info_outlineRob Nickell stumbled upon the concept of virtual assistants accidentally while struggling to escape the day to day grind of his own real estate business. Now almost ten years later, he has perfected how to hire virtual assistants and built a thriving business around helping others do the same.
Listen as Steve interviews Rob on how his company Rocket Station executes an astonishing 48,000 hours of workforce labor every WEEK for business owners all over the world - all done remotely in a virtual environment while maintaining a strong focus on culture and core values.
Research Note: A recent Gartner poll showed that 48% of employees will likely work remotely at least part of the time after COVID-19 versus 30% before the pandemic.
Key Takeaways:

- Recognizing the signs that you should pivot your business
- Understanding your PNL and factoring in time as money
