Practice what you preach 🏆 Operating across two countries, the Netherlands and Suriname is often challenging. I need my eyes and ears on the ground in Suriname as well to make sure that we can hire the right people, do proper onboarding with clients and train our agents. As an advocate for remote employees and outsourcing sales and customer service ,I believe in leading by example and sharing my experiences. 💭 Soo… Here's my secret 🙊 I’ve been working with a Virtual assistant, Rohan, and the impact has been transformative. With his help, I’ve managed to accomplish 4x what I could on my own. Rohan was originally part of our pool of Customer Service employees, recruited to serve Dutch and Belgian clients. When we interviewed Rohan we recognized that he had a lot of experience and drive. I wanted to hire a personal Virtual assistant who could assist me in Sales, onboarding, overseeing CS agents and more. And just for the record, I handle my LinkedIn myself! 😂 I wanted to hire someone from our own talent pool of agents to see if they managed my expectations and more importantly the expectations of our clients. From the beginning Rohan expressed a desire to take on more than just VA tasks, and I’ve put him to the test. He’s progressed from building sales lists to managing clients and training agents directly. 💪 He also holds me accountable, like yesterday when he basically yelled at me through text that I needed to stay objective and not get overwhelmed by emotions after a mistake was made. Thanks to Rohan, the past month has been a lot smoother👍 This goes to show that when considering a Virtual assistant or thinking about outsourcing a sales or customer service process, Suriname 🇸🇷 is an excellent option. Not only due to the language but also the quality of talent available. Reflecting on this, it’s clear that effective outsourcing is not just about delegation, but also about empowerment and mutual growth. 📈

Hiring for American or British companies in Central European markets like France and Germany can pose significant challenges, often leading to failure if not approached with careful preparation. Learning from my past failures, here are some tips: 1. Recognise the Need for a Different Sales Persona:    - Companies in France and Germany have distinct buying behaviors. Success often lies with sales representatives who prioritise building strong relationships. 2. Prioritise Cultural Fit:   - It's crucial to find a representative who not only aligns with your company's culture but also fits seamlessly into your global team. Start by looking for candidates who have previously excelled in roles with American or British companies. 3. Navigate Local Employment Law:   - Understanding the nuances of local employment law is essential. In France and Germany, employment regulations differ significantly from those in the US or UK. Be prepared to offer generous vacation days and ensure compliance with local laws by leveraging entities like Remote or establishing a German entity. 4. Start Early:   - The hiring process in Central European markets can be lengthy, often taking up to six months to have a fully onboarded representative ready to go. Factor in lengthy notice periods, three months is the standard. These are big markets and can certainly be worth the effort, just make sure you know what you are getting yourself in for. #remote #remotework #france #germany
