Half our full-time team is Filipinos now.
They are amazing talent at an amazing price.
We pay them all around $1,000/month.
They work hard, learn fast, and do what they say they'll do.
I'd love to help some other people hire abroad and onboard with confidence. Want some help?
Shoot me a message if interested.

@colin - The challenge i've heard from a few smaller business owners is that the virtual VA/Employees don't stay and they will leave without communicating why. Its probably a money thing. I'm just curious what the feedback has been from some of your customers regarding VA retention?

I've had bad luck hiring out of the Phillipines. Pakistan and India seem to be on the come up IMO.
