5 So there I was, working 100 hours a week online and I thought, We were supposed to come online to make ourselves free. Well, there was nothing freeing about what I was doing, it was like working 2 full time regular jobs. I told myself, this ends now! I seen about how you can get VA s, outsourcing everywhere, but I had no idea where to start.

6 I went on to hire my first assistant, the next month my business grew massively just within the first month. Being able to free myself from the everyday small tasks that there is no way we should be touching or doing, to moving onto the thinker and idea maker of my company. This allowed me to come up with new ideas and implement them quickly. Within a few months the 5 hour work week became a 100% reality to me. You cannot imagine how it feels to go from 100 to 5 hours a week, yet make more money. And this isn t just some fluke that happened, like, 1 week I worked 5 hours...or 1 month or 6 months. In fact, I ve been working 5 hours a week for over 4 years straight now. You see once you learn how to free yourself, you can then spend time doing the things that you really love to do, and for me that is traveling. I travel all year as long as I have an internet connection 5 hours a week, I m 100% fine.

7 Oh how I wish someone forced me to get a virtual assistant years ago! I would have making money online and much more of it so much faster. I wouldn t have sat in the dark room on my computer 16 hours a day trying to figure out how to make money online. You see, once you have an assistant working for you online, you can take any idea or course you may buy and have them implement it right away. Most problem with people making money online is NOT the fact that they don t have any ideas, I bet you have 20 in your head right now about things you would like to do online. What limits people from making money online is time and technical skills. Both of which an assistant should be doing for you. Only 5 hours a week, that s what I want your goal to be. To only work 5 hours per week. All of this trying to learn to build a website on your own, setting up sales funnels, customer service, filling orders, setting up a domain etc should NOT be done by you, it stops now.

8 In this guide I m going to be showing you how to get a virtual assistant, (VA), how much to pay, where to hire and tons of other tips and tricks that I had to spent tons of time learning, so now you don t have to. 5 hours a week, no matter what bull crap you may have heard, how it s impossible, it can t be done, it s all a lie. I m here to tell you 100%, it s possible, and I ve done it for the past 4 years straight. So i know how it can be done, I ve proven it.

9 The Biggest Objection So the biggest objection I hear from people when I tell them they need to get an assistant is, I don t even have a business online yet, I have no idea what I am going to have them do. This should be the number 1 reason you get a VA! When you are at this stage, as I once was, you have pretty much a new idea every single day, you are buying a new course every day, not getting anything done, jumping from one thing to the next. This ends now!

10 ! Work 1 Hour Example: You get a new course that shows you how to rank videos online. You read the course and it shows you how to rank videos, make the video, upload it properly and create a sales funnel from it. Remember, you are the idea maker, not the video uploader, not the funnel creator. Solution: You give your VA a copy of the course, you both read it, once done you have the VA do all the annoying things in there. Perhaps you come up with the area to do videos in, let s say golf. So you say, VA, I want you to perform every step exactly as it is shown in the course, I want you create a youtube account for me, create 5 different videos exactly how it s shown, upload them, create the sales funnel and sequence etc etc.

11 You now can just check in on their progress for 15 minutes daily to see how they are doing. Imagine how many videos they can get done and ranking doing this 20 or 40 hours a week. And you know if you tried to do this yourself, you would maybe get 1 video uploaded, not follow every step, say it doesn t work, then move onto the next thing. But with a VA, they could develop a full business for you, they could build golf videos, get them ranking, set up a facebook fan page, build fans for it, set up a golf website, you can get a couple solid courses on SEO and paid traffic, saying VA, I want you to study these courses on SEO and I want you to implement them on our new golf site. I want you to engage the people on our list 5 times a week and update the golf fan page on facebook 3 times a day, just as it s showing in the courses.

12 You see how quickly you can grow your business once you focus on one area and have a VA handling all the labor for you. Now you see why I was spending 16 hours a day online, learning on my own how to set up wordpress, set up funnels, reading tons of courses on ranking videos, PPC, SEO, etc etc etc It stops for you now, and your 5 hour work weeks starts today. Hopefully by now I ve convinced you to get a VA and to get one tonight. So your next question would probably be, Where do I get one? From my own country? America? India?

13 The Philippines You may have noticed lately that pretty much every single call center in the world is sending all of their calls to the Philippines. I am talking huge billion dollar companies and banks trusting their customers to the nation of 7,000 islands. Rest assured they know what they are doing, and so do I. So why should you hire from there also?

14 They speak fluent English, so fluent that I bet if you call your bank right now, phone company etc, you won t even know they are from the Philippines. English is one of their official national languages. I ve been to the Philippines many times; English is everywhere, from billboards, movies to radio. It s taught in every elementary school thru college. They are fluent with great accents.

15 ! Work 1 Hour They are super loyal. They will be very happy and proud to have an employer who works overseas, and even tell their friends how their boss is from X country. It s very important in their culture that they take care of their family, so when they find a job they often stick with it, not bouncing around from one job to the next every 6 months like I use to do.

16 Filipinos are Friendly. Well, that s pretty much an understatement. Having travelled to many countries in the world, I often meet other world travelers; they ALL tell me the same thing. Out of all the countries they have been to, the Philippines by far has the most friendly and down to earth people they have met. To them, they don t care about showing off cars, houses etc, what s most important to them is being able to provide for their family.

17 So when you talk to them you will find they are very down to Earth and do not have an attitude and are almost always positive. Great, great people to work with. Hiring In the USA vs. the Philippines I have hired both, many Americans and many Filipinos. The winner? Filipinos, though I did have some awesome American employees for sure.

18 Overall though, the Filipinos worked harder for much less pay. The average starting wage to hire someone from the Philippines on is going to be about $2 per hour. In America you re looking at about $10 per hour. American worker - 40 hours: $400 week/$1600 month/$19,200 year Filipino Worker - 40 hours: $80 week/$320 month/$3840 year We are talking saving over $15,000 a year by going with a hard working, college educated, fluent in English worker that will probably work harder than an American employee.

19 That could be $15,000 in profit for you or hire 5 full time workers for the price of 1 American. You may say how I can trust them, I can even see them. Again, get some kind of time tracking software. It would be the same for an American team, unless you re going to rent an office and have all kinds of crazy expenses, they will work from home also. Outsourcing to the Philippines is no doubt the way to go.

20 How To Pay? So you got your first VA, they ve worked 40 hours for you, how do you pay them? The best thing you can do is pay them via PayPal. Everyone I ve ever hired online in the Philippines has had a PayPal account and I m sure you do as well. If not you can get one here: I pay my people weekly, always have. You may have seen some guys on job posting saying they will pay once per month. Most Filipinos I have worked with have done work for overseas people and have not been paid at some point. They will work for entire month for someone, and then they guy just bails on them.

21 So to keep that doubt out of their mind, just pay them once a week, and not upfront. Image how happy you have been if you have ever gotten weekly pay vs every 2 weeks or monthly. I ve had it before, most of my jobs before working online, I barely made enough to get by, so when a job offered me weekly pay it was a huge bonus knowing I have money coming in every single week. Let s go Hire a VA today So you know how much to pay, what country to hire from, but where to you find them?

22 I ve hired people from pretty much everywhere online, from massive sites like monster.com in the US to places like upwork, formally odesk and similar places. The BEST place I have ever hired my Filipino VA s from is a site called OnlineJobs.ph There are over 150,000 people from the Philippines looking for work there. The difference between a site like this and Upwork is that they are looking for full or part-time jobs. When you try to hire people from fiverr and Upwork, you will get people that have 10 jobs at once working for 9 different people at once. You want your own. You want someone dedicated to your work and will report to only you and know that they will be there for you.

23 If I have a difficult, let s say programming job, I will go to places like Upwork to get someone, but for my part and full time VA s I ONLY go to onlinejobs. This is where I got my first VA and all of mine after that. There is such a good talented pool in there. I don t care if you are looking for just a simple VA, a world class programmer, call center agent, team leader, you can find them there. Some of the biggest online guys and online companies you know use people from the Philippines, just ask. If you haven t seen the step by step guide on how to set up your account and post your job or hire from OnlineJobs.ph, you can check it out on the download page here.

24 Hiring more than 1 VA So I want you to start with one, once you get them going and running, if they are good you can have them hire and train the next one for you. What I have done and have worked extremely well. I will ask them if they have any friends looking for jobs with similar skills that they do. And they all know people. Tell them to hire them and train them, you could do a quick 5 minute interview on Skype also if you wanted.

25 This brings back huge amounts of time to you, so you don t have to worry about finding someone and training them again. Remember the scenario I gave earlier about your VA going thru setting up videos, websites, funnels, your current VA will already know the exact process to do. Just have them pass that on to the next, you can now double your output and possibly your revenue each time you do this.

26 Don t Steal My Business! I get this one a lot, They will steal my business ideas and run! You mean the same way you stole past business ideas of all the people you use to work at a regular job and created your own empire cloning their model?

27 Exactly. In the Philippines they are not only extremely honest, but they are actually more work for someone minded then people in America, UK etc. Like 99% of people, they just want their weekly pay coming in, to do their job and go home. There are actually few people like me and you that are willing to put our time in money in something different and extra in hopes that it will bring us something big. Just like people in America, they go to work, come home and that s it. I have never even come close to one of my VA s trying to clone my biz and run off. Funny thing is I ve had both American and Filipino people working for me. I ve told them personally, I said, If you ever needed help with making money on your own online, I ll be happy to help you out or give you some tips etc. All of them said no I don t want to start my own business, I just like working for others and that s it.

28 So fear not on this one. If you do have some trade secrets or would like to do a nondisclosure agreement there are many online you can get and just have a lawyer review them if you are worried about it.

29 Keep In Touch Ya ll come back now ya here This is one of the biggest things, make sure, make sure, make sure they are updating you every single day with what they did for they day. This keeps them in the rhythm of always letting you know what s going on, and so you can see the progress daily.

30 You can either have them you at the end of their shift every day, or just have let s say a Google doc where they enter their tasks for the day and maybe thoughts as well. Then you won t have to bother with s everyday and just check the spreadsheet at your own will. Make sure you tell them, if there is ever a problem just let me know it s ok if you messed something up, we can always fix it, I won t get mad, just let me know.

31 Training You don t have to find someone that knows everything. Would you rather work with someone that was lazy and unmotivated, doesn t always get things done on time and is late, but knew everything? Or someone who was very smart always dependable, maybe not know everything about building a website, but is always there and will learn how quickly? I will choose the 2nd, every.single time.

32 So when hiring, it s ok to me if they don t let s say, know how to change the color of a wordpress site s background. I know they are smart and learn fast, they can just Google or Youtube the question and find out how to do it.!

33 Keep Track of Time Time, is on our side - the Rolling Stones So, want to know EXACTLY what your VA is doing all day. How do you know they are really working and not just on youtube watching rabbits doing backflips? Monitor them, and be open about it. Simply tell them you want them to install a program that will track their time and activities. This will be so we can make sure we are operating in the most proficient manner and to evaluate how you are doing from time to time. It will also track your hours. Do NOT tell them, Oh you need to install this tracking software on your computer cause I don t trust that you will work. I use the time tracking software called Time Doctor. ===screenshots, how to use etc, what it does==

34

35 Tools of the Trade Time Doctor Great time tracking software, have your VA install this, will do screenshots of their work, document their time and make sure they stay productive. Google Docs

36 Free easy way instead of sending documents back and forth via etc. Example, say you have a spreadsheet where you are always updating it with customers and their status etc. With Google Docs you can just edit it, and it saves then the other person can just log in and see what has been updated. OnlineJobs.ph The number 1 place to hire part and full time VA s.

37 techsmith.com Jing Super easy to use screen capture and video recording, it s also free.

38 ! Work 1 Hour Example, say your VA built you a website, but you want some things changed and moved around. Instead of trying to write what you have to say, it s much better to see it visually by capturing with a screen shot, using arrows and annotations etc to describe it better, I use this all the time. PayPal The best way to pay your VA, for sure avoid things like Western Union etc.

39 Popplet Something I ve used for many years now, super easy to easy diagram idea builder. Free also, must check it out. In the office or on the go, professionals use Popplet to generate ideas and plan projects. Used to brainstorm or jot down notes, Popplet helps professionals organize their thoughts and generate their next big idea.

40 SKYPE I use Skype for interviews, by the way I've never done a web cam or voice interview, it's up to you though, either way is fine, unless you need customer service over the phone etc. To kind of break the awkwardness in the beginning, don't just get right into business. Ask them where they live in the Philippines, what's their favorite food there etc.

41 If you just use a couple phrases from their language, they will be VERY happy and excited. Remember you want them to be excited and want them to work for you. They may have two other offers already waiting. Some Filipino phrases you can use when typing: Salamat: thank you Kamusta: how are you Magandang umaga: good morning Magandang hapon: good afternoon Magandang gabi: good evening Hindi: no Oo: yes

42 (I've travelled to the Philippines a few times, so I know some of their language and dialects) --Here is a list of some questions you can ask: How long have you been working online? What hours and days are you available to work? What is your requested salary?-(this is just a request, just because they put 15,000 monthly, doesn't mean they won't accept starting off at 12,000 etc) Do you have your own computer? Do you have a stable internet connection in yourhouse? Do you have a laptop? Can we contact your last employer, when did you partwith them? What is your long term goal in life? Where did you graduate college?

43 What did you study in college? Why do you like working online, instead of a regularjob? --If you already have a business going, ask them specifics about it: Example, have you ever done marketing, do you know how to set up a squeeze page, are familiar with wordpress.

44 Make sure you tell them about how you pay weekly, how you will quickly raise salary with good performance and give bonuses a lot.you want them to choose you as the employee if you like them. Also it will get them wanting to do a good job for you right away. Example, for myself I can tell them I've sent my team on a vacation all expenses paid, they have received gifts such as tablets, phones and many many bonuses, so be assured if you work strong and hard for us, you will be rewarded beyond your standard salary. When I seen how much money and profits my assistants were bringing into me, there's no way I could with a clear mind not give them bonuses and thank them for all they are doing, I certainly didn't want to lose them!

45 The kind of work you can give your assistant to do. SEO Backlinking, forum posting, site structure, off and onsite SEO, website optimization

46 Video Video creation form start to finish, uploading to various sites like YouTube and Vimeo, making video SEO ready, adding video to your website, facebook pages Sales pages Creating custom sales page, or working off a template, adding images, buy now buttons, sales copy, redirecting to thank you page Paid advertising Managing your ppc for adwords, facebook, twitter, bing and more.

49 DropShipping/Shopify Have them run 99% of your store like I do, I have them fill orders, talk to the supplier, facebook ads, customer service, add products to the store and more, DON T do all of this yourself! This is just a very small list of a few areas online and some tasks associated with them. I just wanted to put some areas out there to give you some ideas about what your outsourcee can do for you.
