    Just hired my first VA for a small batch of lead gen. My mind is blown! Now I can spend my time on more high-leverage activities. Thanks for the great video, Dan.

    Hi Dan. The key to outsourcing is definitely to initially train staff. Then, having clear and concise instructions is a key way to making sure staff do what you want them to do. The best free tool that works on both Windows and Mac for video training purposes is Jing. Training via video is crucial as it allows staff to follow on screen while describing tasks so that it is thoroughly understood. Great intro video to outsourcing!

      Kyle Comino give one of them access to your inbox. Have them filter and only tag/label stuff that you need to be involved in. That's next level.

    Just starting with a virtual assistant. The plan I selected allows me to use my project management software. It’s been a slow start due to not suing their system, but I think it makes sense in the end. It would be fine to use their software for now, but as we scale, I think it would be a mistake. There has been a little confusion about who’s assigned to what, but I think we got through that after a couple days. Also, we’re using a pool with a dedicated manager. It would be preferable to have. Dedicated assistant, but we’re not ready for that.
    Thoughts from those who are more experienced with using VAs?

    You mention tools you use to manage the VA but I don't see them listed in the description of the video. Can you share what they are? I like that you mention DOD your process sounds very Kanban-ish. Thanks for sharing the content.

      Adolfo Foronda the tools I use are:
      - Playbook (SOP's / documented processes)

    Need a virtual assistant? Hired one in the past to be disappointed? You were probably missing these 4 critical things.

      Dan Martell this is so awesome as you know we are growing fast this is the top thing on my mind right now. Where do I fin a VA? Any recommendation. Have you tried zirtual?

      Hi Sam, my agency creates opportunities for clients to get away from 'grunt work' every day tasks. Dan would likely agree that training is by far the most important part of outsourcing and delegation. If you train someone they will know how to do what you do, and really there's no way around it. It's all about how you pay attention to your staff. You get what you put in.

    Hi Dan! Thanks for the video! You convinced me that I need a VA. :)
    Regarding PW managers, I have been looking into different tools out there but have run into the same problem with each of them. There is no real way to hide a password. Anyone can simply 'inspect element' and see the password that you have shared with them though 1password, dashlane, etc. Any advice on this?

    • @alpineai
      @alpineai 28 днів тому

      Step 2 - start with delegating purchases!
      Step 3 - delegating research
      Step 4 - use an online project management tool

    Hi Dan, how exactly do you give access to your credit card or account so your VA can purchase things on your behalf - in places where they physically need to enter CC details and CVN ?
    What are the ways around proving full cc details ?
