This video is about me doing business in Norway. I find doing business in Norway extremely less complex than in other places. In Norway, most companies do not require you to wear a suit, you are fine to wear what you want. Norwegians are fairly honest and transparent. In terms of paying bills, I noticed […]

If you are on planet Earth, from time to time, you have to deal with negative people. When you have a new concept or a new idea, a lot of people will tell you ‘It’s not gonna work”, ‘that already exists’ or ‘why would it work for you?” These are just some of the elements […]

The type of confidence people think to succeed is very different from the type of confidence you should have to actually succeed. When starting a business, you have to believe in yourself but not limited to not making mistakes. If you feel very confident in a wrong way, expect that you will fail a bunch. […]

I believe that in business you have to have partnerships. The due diligence is really important. Typically, you are not the same type of person but you compliment each other. Just be honest with your partner, be real, say things as they are, don’t sugarcoat. Relationships should be a natural thing. Give it time, don’t […]

Listen in as Mark Podolsky, the Land Geek, talks to Erlend Bakke, MrOutsource.com, about working with Virtual Assistants from the Philippines. Mark talks about how he has gotten hooked on working with the well-trained MrOutsource.com team. Mark talks about his six-week experience working with the MrOutsource.com team. When Mark first dipped his toe into working with MrOutsource, he was a bit skeptical at first. He had some experience with other companies and they all left him wanting. Mark highlighted the fact that working with the team, he has gotten daily reports from the team with updates, questions, and clarifications. He has been happy with the communication between himself and the team, which made working with the team such a great experience. Mark's experience, working with the MrOutsource.com team has been wonderful for him. It has become a one-stop shop for his podcast. Right after he records each episode, the podcast is sent to the team, who would literally do everything with it. Erlend stressed that one year of doing podcasts has made this his team's core competence, making Mark a perfect fit. This has saved Mark some time and money. This also allowed Mark to focus on higher income—generating strategies. Working with Filipino Virtual Assistants, Erlend has had to emphasize during training that they shouldn't just say yes and be submissive. Another important report required of all the Virtual Assistants is their daily update, which includes What I Did Today, Challenges Encountered, and Questions I have for you. Among the parts of the report, Erlend recommends focusing on the third question, which require immediate attention. One of the simpler tools Erlend recommends everyone to use is the email. When asked about the prices, Erlend responded that connecting a Virtual Assistant with a client would cost $497. Then you get three candidates to choose from. The benefit of going throughMrOutsource.com is that the VA has a contract with the Filipino company, which means that if the VAs do something illegal, they can be sued in the Philippines. In addition, each applicant is also required to go through their seven-day training. You pay a 30% rate on top of whatever other rate, but you are secure knowing that you're working with trained and reliable VAs. Mark asked Erlend whether MrOutsource.com is going to eventually increase their prices now that he's hooked and how Erlend would maintain the quality of work when more and more clients avail of their services. Erlend responded that he intends to charge new clients more but keep prices the same for old clients. Perhaps if he were to consider an increase, he would increase his prices by the standard 4% per annum, depending on the inflation rate. Erlend emphasized that keeping his current clients happy will lead to a whole positive ecosystem of positive referrals. Taking care of the customers he already has will continue to be a priority for MrOutsource.com. Erlend mentioned learning his business philosophy from Keith Cunningham's course called the 4-Day MBA where he learned quite a few things. One of them was learning to take care of his clients before he'll consider raising the prices or going out to get more customers. When working with VAs, Erlend says it's incredibly important to be passionate because people are attracted to passionate people. You need to be excited about what you accomplish as a tem, especially when it comes to delegation and outsourcing. Those are the kinds of leaders people are attracted to. Being like Richard Branson, Erlend says that you need a vision, know how to joke around but also be serious. Outsourcing has allowed Erlend to do things that he enjoys. Since he is able to do the things he enjoys, he is able to be energetic and passionate at work. That way, he is able to attract people who are equally as passionate. These people he is attracting want to be part of his vision and his dream. He likens this to having weight on an entrepreneur's shoes but with the VAs, with their help, they can run together rather than walk slowly. To have fun and success in business, Erlend says if you have a passionate team that care about the same stuff, you will be successful. It shouldn't be all about money. Erlend also warns against greedy business partners. These are people you shouldn't be working with. The same goes for outsourcing. Employees who are driven by money and are opportunists will only play for the money. They're not adding to any value but rather just focused on getting a paycheck. A book by Adam Grant called Give and Take was read both by Mark and Erlend. It says that we all go through phases of matching, taking, and giving. We want to be more on the dominant side of giving because ultimately, you'll get more. The more you give, the more you get. You don't want to be a giver all the time. There are people you want to be matching with. If you give me an apple, I'll give you an apple. Mark says Erlend has done a phenomenal job hiring and training these givers and has somehow been able to crack the code of giving this kind of service. Tips of the Week: Register for the live webinar with Erlend and myself next Wednesday April 6th at 12:30PM and learn how to generate $20k a month thanks to outsourcing: Registration URL: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/4289649331852387073Webinar ID: 108-432-995   Erlend: I was reading about getting up in the morning and suggests that as soon as you get out of bed, you stand tall, confident, with your shoulders back and your head held high. Then, you reach up your arms a little bit upwards, like a 45- degree angle, and you welcome the day. After that, you make your bed. After that, you're done with your first task of the day. That would make you feel really good. Also, as soon as your alarm goes off, you start counting down from 10 inside your head. Then you get up before it goes to zero.

Listen in as Mark and Erlend talk about: Managing your business, travelling, working smarter Knowing how to handle and motivate employees, morning routines, and; Avoiding the trap of being a business prisoner. Unlike most of his colleagues in the US and worldwide, Erlend focuses on honing down on tasks he should be doing and spending time on work that motivates him.  On finding the right Virtual Assistants to help him with his business, Erlend's philosophy is to know what drives them, aligning with what they want to achieve, and being emotionally involved with them. Erlend also suggests we ask VAs three important questions: what kind of experiences do you want to have, how do you want to grow as a person and how you want to contribute, to find out if they are a perfect fit in your business.
