Overwhelmed and Drowning in Tasks? A VA Is the Bridge to No Broke Months

Are you overwhelmed by the fast growth of your business—or frustrated by how slow and inconsistent it feels to scale? In this episode of the No Broke Months Podcast, Dan Rochon dives into one of the biggest multipliers for business growth: virtual assistants. He breaks down how to find, hire, and retain world-class talent from anywhere in the world. You’ll hear real-life stories and actionable strategies to build a business that runs smoothly—even when you’re not involved in every detail. If you want to scale with more freedom and less stress, this episode is your roadmap.

What you’ll learn on this episode

• You’re not supposed to do it alone. A VA isn’t a luxury—it’s the first hire to reclaim your time and accelerate your growth.
• World-class talent is global. Hiring virtually allows your dollar to go further while unlocking access to incredibly skilled professionals.
• Start with belief. Before you can hire, you must believe you can figure it out. That mindset shift builds the foundation for growth.
• Lead generation funds your future team. You can't hire without revenue, and revenue comes from consistent lead generation.
• Treat your VAs as partners, not contractors. When VAs feel like part of the team, they perform with loyalty, leadership, and longevity.
• Use the right platforms. Dan recommends onlinejobs.ph, virtualstaff.ph, Upwork, and others depending on your project or long-term need.
• Culture is how you treat people. Hiring across continents works when your team shares values and communicates clearly.
• Your first 30 minutes every day should be with your team. A daily huddle builds connection, alignment, and real-time problem-solving.
• DISC assessments help you hire the right fit. Use behavioral tools to identify leadership qualities, attention to detail, or assertiveness.
• You can't grow until you let go. Learning to delegate—even when it feels uncomfortable—is the catalyst to sustainable growth.
