There is nothing quite like stuff being done in your business whilst you are drinking Chilli Mojitos on the beach.

This video below explains how I did it.

    My next step too. Would love to find out how you went through the recruiting process. Perhaps you could offer some sneaky tips when you are in Dubai :-)

    Yes, outsourcing is the way to go. Hiring VA’s can also help you focus on more important things that you have to do. The key is just in finding the right VA for you.

    Hi Dean,

    Wicked stuff mate! I think the vast majority of us get so excited about new ideas that we typically bite off more than we can chew.

    Having a VA or group of outsourcers defo seems to be the way forward – will keep an eye out in the members area for the strategies you employed.

    All the best mate – hope the iPad thing is working out well for you!

    Dean, mate, I have the exact same problem. Sometimes I even struggle to finish my corn-flakes.

    Get other people to do it for you. That’s the answer. :)

    Hi Dean,

    Thanks for another great video, I obviously don’t have a VA right now, but maybe one day I will have the funds to get one.

    I just had my very own revelation or “a-ha” moment this morning at around 2am on a coaching call with Alex Jeffreys.

    I actually wrote a blog post about it at 3am this morning (crazy I know) but I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep until I blogged about it first.

    Maybe if you could spare some time you could take a read and let me know your thoughts, I really value your opinion.

    I am going to the Internet Millionaires Summit in London on the weekend of the 18th June.

    You are the sole reason I am going (stalker alert ha ha, only kidding)

    Once I seen that you were a speaker, I booked my summit ticket and got my train tickets sorted to travel down from Scotland.

    I have been an admirer of the content and videos you share with us for sometime now and I am really really excited about seeing you speak in person.

    Can’t wait!!!

    Sally :)

    Hi Dean

    Great video. I don’t know if you’ve read “Four Hour Work Week” yet but you should definitely pick it up if you haven’t already. It’s basically all about outsourcing your entire life; anything from website design to personal Valentine’s Day greetings for your loved ones.

    It truly is a privilege to live in a world where such things are possible – we should take full advantage of it.

    Hi Dean,

    This is a good post,

    however when I personally tried to hire outsourcers. I spend time in the selection process on Elance or Odesk ( I prefer Odesk). Then I find that I get the best result if I take the time to really interview the people and give them either a task to do or asking them specific questions.

    Most of the time they cannot respond well but they are very willing to learn.

    My suggestion here is to hire someone either on a part time or full time basis instead of having small job done.

    Here is how I do it.

    step 1 : make a list of all activities you currently

    do and the ones needed to bring your business

    to the next level, even the one you don’t

    know how to do
    Step 2 : select the ones you want to outsource

    Step 3 : find training material for all tasks,
    video works best
    pdf second. (use Youtube for freebie HOW-to’s)
    record your own training videos
    Step 4 : Organize work load. You should have a 3 months
    outline (long Term) and a weekly schedule
    Consider the first month a training month for
    both you and the outsourcee

    TIPS : Your chosen person should communicate well speak
    and write as ideally will report to you daily
    be prapared to review their work and teach them
    how to improve it. Learn the country working
    custom and ask someone for a contract template
    consider using ODESK working room, which provide
    screen shot of the outsourcee pc during the day.
    Learn to communicate with skype, share screen
    funcionality

    for more tips feel free to contact me

    Hi Dean,

    Kudos for making the move. I’m in the process of working my first VA with a company here in Chicago. They outsource to the Phillipines.

    We’re in the process of setting up job descriptions, looking at writing samples, and timelines/schedules. They’re all college grads, FBI level background check, and are all “worker bee” types. No entrepreneur types.

    A couple years ago I took the Kolbe A Index test (http://www.kolbe.com/), which tests how you actually “do” things. It told me I was 8 out of 10 in Quick Start. This means I can start 18 projects at once, I thrive in chaos, and I love to work with my hair on fire. Anyway, I’m sharing because they give you tips and strategies on how to staff around your strengths and weaknesses.

    They told me I need someone who has a high rate of follow thru. No shit, Sherlock. Did you figure that out all by yourself?

    Cheers!

    Jeremy

    Hey there! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog. Is it difficult to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast. I’m thinking about creating my own but I’m not sure where to begin. Do you have any ideas or suggestions? With thanks
