relations.
So he looked for options that would fit his needs. He went online and found resources for offshore hiring.
In a matter of weeks, he was able to find the right people to run his business operations smoothly. This allowed him the freedom to focus on conceptualizing ideas to further his business success, plus more time connecting with his customers to gain their loyalty and trust.
Time is money.
My boss attributes the success of his company for having the luxury to focus on constantly improving his business and establishing client relations. Offshore hiring allowed him to afford a team of professionals to handle his business operations. His time is solely used on things that would ensure his business success.
He’s able to achieve his ambitious goals through using his time wisely.
