Atiba Souza -- Outsourcing: Transforming Businesses, Transforming Lives

Atiba Souza, speaking on a YouTube video hosted by John Jonas, explains three advantages of hiring overseas via OnlineJobs.ph (especially in the Philippines): (1) meaningful economic impact at the household level for hires, (2) strengthening and protecting company culture, and (3) access to top 1% talent globally. He notes his company has been virtual since 2013, expanded internationally about three years ago, and now employs 32 OFSs across five divisions. Souza thanks John Jonas for enabling these hiring opportunities and emphasizes how outsourcing can transform businesses and lives.

Hi, I'm Atiba. The video content Superman with Client Attraction Pros. And we've been using online jobs to hire for the last three years. Now, our company, we've been virtual since 2013, so we've been doing it a very long time. But we were virtual strictly in the US and it was really about three years ago that we started looking internationally. And I want to just share with you a couple things with you today. Actually, three things that I want to share with you today about the advantages specifically of ofs in the Philippines and online jobs in particular. I'll start here. As an employer. This is an opportunity for you to make a meaningful impact in what I consider the global economy. Right? Yes, sure. You're not changing the GDP of an entire country, but you are of households. So it's a great opportunity for you because, hey, employee costs are super high. This gives you an opportunity to control your employee costs at a much lower rate, but at a rate that's still really great for the employees that you're hiring. And you make a major, major impact. We've had ofs who have sent their family members to school who couldn't go to school. Heck, we had one ofs who didn't even have a working fridge and because of the salary we paid her, she was able to buy a fridge. We've had ofss who have moved out of one room homes into actual homes with bedrooms. You're making a major, major impact. So that's number one. Number two. Number two thing here is culture. Number two thing is the culture. And the culture is super, super important because let's face it, if you don't have good company culture, it's only so long your company will actually last. And as the owner of this company instilling culture, here's what I found when I found the right ofss, when I found the right people through online jobs, they came in and they latched onto our company culture and then they protected that company culture. Then when new ofss joined the team, they were the ones who championed our company culture even louder than me, and I'm pretty loud, y', all, and made sure that everybody got in line and stayed in line. And when someone was out of line or someone didn't fit, they made sure to bring it to me and say, hey, look, this person's got to go. That's major in helping you manage your team and grow your team. And ofss are great at that. And the third thing, and I'm going to quote Dennis Yu here, who's also a huge champion of OFSs and online jobs is this. You're getting to hire the best of the best. You know, in traditional settings, you only hire people who are close to wherever your business is. Working with online jobs, working with ofss, you can go and hire people who are in the top 1% of their craft to come in and work for you. That changes the output that you can make in your company. That changes what your company can do. So don't just look at this as, oh, I'm just hiring a bunch of virtual assistants, because that's not what it is at all. You're not just hiring a bunch of to do people. You're hiring people who are. When you find the right ones, and that's the key, you go and you can search and find the right ones. You hire people who are in the top 1% of what they do, and they make major, major impact in your company. Now, listen, like I said, it's been three years for me. We're now we have 32 OFSS, over five divisions of our company. You think I'm invested a little. Yeah. Love it. You know, and I thank John Jonas. He's been on my podcast, and I thanked him. Then I'm going to thank him here again. Thank you for what you've done. Thank you for allowing us to affect the lives of 32 individuals in the Philippines. Thank you to all of the other companies that you've also allowed to affect lives of individuals in the Philippines. I'm telling y', all, this will change your business.
