-
- Business
The COVID-19 craziness has caused people to stress out and scramble to work remotely. This crisis is pushing everything forward technologically. Why not hire a virtual assistant (VA) to scale your property management business?
Today’s guest is Daniel Ramsey of MyOutDesk. Daniel is a real estate investor/broker who loves doing deals, and property management is a way to connect with others and create communities. But he also wants time to take a vacation with his family!
You’ll Learn... [02:52] MyOutDesk: Property managers find talent to inexpensively scale their business.
[04:05] MLS Porn: Scrolling through new investment properties on the market.
[05:05] Remote Reality: In 2018, 5% of America worked remotely, now it’s 50%.
[07:58] Work Culture: Maintain good team, quality interaction, and customer service; and reduce operational/overhead costs.
[15:00] Steps to Scale: Assess business, compound leverage, develop plan, craft outcome, start interviewing, launch, and training.
[25:48] Match Values, Not Personalities: Define who you are as a person and company.
[33:15] Go Remote Guide: Tips for working remotely with new technology.
[35:08] Push vs. Pull Leadership: Communicate, don’t micromanage.
[44:15] MyOutDesk Mission: VAs need to be indispensable and irreplaceable.
[46:15] Pricing vs. Cash Crunch: Do you need help? Can you afford MyOutDesk? [53:52] Care ROI Concept: Emotion is what creates memories.
Tweetables I had a need in my own real estate practice. I hired a virtual assistant. I was like, ‘Wow, this works.’
Leverage is compound interest and entrepreneurs’ biggest swing.
When I hire somebody, I'm hiring them to grow my revenue. I'm hiring them to save money. I'm hiring them to own an entire process for my business.
The biggest cure for the economy is businesses and entrepreneurs staying productive.

DoorGrow Hackers love the opportunities, daily variety, unique challenges, and freedom that property management brings. Many in real estate think you're crazy for doing it.

Daniel: Thanks for having me, Jason. I'm so glad to be here.
Jason: Daniel and I were talking a little bit in the green room chatting up a little bit about what's going on. It's a little bit crazy right now, with COVID-19 and Coronavirus, and all this stuff, the real estate market looks scary. We may get into that a little bit in the show, but our topic today is using a virtual assistant to scale your property management business with MyOutDesk. Before we get into that, Daniel, what I want to hear about your background, your entrepreneurial journey and that should lead us right into the inception of MyOutDesk.
