My company will weather this economic recession for one main reason:
50% of our employees are located in the Philippines and earn $10,000 a year on average ($5 / hr).
No employment taxes, no workers compensation, no healthcare.
Also loyal, hardworking, kind team members.

We have 20 employees overseas.
Total annual cost: $200,000
Cost of 20 American employees: $50k avg + $15k tax, et each.
Total cost: $1,300,000
Same amount of productivity, 15% the overhead.

I sourced and hired the folks in the Philippines using supportshepherd.com.
They build the job description, vet the candidates and walk you through the entire hiring process.

We have these folks in several departments:
Customer service
Collections
Property improvements
Underwriting
Data entry
Logistics
Even VAs for our management team.
Anything an American can do from a computer, these folks can do from the other side of the world.

This will revolutionize small business over the next 10 years.
Every single large corporation already does this and soon enough if you're a small business and DON'T do this you'll get left behind.

We still have several Americans on our team, especially in management positions - and we'll continue to employe more over the years as we grow.
But for mid-level roles these folks are as good as it gets.

To all the woke idiots who don't understand scale:
These folks are earning 3x as much as opportunities over there (without a 2 hour commute on crowded busses) so it is impacting a TON of lives for the better.
Americans have plenty of opportunity for work, these folks don't.
