Are you hiring virtual assistants just to save money — or are you missing a massive opportunity to scale your business, reclaim your time, and create real leverage? In this episode, Cameron Linford reveals how strategic staffing transforms overwhelmed entrepreneurs into focused growth leaders.
In this episode of The Daily Mastermind, host George Wright III sits down with Cameron Linford, CEO and Founder of Yoked Staff, to explore how virtual assistants can become strategic growth partners rather than simple task-doers. Cameron shares how his journey began by building a bookkeeping company alongside his wife and how their deep connections in the Philippines allowed them to create meaningful opportunities for highly skilled global talent. What started as bookkeeping evolved into a full-service virtual staffing company supporting everything from social media management and graphic design to engineering and special projects.
The conversation dives into the true power of leverage, highlighting real-world client success stories where business owners gained time, increased revenue, improved work-life balance, and scaled operations faster by hiring the right talent. Cameron also explains why proper matching, onboarding, and long-term development are critical to maximizing VA performance. Listeners will gain practical insights into how to strategically architect a workforce that grows alongside their business.
