So, today I want to share with you my number six lesson
I've learnt from being in business for over 30 years.
And this lesson's one of those big secrets from going
from a four or five digit hobby-sized business
to a six, seven, eight digit business and beyond.
Now this lesson is all about how to
grow your business by outsourcing and
hiring virtual assistants from one dollar per hour.
Now, just so we're on the same page, the term outsourcing
means getting work done in a different location
from where you're physically located now.
In the online industry, the term outsourcing
it's normally referred to as using staff in locations
around the planet where the cost of labor is much less
than in first-world countries like
in Australia, USA, Canada, UK et cetera.
In fact, I'm going to be showing you exactly where
you can get staff from one dollar per hour.
And just before we get into that, and again
so we're on the same page, the term virtual assistant
means a person that works for you from,
again, a remote virtual location.
Most virtual assistants that you use are in countries like,
say the Philippines, and the majority work from their homes.
You see, that's why they're called virtual assistants.
In the industry though, virtual assistants they're
normally referred to as VAs, which of course
is an acronym for virtual assistant.
So now we're on the same page, like I mentioned before
in the beginning, outsourcing is one of my favorite topics
simply because implementing VAs, or virtual assistants,
gives you back time in your life that you can do
other things that give you the most pleasure.
You know, that can be you know from picking up the kids
from school, sleeping in for as long as you like
on any day of the week, or taking long holidays.
And today we're blessed that we can literally
buy an hour of life for one dollar per hour.
And these hours that you buy back can be used to
either leverage the time to build you business much faster
and/or to give some time off to do things in life that,
you know, give you the most joy that you love the most.
Bottom line is, if you can do work on your business
that makes more than one dollar per hour, you should be
outsourcing that work to one dollar an hour staff or a VA,
which basically, so you can generate a lot more than,
per hour then you do in one dollar.
It's the same principle with getting a cleaner
for your house or your car, if you can make more money
per hour doing something else, then you
should be outsourcing the cleaning work.
I call this the hundred dollar per hour work because,
as you grow your business you should only be doing work
that generates a hundred dollars plus per hour,
and you should be outsourcing the rest.
And then there's my favorite, the
thousand dollar per hour work.
You know, think about it.
Looking back in your life, when did you get
those great ideas in your life?
Was it when you were you flat out, head down at work?
Or did you get those great ideas standing in the shower,
lying in bed in the morning before you wake up,
or sorry, after you wake up but before you get up,
or while doing your favorite hobby?
Or were you on holidays?
Most people get those great ideas, or as we call them,
the thousand dollar per hour ideas when they're relaxing,
doing something totally different from work
and not even thinking about work.
This is the thousand dollar per hour work and this is why
it's so crucial to take time off, to enjoy your hobbies,
spend time with your family, and crucial to take holidays.
This is when you get those great
thousand dollar per hour ideas.
Now, anybody that's been following me for some time knows
my favorite hobby in life is building radio controlled,
building and flying radio controlled planes.
And I can't tell you how many times I've had great ideas
come to me while I've been driving to flying events,
at flying events, and spending time
in the shed building model planes.
And the crazy thing is I'm not thinking
about anything at all to do with work.
Nothing, nothing to do with work at all.
It's the same with most people.
That's why we regularly hear the phrase about
people having those great ideas in the shower.
This is why it's so critical to get away from work,
to take some time off, to enjoy life, and just
to get those thousand dollar per hour ideas.
And the best part is today we're absolutely blessed to have
instant access to virtual assistants all over the world.
Never before in the history of mankind
has it been easier to outsource your work.
If you can do it on a computer, you can record your screen
and get somebody else to do it from one dollar per hour.
Now, if you want to know more about where to get
virtual assistants from one dollar per hour,
and also how to train them, I've made a free step-by-step
PDF which you can download now,
which has all the links in them.
I prefer to do that than put the links on the screen
cause then people complain they have to get those links.
So I've made it a free PDF for you, and it shows
all the links, how to get them and where they are
and you can download it right now.
I'll put a link on the screen and also put it below.
I've made it as a PDF so I can continually
keep the PDF updated with the latest sources when required.
Anyway, that's all for this week.

Till next week, list more, sell more.
