You’ve spent days of research trying to decide whether you should hire a remote worker in the Philippines or not. Are you ready to hire your first virtual assistant now?
If you’re still undecided about hiring one, why? And if you’ve already decided to hire but can’t find the right one yet, what’s taking you so long?
We understand the uncertainty. We’ve heard so many reasons for not being ready to hire a remote staff yet. Trusting a remote worker’s reliability, taking the risk of sharing important information about your business, and encountering potential issues with technical stuff – these are all valid concerns. Even the difference in time zone is a factor. Some employers may even be concerned about issues that may arise due to miscommunication.
But remember that you won’t achieve the time freedom that you’ve always dreamed of unless you take the first step: hire someone.
Why Hire a Remote Worker in the Philippines
Consider the following benefits of delegating to an online Filipino specialist (OFS):
- They can take over the more time-consuming tasks, which then frees you up to work on the more strategic aspects of growing your business.
- You gain access to specialized skills that are either not available locally or can be quite expensive.
- You can train them to do all the things that you do for your business and more! A lot of Filipino VAs have flexible skills, and they always appreciate the chance to upskill. So even if you take the risk of hiring an inexperienced VA, you can for sure mold them into the perfect assistant for your business.
If you can’t take our word for it, then consider this: most of our remote staff at Onlinejobs.ph have been with us for almost two decades now! That’s no easy feat knowing how easy it is for remote workers to jump from one client to another, especially when they’ve already gained high-level skills. And make no mistake about this: most of our veteran staff are highly skilled. This is why they have moved on from the VA role to handling managerial or high-expertise duties now. They’re the biggest reason why we have the time to go backpacking, play golf, enjoy a 17-hour workweek, and have time for family.
But finding the right people wasn’t easy when we first started.
We learned this from first-hand experience and many rounds of trial and error. And we simplified the entire selection process for employers. You don’t have to make the same (often costly) mistakes that we did when hiring OFS in our early years. The risks that you take now are far simpler: how do you select the right person for the job?
