Hiring a Virtual Assistant | Should you leverage offshore talent to grow your payroll company?

Listen Later

A lot of people are interested in leveraging offshore talent to move their business forward. While this is not a new thing, there are still a lot of limiting beliefs about what you can get help with from offshore teammates.

People are worried about the level of skill, getting screwed over, worried about the quality of the work, don’t trust the systems, and don’t know how to get started.

We are going to help you navigate this. We have completed over 100 contracts with offshore assistants and specialists ranging from general virtual assistants to highly skilled professionals.

We have spent well into the six figures with offshore talent over the last few years and it provides a nice supplement to our local team.

Our mindset is that we can create far more “onshore” jobs by leveraging contract talent to help us grow. In this episode we covered the following and more:

  • The types of tasks and projects you can offshore
  • Where to find remote talent
  • How to set your offshore teammates (and yourself) up for success
  • Lessons learned from our experience and how to apply it yourself

    • Three Takeaways

    1. Creating clear expectations and SOP's is the only way to have success with offshore assistants. 
    2. Be diligent and patient when hiring. Make sure you have a process in place for evaluating talent. 
    3. Your offshore team should be a supplement to your local team and do basic tasks to start and grow over time.
