In this episode, Molly sits down with John Jonas, the founder of Onlinejobs.ph, to discuss the transformative impact that hiring Filipino workers can have on businesses, especially law firms.

Finding the right talent can be one of the most complex parts of running a business. But in today's working environment, business owners have access to a global talent pool! In this episode, John Jonas talks about the advantages of broadening your hiring horizons, why content creation is his main focus, and the value of outsourcing work as quickly as possible.  About John Jonas:John started his career as a programmer and worked for several companies before realizing that his true passion was in building his own business. He created OnlineJobs.ph, the largest marketplace for finding Filipino workers, with almost 2,000,000 Filipino profiles in the database. To date, John has helped thousands of entrepreneurs succeed by teaching them how to replace themselves through outsourcing. Episode highlights: Don't give up. You might have to deal with multiple failures and very challenging obstacles on your entrepreneurial journey (for John, this was his struggle to find the talent he was looking for), but if you really believe in your mission, just keep pushing through! (04:05) To grow a business, you have to be willing to work through the really difficult problems. This often requires the combined skillsets of a visionary and an integrator. As the visionary, John's role is to think about the things that are hard to think about. As the integrator, his partner's role is to run with that and find solutions. (13:31) Knowing that you can always find the talent that you need is a very freeing realization. If you open up your talent pool, the opportunities for progress are endless. (15:26) It is possible to work 17 hours (or less) in a week; John is living proof of this! Part of how he is able to achieve this is by being fully committed to whatever task he is doing. When he's working, he is fully immersed in his work (and that means no social media distractions), and when he isn't working, he completely switches off from everything to do with his business. (18:21) Content is what drives the growth of a business. So, don't waste time doing “busy work” (like sending emails) and instead record podcasts, send out regular newsletters, and write blog posts. (21:07) Contrary to the traditional advice of “stick with what you're good at and outsource the rest,” John believes that as soon as you've mastered a skill to the point where you can teach someone else to do it, get that thing off your plate! This means you can focus on learning even more essential skills. (23:54) John's best advice for entrepreneurs:“As soon as you have something in your business that you know how to do, that you feel like you could teach someone else to do, hire someone else to do it. Get that thing off of your plate.” (23:45)Resources Mentioned: The Gap and the Gain by Dan Sullivan Ofstasks.com Ofsguide.com Onevaaway.com His Book: The Outsourcing Lever by John JonasDiscover the game-changing strategies of successful entrepreneurs in "The Outsourcing Lever" by John Jonas.

In this episode, Troy interviews John Jonas, founder of OnlineJobs.PH and a pioneer in outsourcing tasks to virtual workers. He's based near Salt Lake City, United States. After quitting his day job to work online and becoming overloaded with tasks, he decided to outsource tasks to free up time. Now liberated with the idea that he could delegate tasks to keep from burning out, he and his newly hired programmer started OnlineJobs with the goal of helping small business owners all over the world find hardworking virtual assistants in the Philippines. OnlineJobs was launched in 2009 and has seen 50% growth since its inception. It now has a total of 40 FTEs in the Philippines, recently hitting eight figures last year, maintaining a truly remarkable run. Combined with the concept of arbitrage and teaching how to utilize outsourcing differently, John has helped a lot of small business owners manage costs and get more done by introducing them to hard-working VAs in the Philippines and providing Filipinos with a way to support their families.  To top it all off, John has placed an emphasis on the subject of thinking. Thinking is the number one habit that small-medium-sized business owners should develop and maintain to grow, as John said. Implying, that being able to think through the hard stuff is the catalyst for a small business owner to make things happen because consequently, it's where ingenuity and success happen.

You can hire teachable, talented, and competent full-time virtual assistants for $600 per month. 2. You are ready to hire a VA if you have one thing in your business that you know works, and you are doing it and you feel that you can teach someone else to do it for you. 3. The potential downside of hiring a virtual assistant is if it does not work for you, you lose a couple hundred dollars. The potential upside if it does work: you get time back in your life.

John Jonas has helped over 100,000 people succeed in their business by doing outsourcing differently. He owns OnlineJobs.ph with nearly 1 million Filipino resumes and hundreds of thousands of employers hiring VAs. Top 3 Value Bombs: 1. You can hire teachable, talented, and competent full-time virtual assistants for $600 per month. 2. You are ready to hire a VA if you have one thing in your business that you know works, and you are doing it and you feel that you can teach someone else to do it for you. 3. The potential downside of hiring a virtual assistant is if it does not work for you, you lose a couple hundred dollars. The potential upside if it does work: you get time back in your life.

1239 - Outsourcing with Online Jobs' John Jonas

Steve interviews John Jonas, founder of onlinejobs.ph, which is a Philippines based job board providing virtual assistants to businesses internationally. It is a simple recruitment process that enables the user to source suitable and skilled workers and for job seekers from the Philippines to find the right online employment. He also teaches how to hire Virtual Assistants and how to make the system work well for your outsourcing. KEY TAKEAWAYS The culture of the Philippines is honesty, loyalty, good technology and internet access, low salaries, good English language skills, they appreciate the good working conditions offered by working at home and are glad to work for foreign bosses. To get the right assistant for you John recommends checking out Www.OneVAAway.com. It is a comprehensive guide to getting the right VA for you. Define correctly the role that you want to hire for. Hire someone for a job that you already know how to do that you can teach to someone else. Search for the skill and find out how much you have to pay and if the skills exist to fulfill your role. When you get your applicants you will find that if you have advertised for a general position, like a VA, you will get hundreds of applicants. If you don’t feel free to contact possible recruits. Use email to get an initial interview going. In this way you can bypass the initial shyness common amongst the people of the Philippines. The amount and the quality of training and feedback is important. Its part of the culture to expect on the job training. They see it as their boss investing in them. Also, they require regular feedback on their work. Software like Snagit can help you provide feedback easily as it records your screen and video of you so you can communicate not only training but notes, corrections and congratulations on your VA’s work. Building trust is essential with your VA’s so you can recognise and communicate with them on what is occurring in their lives so you understand any potential problems. BEST MOMENTS ‘We also advocate the Philippines as a great place but I wanna hear it from you. What is it about the Philippines particularly that you think makes it a great place for people in The States or U.K or Europe or whatever to actually hire people from?’ - Steve ‘In the Philippines they look up to foreign bosses as opposed to other cultures where like “oh, my stupid American boss”, you know?’ – John ‘Hope fully you’re gonna work with this person for the next 15 years. I didn’t say this already but the first person I ever hired in the Philippines in 2005 still works for me today.’ – John ‘If I send them an email today and they respond in 4 or 6 or 10 hours that’s great. If it takes them 2 or 3 days to respond, well, the chances of them taking 2 or 3 days to respond after I’ve hired them, it’s high, and that doesn’t work for me.’ – John ‘I hate meetings. I despise meetings. So in this they get to hear my voice and sometimes they get to see me because I’ll include myself in the corner of it which is super easy. And that builds trust, just them hearing my voice and getting to know my personality.’ – John ‘If you don’t do that, if you don’t build that trust that we were talking about before and give people a platform and understand that this is a human being like your saying, they have just the same problems that we have.’ - Steve ABOUT THE GUEST John has helped thousands of entrepreneurs succeed in their business by doing outsourcing differently.

GUEST SUMMARY We are back in our respective lab with the man that helped us build it. John Jonas is the reason why this episode is even possible and has been produced in a collective effort by our team sourced from onlinejobs.ph. John Jonas is the founder of onlinejobs.ph – the job board for virtual workers in the Philippines. He discusses his journey into growing his businesses by outsourcing tasks and leveraging other people's time to build his business. What it's like to outsource business processes and the process to finding the help that you need to grow your business by leveraging the right platform and setting the right expectations when onboarding a virtual assistant who John prefers to call an Online Filipino Specialist (OFS). After having built rapport with a few VAs, John was forced to step away from his business for a family emergency for several weeks forced to give the keys (figuratively) to his VAs to run his business remotely. Upon his return, the business had operated as usual without him running, it is then that John truly realized the power that this could have for entrepreneurs globally. He then built a platform to do just that. Fast forward to today, John has contributed to helping over 100,000 Filipino workers and entrepreneurs like himself nationwide hire expertise to help support their businesses and lifestyle while providing many opportunities for a workforce overseas.

How and why is this different than what you heard before in outsourcing. Summary: John Jonas has helped thousands of entrepreneurs succeed in their business by doing outsourcing differently. He created and runs OnlineJobs.ph, the largest website for finding Filipino virtual workers, with over 1,000,000 Filipino resumes and over 300,000 employers from around the world using it. While making a full-time living he rarely works full time. He works about 17 hours per week, choosing to spend his time with his family rather than working. John has made millions of dollars online directly from work that his 37 full-time Filipino workers have done for him and now teaches others exactly how to do the same thing. Here are the highlights of this episode: John has told us that typically their ideal client is not big business; a solopreneur or entrepreneur who's running your own business or having a small team. But they do have clients who area realtors, doctors, attorney, even from Google, Uber, and a lot more. These folks are facing the common issue of not having much of time of the day to get things done. The need assistance, but it's hard to find that help and someone who's affordable. In the Philippines, you can get a full-time talented designer or programmer. Typically, they feel overwhelmed, that's what John felt when he started the business. Like everyone, he wanted to work for himself and there's no 'boss.' But then he realized "yes, I'm the boss, I'm going to force myself to work 60hrs a day in a week" and it resulted to him feeling stressed and overworked. Common mistake is sometimes having this mindset of DIY (Do It Yourself) because you may still need help. John hired someone full time in the Philippines and it completely changed his life; for the first time ever, he stepped away from his business and worked ON his business to create something for him to do. He then felt liberated! He was forced to get the Filipino guy to do stuff for John and it was amazing. Why the Philippines? For John, he tried people from different countries. For him at beginning, the country doesn't matter. But when he went to the Philippines, he realized that the country matters. They're honest and loyal. The person that John hired back in 2005 still works for him today (16 years). They won't steal your idea, they're hard-working, the speak American English or no communication problem. They really value long-term full-time work, and that creates stability in the business.  John's Valuable Free Action (VFA): Most people would say "outsource what you don't know what to do and do what you're good at." And I say that's a terrible advice; outsource something that you are good at. It's maybe something you don't like doing but you know how to do, get something out of your plate.
