8 Facts and 4 Tips to Strengthen Your Real Estate Referrals

MOD Virtual Assistants, Real Estate

92% of respondents reported that a positive recommendation from a friend, family member, or someone they trust is the biggest influence on whether they buy a product or service.

~ Paul M. Rand, VP Communications @ University of Chicago

Real Estate Referrals: The Backbone of Realtors and Brokerages

Most Real Estate Agents complete nine out of every ten deals from their sphere of influence. This usually includes loved ones, friends, and past clients. Therefore, the amount of business you can generate from referrals is essential and should not be overlooked nor neglected, and yet, many Real Estate professionals do.

Referrals Matter In Real Estate

Word of Mouth

In the modern business world, 74% of consumers say that word-of-mouth is a critical influence on their purchases. ONE offline word of mouth impression increases sales by at least FIVE TIMES MORE than a paid advertisement. Consumers rely on word-of-mouth 2x to 10x more than paid media.

Real Estate Referral Fee

The standard rate for real estate referrals is 25% but this is just a baseline to work from. It can really be whatever you want it to be and can change based on the situation, the relationship of the people involved, and the market. If you want to maintain a good relationship with people referring your business, it’s probably best not to be cheap when it comes to a real estate referral fee. Take care of the people taking care of you!

8 Real Estate Referral Statistics you should take into consideration:

  1. The typical agent earns 42% of their business from repeat clients and referrals from past clients.
  2. 82% of all real estate transactions come from repeat and referral businesses.
  3. 21% of agents get more than 50% of their business from referrals from past clients.
  4. 25% of agents generate more than 50% of their business from repeat clients.
  5. 92% of consumers trust recommendations from friends and family above all other forms of advertising.
  6. 82% of real estate sales result from agent contacts through previous clients, referrals, friends, family, and personal contacts.
  7. 65% of agents get no business from open houses.
  8. 88% of buyers and 84% of sellers would use their agent again or refer them to others.

While marketing funnels, advertising, and prospecting can generate much business, there is still no channel as powerful as referrals and repeat business. Reaching out to your past clients and consistently touching base with everyone in your sphere of influence is an essential strategy that you need to have in place. It doesn’t have to be hour-long conversations or even face-to-face encounters. While those would work well, too, you can use the many means of communication available to set a healthy game plan to nurture your network.

People influence people. Nothing influences people more than a recommendation from a trusted friend. A trusted referral influences people more than the best broadcast message. A trusted referral is the Holy Grail of advertising.

~ Mark Zuckerberg, Co-Founder @ Facebook

4 Tips for a Healthy Referral Pipeline

  1. Start investing before the big sale. The relationship a realtor has with their clients is built upon every interaction they have, from beginning to end. Take advantage of every opportunity to strengthen that relationship, and establish yourself as not just a “salesman” in their life, but a friend who’s genuinely looking out for them. For example, gifts are often reported as a very effective way to do this. Celebrate every milestone on the journey to closing; did the seller pass inspection after a lot of hard work on repairs and upgrades? Send a bottle of champagne!
  2. Cultivate the relationship beyond the sale. The celebration doesn’t stop just because the deal closed. Part of building that relationship extends beyond the closing. You should be strengthening that relationship and staying ever so slightly on their mind, year round. You can do this by continuing to celebrate milestones, like the 1-year anniversary of when they closed on their new house for example. But don’t limit yourself, celebrate anything that’s important to your client too, like their firstborn or the opening of a business. Time for another bottle!
  3. Make it personal, for them. Okay sending a nice bottle of wine or champagne to celebrate milestones and wins is great, but what if they don’t drink? It’s important to keep the whole experience about them, not you. During the entire process, you should be getting to know your clients, so that you can tailor gifts and other experiences around their own interests and preferences. You can even send them a curated list of gift options for the right occasion. But don’t forget the personalized message! Gifts are great, but stories are forever.
  4. Host some killer events. What better way to get people talking than to bring them all to an open bar? Seriously though, a surefire way to get your clients buzzing is to bring them to an event they’ll be talking about all week. This can be in-person or virtual, but keep it relatively intimate. Only invite 10-20 past and current clients, not counting their partner or family. This empowers them to network with each other and gets everyone talking about it to their own friends and family afterward. You’ll be a household name in no time!

Strategize! Execute!

Once you have strategies in place, finding the time to put them into action is a whole other story. Having someone in your team who can put these plans in motion, consistently monitor them, and not just implement them but keep them moving can help you win those referrals and keep business flowing in. A MyOutDesk Marketing or Administrative Virtual Assistant can do that for you as you focus on growing your business and finding more people who will bring in more referrals.

If you’re feeling anxious about uncertainties in the 2022 economy, it’s time to consider innovative strategies to diversify your revenue & give your business much-needed stability. Finding creative ways to think outside of the box and out-innovate your competitors is a surefire way to thrive, no matter what the economic situation may be.

[Grab a FREE Strategy Call Here]

Market Research

If you have a knack for gathering data and resources to get them, you may want to offer market research for businesses within your industry. Many business owners and entrepreneurs do not have the time or resources to research independently, so this may be a service you can offer. Through research and feasibility studies, you can examine different aspects of the data you find and help a business with its specific issues. For example, you can explore marketing, technology uses, research and development, and even automation.

Analytics

If you have experience and knowledge about the metrics of running a business, you should consider providing analytical services to business owners. Sometimes, businesses need a little help figuring out things like budget allocation, risk, reward, etc. Analytics provide these data points, but entrepreneurs often don’t understand how to get them or use them. You could help other small businesses raise their venture capital and grow their business.

Online Classes

If you have a specific topic that you feel you are an expert in or have developed a solid method to help people in your industry, why not build an online course? You can share your wisdom, help people out and earn some coin in the process. Online courses are top-rated and are often taken by those who wish to build their knowledge or look for ways to improve their business.

Referrals

This may be the best time to bank on referrals from past clients or customers. Build a referral program that will benefit both you and your referrers.  Be it loyalty reward points for discounts or cold hard cash, working out a solid referral program could bring you tons of new business. According to statistics, word of mouth is the primary factor behind 20-50% of purchasing decisions. Business to business companies with referrals have a 70% higher conversion rate, and they report a 69% faster close time on sales. CUSTOMERS WHO ARE REFERRED TO YOUR BRAND ARE UP TO 5X MORE LIKELY TO USE YOUR REFERRAL PROGRAM THAN CUSTOMERS WHO WEREN’T. Keep that in mind when you build your referral program and come up with something sure to keep those referrals pouring in.

Coaching/Mentoring/Consulting

If you have had great success in starting, running, and growing a business or business, you should definitely consider becoming a business coach or consultant or even starting a mentorship program. Many start-ups and budding entrepreneurs could benefit from your wisdom and advice.

These are just a few ideas you could use to branch out and expand your business this year. But, if you need a strong team to support you, schedule a Double Your Business Strategy Session today to find out how  MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant can do just that and more!

Keeping Your Business Going In Uncertain Times

MOD Virtual Assistants

No matter how much you plan ahead, there are certain things that no amount of preparation can account for. Being flexible and quick on your feet can make all the difference between your business failing and thriving in times of crisis.

Have the best team in place no matter the situation with MyOutDesk Virtual Assistants! Schedule your GoRemote with MyOutDesk Virtual Assistants Strategy Session today to find out how.

Be a Chameleon

Find creative ways to adapt to the current situation. Brainstorm with your team and talk about alternative ways you can run the business while you are at home. If you run a B2C model and rely on face-to-face, in-store interaction with clients, think of ways to provide the same service in a different way. For example, many restaurants continue to operate by adding a delivery service, giving discounts and coupons, subscriptions, etc. to keep up with the competition. This is a more obvious example of course, but take a look at your business model and find ways you can work around your current situation.

 

Keep The Current Situation Top Of Mind

In your marketing, be aware of how you can keep your message relevant to the current situation. Increased and flexible marketing is crucial right now because many people will wonder whether certain businesses are still operational. Make sure your target audience knows you’re open and still going strong.

 

Plan Ahead

It’s important to consider not only how to survive as a business, but also to have a strategy in place for what’s going to happen afterward. Don’t assume that once the crisis has passed, things will just go back to the way they’d been before the outbreak. One key consideration is that being confined to their homes will likely lead to many customers switching to online or otherwise remote solutions, and it shouldn’t be assumed that post-crisis, they will go back to the solutions they’d used prior to the outbreak.

 

Have a Plan A to Z

Make sure that you explore different scenarios and challenges and solutions and steps you will deploy for each one. While you may not be able to predict anything, it’s nice to have contingencies in place so that you can adapt to any situation, odds are that if something comes up that you may not have an exact plan for, having several different challenges plus solutions will help you.

 

Embrace New Technology

Since remote work is now the norm, this is the perfect time to find and try out new innovations in software, apps etc. That may benefit your business’ new set-up. Do your research and try different ones. Consider using online platforms for your planning and communication. Use Google Docs or dropbox for collaborative documents and files that everyone can edit and comment on, Monday or similar software for business planning that keeps everyone on the same page, and the likes of Slack or Stormboard for brainstorming and file-sharing.

We are all in limbo as things unfold in the world, but your business does not have to be. If you would like to discuss further remote staffing options, make sure to schedule a GoRemote with MyOutDesk Virtual Assistants Strategy Session so we can discuss options and how we can help.

Blended Business Model: Remote Work with Traditional Employees & Virtual Assistants

Administrative, Cannabis & Legal Marijuana, Financial Planning, Healthcare, Human Resources, Inside Sales, Insurance, Marketing, Marketing, MOD Virtual Assistants, Mortgage, Property Management, Real Estate, Technology

We all know that businesses are thriving online in today’s information age. So why aren’t businesses proportionally blending their physical and remote practices?

Working from home is actually more productive than working from the office. According to studies from Stanford, it turns out work-from-home employees work a true full-shift (or more) versus being late to the office or leaving early multiple times a week and found it less distracting and easier to concentrate at home.

The fact that the Internet and other modernizations have globalized our economy gives you a chance to scale your business faster and further than ever before, using a blended business model, as many big companies do.

What exactly is a Blended Business Model?

A blended business model is an engineered organizational chart where part of an organization works in-house and another part works virtually.

Symptoms when without a Blended Business Model:

  • Company revenue productivity is suffering because most of your time as the CEO is spent on non-revenue efforts.
  • Your growth curve is flat because you’re stuck with administrative work.
  • You know you need support but do not want to go through the tedious process of hiring, only to have your hires leave after a period of time, thus putting you in a vicious cycle.
  • Your workload is starting to get overwhelming and the quality of your life is suffering.

Hiring Virtual Assistants solves a lot of problems and actually brings many benefits. For example, a full-time Virtual Assistant will cost you 25%-30% of the cost of an in-house employee. A Virtual Assistant will have their own equipment and software, and will not take up any precious office space, so overhead costs are cut down as well. Organizations like MyOutDesk cover HR concerns, benefits, and even things like paid time off; while all you do is pay your monthly subscription.

Still curious about MyOutDesk Virtual Assistants? Schedule your Go Remote Business Strategy Session now to learn more!

The Stats: Blended Teams Outperform Competitors

Stanford Studies have shown that remote workers show increased productivity by 16%. Those who work from home seem to be more focused with fewer distractions. They also found that employees working in open offices took 62% more sick days than virtual employees.

Deloitte’s Millennial Survey 2017 found that remote work arrangements are “strongly linked to improved performance and employee retention.” Furthermore, 38% of respondents reported they were likely to leave their current employer within the next two years, with much citing work/life balance and flexibility as major contributing factors.

Large companies are benefitting from using a blended employment model. In fact, a new regulation stemming from the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act has given us a clearer picture of the extent to which some of the largest U.S. companies employ global talent.

You might be surprised at the high percentages of global talent that successful companies have reported so far:

  • Kellogg: 80%
  • General Electric: 66%
  • United Technologies: 68%
  • Whirlpool: 80%
  • Merck: 55%
  • Honeywell: 58%
  • Hanes: 80%
  • Mattel: 78%
  • Wal-Mart: 35%

If these major companies employ this strategy, there is no reason that you cannot for your own business as well.

Implications of Outsourcing: Virtual Assistants + Traditional Employees = Growth

Employing a Virtual Assistant means that the company is making an investment for the entire team and looking to achieve the next level of excellence and performance. A Virtual Assistant is a full-time addition to the organization, but they will work with you virtually. They can shoulder specific daily responsibilities, help maintain smooth operations, and allow the physical team more freedom to focus on their work.

Imagine not needing to take every distracting phone call anymore, until a relevant call is forwarded to you!

We’re helping to level the business playing field by helping small & medium-sized businesses offshore as the big companies have for years. It doesn’t mean that jobs are going away, but it does mean that more work is available and more income is generated because entrepreneurs finally have the affordable help they need to close more transactions & generate more commissions.

Don’t do this alone. Come out stronger with MyOutDesk.

Virtual Assistants & Blended Teams

When we founded MyOutDesk 15

years ago, we realized that a virtual assistant living in the Philippines could do all of the clerical work online that an assistant could here in the USA for a fraction of the cost, and when we started helping small businesses to hire them we realized that it was a win-win proposition for everyone.

Virtual assistants have all the qualifications (and often more) than local labor but at 1/3 the cost — which means you can afford to hire better help for a lower price, and you can afford to employ MORE of that help to grow your business. They’re high-quality labor, with a great education and an outstanding work ethic, and available for wages that similarly qualified Americans typically won’t work for.

Blended teams are exciting because it finally means that entrepreneurs can employ a competitive advantage in their business formerly reserved only for top-tier manufacturing companies — like the folks who made your iPhone. Just like them, you’re able to delegate repetitive, non-dollar productive tasks to a virtual assistant, which in turn helps you focus your time & energy on what actually makes you money.

The fact that the Internet and other modernizations have globalized our economy gives you a chance to scale your business faster and further than ever before, using Virtual Assistant services. Demand for virtual talent is increasing because it works for most business owners. Simply put: it is good for business.

To learn more comprehensively about the blended business model (as well as other awesome strategy guides) schedule your Go Remote Business Strategy Session today and find our how a MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant can support you to boost your business.

Speed For LEADS: Your PACE Makes Or Breaks Your Business!

Accelerator, Inside Sales, MOD Virtual Assistants

How fast is your lead follow-up? If it’s more than 5 minutes, you’re losing business — and you’re losing a lot of it. Believe it or not, while many companies still cling to the belief that it’s good to “wait a few hours” so they don’t seem desperate, the truth is that if you don’t follow up within the first 5 minutes, you won’t make the sale.

In the Lead Response Management Study, Professor James Oldroyd performed an in-depth study of response times & contact rates and found that for every 5 minutes you wait, there’s roughly a 4x reduction in your chance of contacting the lead. If you wait more than an hour, your chances of contracting the lead are 10 times lower than if you’d called them in the first 5 minutes!

Keep in mind that 75% of prospects do business with the company that contacts them first. However, the average response time to an online lead is 44 hours and 50% of online leads never get a response! Why is there such a large disparity? In small businesses, the issue is usually that you’re busy with task-work and don’t have time to jump on new leads. With all the responsibilities on your plate, the lead response often falls to the bottom of the list when in fact it should be a priority.

Improve your speed to lead time and never miss an opportunity again. MyOutDesk Real Estate ISA Virtual Assistants can give you the leverage you need to boost your business. Schedule your ‘Grow Virtual’ Strategy Session to find out how.

According to studies, the odds of calling to contact a lead decrease by over 10 times in the first hour.


The odds of qualifying a lead in 5 minutes versus 30 minutes drop 21 times. And from 5 minutes to 10 minutes the dial to qualify odds to decrease 4 times.

 

Online leads are a great source to grow your business and yet, they are extremely underutilized.  Many leads get resold over FIVE TIMES mostly because business owners like you don’t call them. Many leads prospect several Realtors before settling on one but keep in mind that the first statistic we shared, 75% of prospects do business with the company that contacts them first!

A study by the Harvard Business Review revealed that contact within an hour of inquiry, you have 7x more of a chance to have a productive conversation compared to reaching out after over an hour, and compared to someone who waits 24 hours to contact a lead, you’re 60 times more likely.

In real estate, 64% of buyers and 66% of sellers end up working with the agent they speak with first, according to the National Association of Realtors. Those who are first-to-the-draw have a tremendous advantage.

As an example, let us tell you about one of our clients Amy and her ISA Virtual Assistant Rex. Rex is in charge of calling leads as soon as they enter their system. His speed to lead is extremely important and this sense of urgency was instilled in him from his first day with Amy. Aside from being tasked to make at least 100 calls a day, he is also given new leads that he must reach out to within 5 minutes of their query. Rex set 199 appointments in his first year alone and out of those, Amy has closed 142 transactions. This is 7 million in trackable sales volume and over $200,000 in GCI!

Amy, like many business owners we work with, simply could not take everything on herself. She realized that her team needed someone who could focus on their speed to lead time. So she hired and trained a Virtual Professional who could pick up the slack so she and the rest of her team could focus on what they needed to accomplish.

This is only one part of the whole speed-to-lead game, stay tuned as we will explore more strategies such as the best times of day to call leads, etc.

If you want to improve your speed to lead but know you can’t do it all yourself, book your ‘Grow Virtual’ Strategy Session with us today so we can have a conversation about how a MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant can help.

Don’t lift a finger, have Virtual Assistants launch your New Podcast Episodes! [Pt. 1]

How is it so that entrepreneurs in your networks are outpacing your own content production? They seem to whip up content instantly, like podcast episodes and social posts, throughout all major online media platforms.

Even on a tight budget, you can engage in a full-time digital media presence — and save time while producing high-quality content. It’s no secret that your competitors with media steam engines are leveraging assistant labor, namely virtual assistants.

Virtual Assistants are up to 70% less than the cost of a traditional employee and will work for you on a full-time basis. Virtual Assistants are the powerhouse behind quality podcasts, webinars, Youtube videos, Tweets, Facebook posts, Instagram photos, and Linkedin articles.

The Foolproof Method to Launch a Podcast with Virtual Assistants in Record-Timing: Instant Podcast Production 101

Like any entrepreneur, you have many content ideas and need to keep up with spreading your content everywhere. This is the recipe to produce and launch a Podcast immediately with a Virtual Assistant.

1) Introduction to the Re-Purpose System

The Re-Purpose System shows you how you can multiply your efforts and save time by repurposing content from one event or task. There are so many ways that your unique content can be proliferated out in the world when you have someone to do that cyber-legwork for you. 

Forming New Podcasts with Your Existing Content

To get started with making new podcast episodes, begin by taking inventory of all your unique content that you already have in storage: webinars, interviews, videos, guides, articles, and books.

Top talent Virtual Assistants bring you a huge return on investment.

2) Video Interviews boost your social media, video + podcast content

Double dip (or triple dip) on your content by conducting video interviews. A single video interview can be edited for unique content in Youtube, Facebook video snippets, podcasts, and more!

Any time you are conducting a video interview, it’s best to record the video at this point. You can repurpose that in so many ways, including extracting the audio for podcasts

If you already have content that you can discuss by yourself, you can record your own video to create ‘host-only podcast content.

Start with a guest on a recorded Zoom Webinar and have an arsenal of basic field questions related to your industry or an overall theme.

Once the guest is confirmed, set a pre-recording/live huddle where you (the host) and the guest would talk and figure out exactly what the topic is, and how it fits your niche.

Between planning, setting the guest, hosting, recording, and editing, that takes a lot of time. So this is where you insert a Virtual Assistant(s). They can organize these interviews, and all you have to do as the host is show up. After the interview, virtual assistants produce, edit, publish, and promote these episodes on your behalf.

Software needed for Podcast Production

Using the right software — here at MyOutDesk, we use Adobe Creative Suite for video editing (and eventually sound editing for podcasts).

 

3) Increase podcast visibility through Apple iTunes & Google Play

There are many easy ways and platforms to do a podcast but the easiest method so far is:

upload to a main, streaming platform that generates an RSS feed (such as Soundcloud or Podbean) — then which you can submit to BIG ones like iTunes Podcasts and Google Play, instead of uploading to these big ones one by one. A Virtual Assistant will maintain your accounts for these platforms and allow you to effortlessly publish quality content on a regular.

Adjusting to a Remote Work Setting: Understand the Tricks of the Trade from Professional Virtual Assistants

Administrative, Cannabis & Legal Marijuana, Financial Planning, Healthcare, Human Resources, Inside Sales, Insurance, Marketing, Marketing, MOD Virtual Assistants, Mortgage, Property Management, Real Estate, Technology

Tsedal Neeley, a professor at Harvard Business School, says that there are simple ways leaders can help their employees stay productive, focused, and psychologically healthy as they work from home at this time. The right technology tools and clear and constant communication are more important than ever. She recommends that managers do an official remote-work launch, carefully plan and facilitate virtual meetings, and pay extra attention to workers’ behavior. For individual contributors, it’s critical to maintain a routine but also embrace flexibility, especially if you’re in the house with family.

Make your transition to working from home smoother with a MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant. Schedule your GoRemote with MyOutDesk Virtual Assistants Strategy Session today to find out how.

Tricks of the Trade:  Professional Virtual Assistants Tell All

MyOutDesk Virtual Assistants are top talent, selected through a stringent vetting process. Some wisdom of getting familiar with remote work:

For many people, remote work is a new reality. How do corporate leaders, managers, and individual workers make this sudden shift? What can we do to maintain productivity, ease anxiety, and continue to effectively collaborate with both colleagues and external stakeholders? How quickly can we implement current best practices or develop new ones? Finally, could this big transition change the way we do business forever?

The vast majority of organizations are not well prepared to suddenly move their entire workforce into remote work, even though they’ve had portions of their organizations participate in dispersed work or even global collaboration. So no, this is an unprecedented type of scenario that we’re seeing today.

If you are a C-suite leader, CTO, manager, or head of a department the number one this you need to address is that you have to make sure that your infrastructure is set up to accommodate your workforce, meaning that you have the equipment, the technologies available, and that you’re prioritizing appropriately – who needs what very quickly and ensure that you have the capacity to deploy the equipment and also to start training people at scale.

If you’re a manager, you’re thinking along those lines as well, but you’re also asking the detailed questions to ensure that individuals have the preparation at the home front to ensure that every individual has the capacity to dial into the office if they need to do that, to get work done, to get through firewalls and things. You need to make sure that every individual has access to the devices that they need and the skills that they need to use their devices. And you need to make sure that no one feels left out. You have to make sure that everyone’s included.

Every team, every group has to have a launch. These are some of the fundamentals or success factors in teams and groups. For a scenario like working from home, it’s even more important to begin a new way of operating with these launches. My suggestion is to do it using some form of enabling media that has a visual element like video conferencing – maybe Zoom or Google Hangout, whatever you’re using in your organization. But something that can allow you to see other members of your group and you say to your team, “Hey, we have a new situation and I want us to talk about how should we communicate now that we’re on this new platform, how often should we communicate? What’s the best way for us to communicate? What are everyone’s preferences?”

Solicit the suggestions from your group and begin to reestablish a new way of engaging, a new way of communicating. Whatever you used to do, communication-wise, you want to increase those.

The other thing that you want to do is you want to establish how you’re going to remain connected formally as well as informally. One of the things that you’re going to lose when everyone is working from home, it’s going to be the water cooler conversations – the “let’s grab lunch together” or “let’s take a walk together” — that goes away. So you have to find ways to recreate this virtually.

Managers and colleagues need to ensure that everyone is adjusting to this transition well. Managers are not therapists and psychologists and they have to be very careful. But at the same time, managers have to be quite attuned to whether or not their employees are present, are connecting.

One of the biggest battles that managers are going to have as their employees or team members are now at home, is isolation. And they need to identify people that are isolating, that are withdrawing. They can identify those by seeing that people are withdrawn during regular meetings if they’re typically much more participative during group discourse. And suddenly they’re not, that’s a sign. If they’re much more verbose in their writing on email and suddenly they’re not, that’s a sign.

So once you observe that, it’s important to reach out and to check in to make sure that this is not a matter of people not knowing how to really engage and work remotely. Remote work is an actually learned skill. People don’t just do it well organically. So it’s important to help people, to coach people, to provide resources on how to do it well. So you have to figure out, is this a matter of people just don’t know how to do this and there’s a gap there that we need to fill, or is this because of isolation and dealing with world events? And if that’s the case, I would be prepared to connect people to employee resource groups to help people get through whatever struggles they may be going through that’s beyond the adjustment to working from home.

Flexibility is actually one of the greatest benefits of remote work. You can have these disciplined ways of starting your day and ending your day. Each individual can now adjust working habits to where they are most productive, as long as deadlines are met and commitments are kept. The most important thing is that managers have to trust their teams at 100%. You have to trust that people are working, that they are going to fulfill their responsibility. If you have hired and you have trained and you have competent people on your team, you give them full trust, you equip them, you support them, and your trust that they’re going to work. And you accept flexibility is part of the gift that comes with remote work, and you accept that their workday might look like an accordion and that is perfectly fine.

Ordinarily, productivity does not get affected by remote work. And in fact, the evidence we have is that productivity actually goes up with remote work. In order to stay focused, you must be disciplined, turn off all of the things that would draw us away and during a particular period, meaning cut off all access to external social media, television, etc. Do the things that you would do normally as you worked in the office, be very disciplined about those.

Keeping all these things in mind, it shouldn’t take too long for you or your team to adjust to a work-from-home set-up. You just need to keep supporting each other on a daily basis.

From the first moment we contacted MyOutDesk to discuss our needs for an ISA we knew we were in good hands. They have a great team of professionals that listened to our needs; they quickly set up... interviews and because of their vetting process, we had a difficult time choosing between them. Ultimately, we made our decision and couldn't be happier! Customer service all the way!read more

MyOutDesk is a top-tier outsourced resource partner. I personally have 10+ years of experience working with vendor resources in Big Tech, and the level of service that my current Real Estate firm has... received with MOD has exceeded my expectations. Paul Vasquez, our sales consultant was patient, accommodating, and took the time to answer all of my nitty-gritty questions. The onboarding and staff selection process was a breeze, and we were operational within 1-2 weeks. The resource provided was having a positive impact on the business on Day 1, and continues to be a valued member of our team. I can easily say that we're not just saving money, but a ton of time, by working with MOD.read more
