One common (and legitimate) concern you guys ask me about when hiring Online Filipino Specialists is how disaster-prone the Philippines is.
The Philippines experiences around 20 typhoons every year. Those typhoons often come with flooding and landslides.
The country also has several active volcanoes. It seems like there’s always one erupting and causing ash to fall all over the place.
So, why hire an OFS if they will be hit with one disaster after another?
One word: Resiliency.
Filipinos are resilient. And that resiliency will show in your business.
This isn’t just my opinion or your opinion. Gallup just released a study on which countries are best prepared for disasters. Want to know which country tops the list? It’s the Philippines.

You can hire locally, from the Philippines, or any other country if that’s what you want.
But succeeding in business is all about bouncing back from failure…and bouncing back is all about resiliency.
Hire a resilient VA from the Philippines.
