I am having difficulty finding virtual assistant via upwork to do basic shit... they fuck shit up, either intentionally to add time to the sheet or are really ineffective... I can't imagine paying $10/hr for what I'm asking but I might do it.... One tried to renegotiate terms (extort) in the middle of a gig, I fired him on the spot, no pay... Another, I think she's just completely half ass'ing or idiotic, but I told her that I would not pay her for the work that I have to correct, she did not follow instructions, and I'm giving her a chance to review and resubmit before I fire her... I'm getting sick of this but need to find a solution in order to scale. How do you guys do it?

Try other platforms, such as People Per Hour or Fivver.

Or maybe OnlineJobs.ph for hiring Philipinos exclusively.

Best of luck

Hey, I can help you with that.

I sent you my portfolio.

I can absolutely help you with this and you will only have to pay me if the results are satisfactory.

Try I am a Rosie or zirtual both are virtual assistant platforms.

Rule number 1 pay - what kind of dude are you not paying for work people have done . Respect the time they have put in - the problem is you not them .

Rule 2 - people are going to over charge just live with that - and don’t bother about paying 30% more
