HUSBAND. FATHER. DISCIPLE OF JESUS CHRIST.
ENTREPRENEUR. MEDIOCRE GOLFER.
I’m John Jonas. I live in Utah and I founded OnlineJobs.ph. My life is better because of my Filipino VAs.
I had a normal “job” for 8 months after college and my biggest goal at that time was to be able to quit that job. I managed to quit back in 2004 and worked from home for myself ever since then.
When I first hired someone from the Philippines in January of 2006, I knew I was onto something special. Since then I’ve learned that for most people, life is definitely better with Filipino workers on your team.
Yes, because of my Filipino workers I get to play a lot of golf, spend a lot of time with my wife and kids, and get out backpacking in the middle of the week. I work for about 17 hours a week because of the amazing work they do. However it’s not just better for us; it’s better for them too.
P.S.
I DON’T DO SOCIAL MEDIA…
MY VA’S DO IT FOR ME.
Changing “I can’t…” to “How can I…” with OFS
I’ve mentioned a few times that “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” is one of those books that shaped the course of my life. It kept me out of debt. It taught me to take appropriate risks. It taught me to buy assets before liabilities.
There’s a line in that book that, I think, perfectly illustrates the potential of hiring an OFS: Online Filipino Specialist.
“‘I can’t afford it’ shuts down your brain. ‘How can I afford it?’ open up possibilities, excitement and dreams.”
If you think you can’t afford to hire any help, you’re limiting yourself.
– You can’t take on new clients because you don’t have help.
– You can’t grow your business because you don’t have help.
– You can’t go on a vacation or take a break because you don’t have help.
But when you think about how you can afford to hire an OFS, your brain starts to look for opportunities.
“I want to give my OFS this task to get this thing off my plate. With that free time, I can look for more clients.”
“I’ve always wanted to improve our customer service. I’ll give this task to my OFS so I’ll have more time to do something else.”
“If I delegate one more task to my OFS, I’ll be working 1 hour less per week. I can use that time to sleep more.”
When you don’t have an OFS, you can only see what you can’t do. When you have an OFS, you start seeing everything you can do.
Open yourself up to possibilities, excitement, and dreams. You can start by posting a job at Onlinejobs.ph
