Why I Only Hire VAs from the Philippines

Hiring my first VA from the Philippines didn’t just help my business—it changed my life. I hired my first Filipino VA back in 2005. Suddenly, it felt like there were two of me in my business. That guy still works for me today—just like the ones I hired in 2007, 2009, and 2011. He now runs and manages my 8-figure-a-year business. At this point, I’ve got almost 50 full-time Filipino VAs. You could find good people anywhere. But it’s way easier to find great ones in the Philippines. Here’s why: 🧭 The culture values honesty—so you know where you stand from the start 🤝 They’re incredibly loyal and stick around for years (unless you mess it up) 💪 They genuinely want to work hard and be productive 🛡️ They’re not trying to steal your clients or build a competing business 🗣️ They speak Americanized English fluently—often at home 💰 You can find top talent for $4–$15 an hour 🎓 Most have real college degrees and serious professional skills 🔁 They stay long enough to train others—so you don’t need endless SOPs 📩 They get job offers all the time—and still choose to stay loyal 🧾 You don’t have to deal with payroll taxes, benefits, or compliance ⚡ The hiring process takes days, not weeks 📢 They’re easy to work with and open to feedback 🌏 And culturally, they just fit—especially for small business owners By the end of this episode, you won’t be hoping to find a great VA—you’ll know exactly how I’ve kept mine for 10, 15, even 20 years. ▶️ Want a team you can actually rely on?
