  • Dedicated to making you better at outsourcing. Tips, tricks, advice, and stories on how to get work off your plate and be more efficient. I do things differently. I don't hire "freelancers". I don't pay hourly. Those are for the masses who are struggling to figure out how outsourcing works well.

  • Ep. 432: Removing complexity when hiring OFS
    Nov 25 2024


    We tend to overcomplicate things, especially hiring.
    The reasons people have why they're not hiring yet, even though they need to, is the same. It hasn't changed over the years.
    At the end of the day, they're all rooted in fear. It's fear that you need to overcome if you want to change your life.
    Let's talk about that in this episode.

  • Ep. 431: Should you hire family members of OFS?
    Nov 1 2024

    I actually hire family members of my OFS team.
    I don't always do it. They go through my hiring steps like anybody else. If they're not good enough, I don't hire them.
    Also, your OFS won't want to recommend a family member who might be bad for the business. They know they'll lose face if that person doesn't do well.
    Let's talk more about it in this episode.

  • Ep. 430: Don't prepay for work
    Oct 30 2024

    There's a reason why I often remind people NOT to pre-pay for work.
    You should pay for a test task, but once you hire someone, don't pre-pay for the work they'll do.
    If they ask you to pre-pay for work, that's usually a red flag.
    Instead, you should pay them every week, at least at the beginning. This allows you to build trust without having to pay them in advance.
    Let's talk more about this in this episode.
