[Give] System to onramp VAs to full productivity in 7 days
After helping over 300 agency owners & consultants to buy back time & create leverage, one of the most common reasons that got them stuck as the bottleneck is a hiring process that looks somewhat like this... 1 - Search for a job site or a VA agency 2 - Hire whoever has a pulse and is willing to be paid for cheap 3 - Assign the new hire random tasks to do 4 - Wonder why nothing gets done correctly 5 - Spend crazy amounts of time micromanaging & hand holding 6 - Feel like they’re pouring time and payroll down the drain 7 - Fire the VA and revert back to square one. While it is important to make sure you hire the right talent with the requisite attitude, competence and experience you're looking for, what's even MORE IMPORTANT, is the prep work you do BEFORE the hire. Such as... 1) Creating a job ad that clarifies - Why working with your company is an amazing opportunity for the right candidate - Role title - Role responsibility - Role requirements - KPIs - Compensation & benefits 2) Developing an onboarding process that clarifies - Your company's vision, culture, ICP, offer. - Overview of company operations and processes - Communication cadence & reporting practices. - Daily, weekly, monthly and trigger-based duties. - SOPs & processes illustrating how those duties are done and to what standard This is what differentiates transformative hires that lead to massive leverage & ROI… and disastrous hires that lead to a massive waste of time and money. If the above is not clarified and prepared BEFORE the hire… you’re going to have a bad time. Because what happens to a VA who isn’t provided with clear expectations, clear purposes, and guidelines on how to perform for the company? Even if they check all the boxes of the perfect candidate you’re looking for… they will underperform. Because expectations that aren’t communicated are expectations that won’t be met, and a lack of clarity will only lead to confusion. That's exactly why we don't want to just focus on hiring the right people, but to create a system where both people AND process can work together to produce leverage.
