Short excerpt from a YouTube conversation (Tim Frey + another speaker) offering practical advice on hiring and keeping virtual assistants (VAs). Key points: VAs can be trained to perform almost any task; a common mistake is expecting a high-skill, high-pay level while only offering low pay (e.g., looking for a "$100/hour" VA at $5/hour). Recommended approach: hire affordably, invest in training, and grow the VA into a high-performing employee over time.

I didn't expect her to be five star, amazing, run customer service like a boss, like all the things in her first month. And that's where so many people go wrong. Their expectations are like $100 an hour employee, and they're willing to pay 5. And there's just a massive mismatch. There's.
