In this segment of the YouTube video, Nathan Payne explains the hiring strategy his wholesaling team adopted five years ago for virtual assistants. Instead of opting for low‑cost overseas workers at $3‑$5 per hour, they chose to pay American college graduates $15 per hour, believing that native‑accent, conversational ability would improve performance. He outlines the philosophy behind this higher‑pay approach, cites the perceived benefits of U.S. assistants, and mentions specific team members: Frank, who helped after his day job, and the paid assistants Steve and Blake. The narrative provides insight into cost‑benefit considerations, team composition, and the values guiding their staffing decisions.

Chapters

And what we decided to pay them 5 years ago was $15 an hour. Okay. Because we're like, okay, if you get a virtual assistant, maybe you can pay them like $3 or $4 or $5 an hour. Depends where you go in the Philippines or South America, Pakistan, wherever you want. But we were like, okay, we could pay $4 or $5 an hour or we could pay $15 to these college graduates or our friends that we met in college that are American. They have— they don't have accents. Maybe they will do better because they, you know, they're American and they know how to carry on a conversation. So that was our philosophy around paying them more money. We're like, okay, we can do $15 an hour. So we ended up doing that. And we had another guy named Frank who would come and he would just come after his other job and he would call for us too. But again, we weren't, we weren't paying him. We were just paying Steve and Blake.
