What is one thing that seems like you never have enough of every single day? Time, especially as a real estate agent who is building a business, maintaining a household, and trying to find peace of mind by the end of the day.

A virtual assistant might be able to give you peace of mind, and our special guest, Justin Berry, will tell you how. Join us in this wonderful conversation with the founder of Hire Today VA, and hear how a VA can help you run your real estate business.

Meet Justin Berry

• Justin joined the real estate industry as an appraiser over 20 years ago, hoping it would fuel his dream of being in a rock band. Over time, he realized he wasn't going to get the freedom he desired and decided to start his own real estate business, thanks to the help of his lovely wife.
• After watching his wife spend all day on his emails and become stressed, he decided to hire a VA to help her out. Surprisingly, it did wonders for her health, and the VA was able to streamline their real estate business.
• Now, he helps business owners buy back their time by building remote teams that actually work. Through Hire Today VA, he strives to empower others to make their dreams come true without sacrificing precious time at home.

The Unique Advantage of Hire Today VA

• The thing about being a real estate agent is that you want to be able to do everything because you believe that you're the only one who can do it right. However, this is why you're stressing out so much!
• Wouldn't it be nice to be able to hire someone at a decent rate who can take care of the administrative work of running a business? The problem is, when you hire friends or old clients, they don't commit to the task. You take all the time to train them, but they leave within six months or a year.
• The States tend to see administrative work as not real work, but individuals in other countries love it! This is what makes Justin's company stand out from others: he finds Virtual Assistants from different countries who have four-year degrees and real experience to help real estate owners relieve stress.
• There's talent all over the world, so don't just limit yourself to finding someone who can help you find more hours in your days in the States.

Behind the Scenes of Justin's Company

• Justin shares why there are downsides to hiring a virtual assistant from Fiverr and Upwork. Usually, these individuals aren't committed to helping your business grow and are only there for a short time. Using a platform like his allows you to find someone who will be there for years to come, like his assistant, Ann.
• He also details Hire Today VA's onboarding system for assistants and business owners. His wife and Ann provide a corporate-level experience by helping owners find the right assistant and run their businesses in a way that works for them. Assistants receive 75 hours of training in QuickBooks, sales, and social media.

"As an employer, you want to be able to build space so that people can build a dream inside your dream." - Justin Berry.
