Daniel Ramsey is the founder and CEO of MyOutDesk, the highest rated Virtual Assistant company in the marketplace with over hundreds of 5-star reviews and over 10 years of experience, serving more than 5000 clients – including over half of the RealTrends Top 10 teams.

Daniel is a long-time licensed real estate broker, mortgage broker, and general contractor who has sold hundreds of homes and made millions in commissions, and built real estate’s #1 staffing company. Back in 2008, he was inspired by his own time-management struggles to find a better way to help agents leverage their time and energy, and created MyOutDesk to provide a trusted, reliable solution to the office administration, marketing and prospecting tasks.

In twelve years with MyOutDesk, Daniel has helped thousands of clients scale their businesses and grow profitability. He has worked with some of the top clients in the industry – from sales organizations like the Mark Spain Team and Ben Kinney to tech providers like the Zillow Group, Keller Williams, and RE/MAX.

Daniel has 2 lovely daughters and a wonderful wife and is passionate about extending the movement beyond revenue, making an actual difference in many people’s lives. He has made this dream a reality through the incorporation of the “MOD Movement”, 501(c)3 charity that has participated in building orphanages and senior housing in the Philippines as well as life-planning programs for at-risk youth in the United States.

In today’s conversation with us, Daniel explains their charity impact model, what they track, and how they involve their employees and clients so that everyone wins. We also discuss key business principles and how to know when you’re ready to hire a full-time team of virtual professionals to scale your growth.

As Daniel points out, the biggest challenge in business is always people – finding more people, better talent, and learning how to lead them better. Daniel and his team at MyOutDesk will show you how to solve this challenge so you can scale your business and your impact, just as they have done.
