I love this podcast and what John Jonas said about outsourcing to the subcontinent hit the nail on the head. I don’t know how much time, energy & frustration I have experienced outsourcing to India and Pakistan.

From botched campaigns to mystery code injected into my website. I only just discovered outsourcing to the Philippines. I will take your advice and work only with Philippine contractors from now on. Thanks for validating my decision!

Hey guys, Great podcast even if your outsource guru comes across as Mr Angry at times :)I have tried a few and I have to say, he is right that the best work I have had done for me has come from the Philippines because previously I have had terrible, I mean really terrible experiences with freelance sites and freelancers from India so this podcast was a great source of info. Cheers!

Funny – I remember listening to this a few months ago. Indeed I have since found this advice to be very useful – I now have two VA working for me even though I fell flat on my face before with VAs from GetFriday (India).

Awesome interview. What an eye opener. I just barely started IM (3 months or so ago) and as fun as it is – it really takes time to learn each useful skill. The interview really got me thinking: do I really need to become an expert on everything that has to do with IM?

Thanks for the awesome tips!
