Episode description

Most people screw up VA hiring, not because they pick the wrong person…

…but because they don’t have a system.

In this training, Mike and Chris break down the 3 proven models for hiring virtual assistants.

Agency, recruiter, and self-hire.

Plus the crucial 4R framework you need before bringing anyone on.

Whether you’ve got 5 properties or 100+, this is the training that saves you from wasted money, broken systems, and constant turnover.

What you’ll learn:

• The 3 types of VA hiring models (and when to use each)

• The biggest reason your VA won’t work out (it’s not what you think)

• How to build a talent pipeline that scales with your portfolio

• When to hire for skills vs culture fit

• Bonus: Where to find agency + recruiting referrals we actually trust
