You’ll never find “the best” VA

“John, I need to find the best VA.”
This isn’t what you want to hear, but…
You’ll never find the BEST VA/EA/OFS.
It’s not just you. To be completely honest, I have never found a perfect Online Filipino Specialist. I’ve hired good ones. I’ve hired great ones. Most of the people I have hired have gotten better over the years.
But they never start out as perfect or the best.
They’re never going to be perfect, but a lot of them are going to end up “the best”.
Becoming “the best” takes time, and takes getting to know you. And even then…the best people on my team make mistakes and have off days.
But because I’ve worked with them for years, we trust each other, they’re loyal and dedicated to their jobs, and their off days are few and far between.
And then there’s you. You’re not perfect. You?make mistakes. But the more you work with someone, the fewer mistakes you’ll make.
If you hold out of hiring because you’re waiting for someone amazing, extraordinary, or perfect, you’ll never find them.
I’ve built my amazing team through hard work, trial and error, patience, and communication.
Finding a good Filipino worker is simple. It’s the journey with you that makes them the best.
Julia, who wrote most of this newsletter, started off great. ?Now, she’s the best.
You don’t hire the best. You create the best.
Same thing applies to teams. You don’t hire a great team. You create a great team.
