About The Guest(s):
Nazmul is a business owner based in Bangladesh. He has experience in outsourcing and has worked with various payment processing tools.
Summary:
In this episode of Outsource to Profits, Jamie and Nazmul discuss different methods of payment processing for outsourcing. They share their experiences with various tools and platforms, highlighting the pros and cons of each. They emphasize the importance of choosing the right payment processing method based on the specific needs of your business and the location of your talent.
Key Takeaways:
Upwork is a popular platform for outsourcing, but it may not be scalable for long-term, full-time employees.
Veeam is a payment processing tool that takes a fixed fee and processes payments in 3-5 days.
Payoneer is another tool that takes a percentage of the transaction and processes payments in 24 hours.
It is important for the recipient to have a strong banking relationship and credit for smooth payment processing.
Using platforms like Payoneer or Deal is easy and intuitive for project-based work, but for long-term and larger transactions, direct bank transactions are recommended.
The first transaction may require additional documents to establish a track record, but subsequent transactions will be smoother.

Episode 11 | Outsource to Profits Podcast
In this podcast episode, the speaker talks about a digital prospector that helps B2B businesses seize opportunities. The speaker, an industry expert with 21,000 LinkedIn connections, believes that the best opportunities come from people he meets at conferences, past customers, and current customers.
However, as a founder and CEO, he often neglects prospecting, which leads to a lack of sales pipeline coverage. The solution is to create a virtual prospector where offshore talent can take on the role of the founder and execute their strategies to reach the market.
This approach has been successfully tested by Sales for Life, Pipeline Signals, and Get Levrg, resulting in 1.4 million new opportunities for US professional services companies. The podcast also discusses the challenge of founder-led sales and emphasizes the importance of prioritizing prospecting.

Episode 10 | Outsource to Profits Podcast
Jamie, the author, shares his personal story as a founder-led sales organization and how it inspired him to write about subscale founders. His company, Pipeline Signals, sells to mid-market and enterprise clients and offers a virtual assistant as a go-to-market role.
As a founder, he still has to make discovery calls, write proposals, and follow up on deals. However, if he doesn't prioritize prospecting and following up on demos, he won't build consensus with the buying committee and hinder his future growth.
At Sales for Life, his marketing machine generated daily enterprise sales leads, but he became too busy and the business failed. Luckily, inbound leads saved him, but for most founders, prospecting becomes a part-time job and they get overwhelmed. Not utilizing virtual assistants means missing out on their benefits, like identifying customers in need of additional support.

MY JOURNEY
Why I started Get Levrg?
Financial acumen and a profit-first approach did not come naturally to me.
- I almost lost my business due to unprofitable growth
- I felt like a financial failure
I recognized that talent costs are critical for growth, but also a financial anchor. I was drowning to pay everyone but myself.
But I overcame my fears to think bold & different about how to scale profitably. My transformation five years ago started on a journey to profitability, evolved into offshore talent as an operating competitive advantage.
- Scaled two companies to 7-figure revenues, while profitable
- Achieved market-leading gross margins and CAC
- Scaled to new markets and customer segments I couldn’t otherwise serve with previous margins
- More profits, more retained earnings, more founder dividends
- Recaptured my passion for business
