"I have cameras pointing at my fridge. If the fridge is empty, the VA orders it."
If you thought you knew all there is to know about virtual assistants, this episode might surprise you.
We've got Justin Nelson on the show today; he's the CEO of Sphere Rocket, a VA company that has seen a tremendous amount of success in the past few years, going from 0 to 100 employees in just 12 months.
After leaving Engineering school early at the age of 19, he pursued his Real Estate License and, within three years, took over the team and launched his own Real Estate coaching company. From there, he created Sphere Rocket VA to help agents and businesses across all sectors acquire virtual assistant talent; they now hire thousands of people each year.
Justin shares that most people see their virtual assistants as robots - something he's trying to fix. Employers who treat their VAs respectfully and communicate effectively will have much better results. That's why they offer one-on-one coaching for employers to help change their perspective.
We also discuss Justin's determination and discipline that drove his success from an early age, how he leverages VAs in all areas of his life, his tips for managing a team of virtual employees, why he always hires three people for the same job, and how he got his team on board to sell the company.
If you're at all curious about how a Virtual Assistant can improve your life or your business for the better...don't miss this episode.

“Whenever I'm able to see someone's talent over 90 days, a lot of times I can create a position for them, especially if it's around generating more revenue.”
