The only question left: Do you want to start working with a cohesive, professional Virtual Support Team that delivers a solid ROI NOW or months from now? Are you tired of paying for virtual team building secrets that drain your bank account, leave you feeling overwhelmed with all the things you "must do to succeed", and only hints at where to look for the best resources? Have you fallen victim to these time-, money- and energy-draining traps? The truth behind those study guides, step-by-step plans, and all that other "blah, blah, blah" that only holds you back! Trap #1. Invest Thousands in Virtually Useless Information You know they're out there--the audio CDs, the self-study guides, the e-books, the boot camps, the webinars--and, of course--the "mastermind" groups. They've got a good pitch. For the entrepreneur willing to delegate, Virtual Support Teams promise you six or seven figures and the lifestyle you've always wanted. Soon, you find yourself forking out dough for their "step-by-step plan" guaranteed to deliver all the secrets to your success! But let's get real. In the end all those binders and stacks of CDs cluttering up your office make better paperweights and doorstops than anything else. Who the heck has time to absorb and implement all that--especially a stressed out entrepreneur? And don't listen to the hype! Those companies selling you programs always make it sound like building a team has to be incredibly time consuming, full of learning curves, and hard to set up. Of course they do! You would never buy their programs if you knew how painless it actually was to have someone do it for you--for free! Building a professional, solid team should NEVER take weeks or months to set up. Sure, for the overworked and overwhelmed small business owner starting from scratch, trying to follow all those schemes and steps, it is a hassle--no doubt. A DIY approach to virtual team building defeats your goals from the get-go. Trap #2. Realize That You've Just Spent Thousands More in Your Own Time After weeks (if you're lucky) of absorbing all that "need to know" information, you realize that you've done EXACTLY what they told you NOT to do! You learned how to do this yourself instead of hiring someone to do it for you. And, if you decide to sit down and see how much time you have wasted listening to those audio tapes, reading those e-books and attending those tele-classes, multiply that by your hourly rate, you'll see how much more money you've just lost. Ouch! Trap #3. You're On Your Own It finally sunk in--didn't it? Even if you aren't suffering from information overload, and even if you did find some of their ideas intriguing or helpful, you're still left with a lot of planning, research, interviewing, hiring, implementation, etc. They might dole out advice and point you to resources but what you really need are immediate solutions! Who's going to help you or provide you with that? Not the company that sold you your "Planning Toolkit"! They're off conducting more tele-classes. They don't care about your business. They're not invested in you. They're not going to grow with you over time. They're after the quick sale. They've taken your money, crossed their fingers that you won't ask to cash in on their money back guarantee, and are hoping that they've given you just enough information to have you coming back for more--because there's always more, right? Or, even worse, they're hoping they've impressed you just enough to get you sign up for their very expensive mastermind or coaching program to further reduce your learning curve. PLEASE! More time and money down the drain! That could have paid for an awful lot of virtual assistance ... REAL WORK! They've already moved on to sell to the next mass of small business suckers that are looking for a quick, painless solution. You can live the life you want but how much more time and money is it going to take to get you there? Want a REAL, Quick and Painless Solution?
We know you're out there ... stressing over deadlines ... burning the midnight oil ... wishing you could take that family vacation you keep putting off ... trying to figure out how you will ever get everything done ... and wondering why you ever went into business for yourself in the first place! You're probably concerned with turnover too. Hiring the wrong team members is an investment you can't afford to waste.
Whether you're busy with time-draining administrative tasks like bookkeeping, stuck on the next step in a web site project, or simply absorbed in planning how to build your Virtual Support Team ... your sales calls aren't getting made. Your new programs and services aren't being launched. Your office is such a disaster you can't find anything you need. And, you--well, you look like something the cat dragged in. How much more time and money will you waste? How much more stress can you endure? And, what on earth happened to that dream you were chasing? We know! You're so sleep deprived your dreams have turned into nightmares!
Why on earth would you want to waste more time climbing a learning curve that we already know and are willing to flatten for you ... in a hands on environment ... customized to your company's unique needs? Just because you're the company leader doesn't mean you have to be the virtual team designer and builder too! Most entrepreneurs assume that they need to fill that role because they don't know any better. Lucky you! So, here's the deal: If you're looking for advice on how to build a highly successful virtual support team with immediate results, you're in the wrong place. We're not going to bore you with the details. We're going do it for you! And not only are we going to do it for you--we are going to provide you with everything--and I mean everything you need--to propel your business. And that doesn't include just a list of resources that you need to go review on your own. We've done that too. So, if you're not only ready to delegate, but put yourself in the hands of a highly respected company with a proven track record for doing it all and providing it all, read on my friend! Put those search engine-weary wrists and advice-weary ears to rest and relax for once! You deserve it!
Who the heck am I and why should you listen to me?
I have built my entire career around remote assistance and management. From the time I was 19 years old I have been working in an administrative capacity. In Corporate America I spent years honing my skills--working with remote teams, and developing new ways to be productive. As a traditional Office Manager, it was my job to keep everyone in the loop, provide them with the tools they needed, and continually improve upon systems that increased productivity. I applied those same principals to my own Virtual Assistance practice in 1999, and continue to improve upon them today with my virtual staffing company, Virtual Dynamos Worldwide, Inc. Since entering the virtual world of business, I've been considered a Team Designer, Team Leader, Team Manager ... you name it. And, I've coached many Virtual Assistants on how to become more valuable to clients. And through all that experience and coaching, I have come to know not only what small business owners want ... but more importantly what motivates their Virtual Assistants to make sure they get what they need! And, we continually research systems and technology that continue to deliver a better ROI. Over the years I've been praised for my "quiet authority, sincere accountability, and absolute dedication to my craft." That's all great stuff, but the bottom line is, I keep my promises. And I promise you: I will treat your budget like it is my own. But please--don't take my word for it! Take a look at what our satisfied clients have said over the years ...
You get it all. And, NO. We're not kidding. Here's 8 Dynamite Reasons Why you Should Let Us Build a Team for You for FREE ...
1. Unrivaled Screening & Hiring Process
Hiring the traditional way will cost you time, money, and sanity. It could even cost you a web site, a confidentiality breach, and more if you're not careful! I've seen it happen. Searching for one Virtual Assistant can be a real headache--never mind a whole team. How many web sites are you going to have to sort through? Who's ethical and trustworthy? How are you going to keep track of all their different policies, rates, and billing schedules? Not to mention the fact that the Virtual Assistants you find on your own probably won't know anything about each other--and certainly won't have team tools that they are already familiar with. Starting off with a Virtual Support Team like that will only leave you wishing you had hired employees instead!
How do we know we've got the best screening process? Our candidates complain. If they aren't willing to put in a substantial effort just to apply, we weed them out. Serious professionals jump through hoops to be considered a Virtual Dynamo. We:
2. Unrivaled Industry-First Certification Programs
We don't focus on what Virtual Assistants already know. Let's face it. We're only going to hire professional VAs. Certifying them the way most companies do with a "How to Be a VA" program just doesn't make sense.
Our industry-first training program focuses on team design, building, evolution and success. It's a tough, hands-on program based on real assignments that requires a tremendous amount of self-discipline, self-management, and communication skills. Our delegation process even allows for teams to continually learn from each other and pool their resources. This process continues long after certification has ended as team members collaborate in our exclusive Virtual Dynamos virtual community--and attend monthly tele-classes. They never stop learning.
3. Unrivaled Industry-First Client Matching System
You might be worrying about who you get matched up with. Though we have many Virtual Assistants on call, we don't simply match you with whoever is "next in line". After evaluating your needs, we head to our database to search for candidates based on the following:
And finally--we call them without warning to see how they respond. How they answer the phone says a lot. And we know that some Virtual Assistants out there will compromise their own goals by jumping at any assignment that pays well. We can tell. If we don’t hear a real excitement in their voice about working with you, and they aren’t asking important questions, we don’t even consider them.
4. The Unrivaled Virtual Dynamos P-R-A-C-T-I-C-A-L Approach™ to Virtual Support Team Building
Face it: you can plan, plan, plan until the cows come home. What you need to do is dive in and develop your virtual support team while you are working toward your company's goals ... RIGHT NOW. Increase your productivity--and profitability--immediately! We've got cohesive, motivated teams that know exactly how to work together at peak efficiency ready to go when you are!
With our industry-first P-R-A-C-T-I-C-A-L Approach, we work from the bottom up to achieve the very best results in project management. Nobody else offers you an all-inclusive package that includes team coaching, self assessments, and tools--combined with full service project management. Learning curves are small to none. ROIs are huge.
I will personally coach you and your entire team myself for the entire first month. We hold weekly 30-minute meetings with a solid agenda that focuses on goals, systems, technology, and whatever else is on your mind to keep your team on track. We will also introduce tools as you need them, so you won't feel overwhelmed with details and encourage the entire team to offer suggestions as they pool their resources. One of those tools is the self assessment--which we described above. You, I, and your team members all get a copy of each other's self assessment to drastically reduce learning curves for developing your team hierarchy, delegation, and virtual communication. This will also allow you to build a team culture and environment for you to thrive in. The best part? It's completely flexible and customized to your company's unique needs. You've probably already hired a host of support professionals who are working toward your benefit -- an accountant, a publicist, a web developer? Chances are they aren't collaborating as efficiently as they could be. Our team members are experts at collaborating with your existing support professionals to get everyone "on the same page" and working more productively for your benefit. And remember: we are ready to grow and evolve with you. You have access to an unlimited amount of team members that you can swap in and out on the fly. They encompass every possible skill set--and all work simultaneously at flat hourly rates. 5. Practical Systems & Technology ... we've completely streamlined the back-end.
We said we had it all and we mean it ...
6. Competitive Rates and Flexible Options Yes, it gets even better ...
7. 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed. Period. The Virtual Dynamos Creed
We LOVE ...
We promise to NEVER …
We promise to ALWAYS …
We promise to always FINISH …
However, should you become dissatisfied for any reason, we gladly offer our "Re-do" Expedited Service or a full refund. 8. Perks ... further investments or cash back. Many of our clients have been loyal to us for several years. Stick with us and reap the same rewards that they have enjoyed.
Sound way too good to be true? Let's get Really Real. We both know that we're not really selling anything new here. The idea that the world's most successful people delegate to focus on the core of their business is no secret. What is new that today's technology makes it possible to reduce the traditional costs of hiring in-house employees. More and more small business owners are opening their eyes to the huge benefits and cost-savings of doing business this way. What sets us apart is the fact that as your team, we are invested in growing with you. And between our own services and the services of our trusted partners, you have absolutely everything you need to launch a Virtual Support Team right now! Ask yourself this:
Nobody in the industry does more to make sure that small business owners get off on the right foot and build upon that success--with their virtual team. Stating to see where the "Dynamo" part comes in? We dare you to compare. Dynamos are simply driven. We thrive on challenges. Nobody in our field:
What special talents do these Virtual Dynamos have?
Skills ... the ability to possess:
Perseverance ... the ability to:
Natural Talent ... the ability to:
More "Virtual Reality" ... Real results ... Real fast! Some like to say time = money. The Virtual Dynamos motto is Productivity = Profitability. This basic business principal is so evident in virtual team building. We'll custom build your team and make sure that it launches in a way that will allow it to evolve successfully and make you more profitable. All you have to do is "show up" and be the best company leader you can be. Isn't that why you went into business for yourself in the first place? What's this all REALLY worth?
The Virtual Dynamos P-R-A-C-T-I-C-A-L Approach to virtual support team building saves the average small business owner an estimated 50 hours in training, planning and hiring time, and up to $10,000 in training materials and their own time--not to mention the burden of overwhelm, fatigue, and frustration.
Remember: those "step by step" plans that look too good to be true ... are! Don't fall into their traps!
You won't find a better ROI based on quality, reputation and EVERYTHING you need ... risk-free.

How can we afford to give away so much?
We're investing in a long-term business relationship with you. There are no hidden agendas. We're not going to pitch you an upgrade to our "mastermind program". We're not going to expect you to have to pay for any new tools we develop over time. You're our client and we are going to a) get you off on the right foot and b) foster the relationship over time so that you will stick with us. We want to grow with you. It's that simple.
It doesn't get any more painless than this! If you don't sign up now, you're just not ready to delegate. A Special Note for "Control Freaks" & Perfectionists ... We know you're out there. You probably consider yourself to be a hands-on, DIY entrepreneur. The truth is, you've still got excuses for not taking advantage of something that will make you highly productive--and profitable. Excuse #1: You're not ready! If you're waiting to "get your ducks" in a row before you start delegating, you'll never start delegating. Doesn't that defeat the point? Of course you have systems that need to be put into place! It makes more sense to get your team involved in helping you create those systems so you will all be "on the same page" from the get-go. I've seen so many entrepreneurs waste time and money putting systems into place for their team, only to find out later that the actually team had much better solutions for cutting costs, and increasing productivity. All their hard work, time and money went down the drain. Remember: you're team is highly resourceful--and experts at putting technology to work for your benefit!
Excuse #2: You're convinced that nothing will be done right unless you do it yourself. Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, Donald Trump, Suze Orman .... and anyone you personally admire have one thing in common. They know to grow you must delegate! That's why they have what many people call the "millionaire mindset." So, if you find yourself needing to know how every tiny detail of your business operates, you need to stop and tap into that mindset--right now! Even perfectionists delegate. It's just a matter of finding the perfect people to fill each role.
Excuse #3: You just can't see it happening. Another thing wealthy, successful business giants have in common is the ability to spend more time envisioning their success than worrying about what will go wrong. If you envision yourself leading a highly successful team, it will happen. By providing solid leadership and encouraging collaborative teamwork, they will be motivated to perform at their best.
Excuse #4: You don't want to take the time to train anyone. OK, so you don't have time to train anyone ... but you also don't have time to do everything yourself. How much time are you really going to have to sacrifice to get your team up to speed? Remember: they don't need to know everything all at once!
Excuse #5: You just can risk it. Trust is one of the biggest obstacles in the virtual business relationship. After all, you're never going to meet this person. You can't see what their work area looks like. They're not going to be available to you like a traditional employee would. You're probably worried about legalities, technology, responsibility, quality ... and a host of other things.
Excuse #6: You don't want to invest a lot into technology--or anything else! Don't. Remember, one of the biggest benefits to hiring a virtual team is that they have their own software and equipment. And, of course, they take care of their own benefits, so you don't have to worry about the typical employees woes. Simple things like setting up additional email accounts or having phone lines forwarded to them will probably cost you nothing.
Excuse #7: You actually enjoy the dirty work! Well, that's nice--but its not productive. If you want your business to grow you need to produce more--a lot more. That means having more people working as productively as possible--simultaneously. They're relying on you to be the leader, spread your company message, and capitalize on opportunities. Remember why you started your company in the first place!
Excuse #8: You're afraid of losing control or authority. That's impossible--honestly. It's YOUR business! You control the level of responsibility within the team--even if you appoint a Team Leader to delegate tasks for you. If you can see yourself in a leadership role, that will never happen.
Excuse #9: You don't want to manage a whole team.
The idea of delegating to more than one team member--especially virtual ones--can seem daunting at first. It seems like a lot to set up, juggle, and streamline.
Excuse #10: You think you can hire a VA from India or off a job board for a lot less.
Ah, we knew this one was coming. Go ahead. Try it. We know you don't want to run up your phone bill to India, though you could communicate through the internet ... but do you really want to do that in the wee hours of the morning if you can avoid it? It's a gamble and you know it. It won't work for you if you want to build a real team that will make you profitable in the long run.
And, do you really think that someone who charges less than $10/hour has a solid head for business? Their overhead is going to cost them more than that! Is that someone that you think you can invest in to grow with your company over time? In VERY RARE cases some out there actually charge so little because they aren't profit-driven. They just like doing what they do--but good luck finding those people. In the past ten years, I've only run into one such Virtual Assistant.
And here's one last trap that many entrepreneurs fall into: they hire a "VA" for $10/hour but it takes them 5 hours to do a project that a Virtual Dynamo could do in 1 hour at a rate of say, $35 per hour. Do that and you've just wasted more money, got poorer quality work, and had to wait for a longer turn-around time.
OK, No more excuses! Accept the Productivity to Profitability Test Drive before you waste more time, money and sanity ...
This page is nearing a novel ... and I could go on forever. If you're still skeptical--please--give me a call today at 877.78.DYNAMO (877.783.9626), Ext. 82. I've convinced company leaders who were adamant about never working with another VA again to hire our team. I convinced entrepreneurs who were highly skeptical about being able to trust anyone virtual to hire with our team. We've even had some clients stick with us for seven years. Once you hit something good ... something that works for you ... why switch?
One last point: In the time that it took you to read this page ...
One Virtual Assistant could have created an HTML e-zine template, another could have made several follow up phone calls for you, and yet another could have entered your weekly expenses into Quickbooks. The possibilities are endless. Seize them and succeed now!
Dedicated to increasing your productivity and profitability ...
