Welcome to the Secret Sauce of Outsourcing podcast that's dedicated to making you better at working with OFS online Filipino specialists. This is episode 281, what happens when you hire your second OFS? So usually I would talk about hiring your first OFS. Today I want to talk about hiring your second OFS, because when you hire your second OFS, the process just becomes easier. At that point, you've already gone through the hiring, so hiring is a lot easier. You know what to write in your job posts. You know how to onboard someone. You know what to expect when they come on board. You know what to expect with paid time off and holidays and paying them. At this point, if you post your job and you don't get a whole bunch of applicants, you can probably figure it out that like, oh, if I post my job again, I'll probably get more applicants or maybe I need to search onlinejobs ph to find skills of people instead of just posting a job at this point. Also, if you get too many applicants, you have a pretty good idea of how to weed them out. You understand what to do now to get rid of the bad ones and to keep the good ones and how to interview them and how not to interview them. Now, hopefully with your first ofs, you have gotten a really good idea of what kind of person you're looking for. With your second one, you understand strengths and weaknesses and you know where your business is and you know what, you know what that first person has done for your business and you're really ready to bring on a second person to add to what's going on. All of this is why people who successfully hire one ofs almost always end up hiring a second one and probably a third and growing their team and building their business. I see this every day. People who have hired one person, they're coming back for a second or they now have three or four or five and they're coming back for another. They email me and they let me know, thank you so much for what happened to me four years ago or six months ago or 12 years ago when I hired my first OFS. Now I have this team and this many people and this is what they've done for me. People who successfully hire one person almost always end up hiring a second one because it's good for business. But all of this is only possible if you hire your first, and hiring your first takes a leap. So here's what I want you to do. If you haven't hired your first OFS, number one, go read ofsguide.com ofsguide.com it's like a four minute read and it will answer all of your questions and get rid of any sticking points you have. Then after that, go use 1vaoa.com, which is me walking you through finding an amazing person that's going to work for you. Someone who's going to show up, someone who's going to be talented, someone who's going to be honest with you and loyal. Someone who's going to have the skills that you need to grow your business. I'm going to walk you through finding that person@1vaaway.com and better than all that, I'm going to make the first person and the second and third and everyone you hire. After that much, much of a faster recruiting process than what you're going to do on your own. Prob the first time. It's going to take you very little time. It's going to be so much easier than you think. Saving you time, saving you effort, preventing you from making mistakes. The whole thing should be really, really easy.
