Yeah.

So what we did was we said, "Look, this is a monthly cost that you pay.

You only really need to pay it when you're s- when you're recruiting.

So you come on, you pay the $99," which I'm not, I'm not, I'm gonna bypass the 69 option because it's, it's gonna go away soon because there's such a better option now.

The 99, the $99, you pay $99.

You get access to the full database.

You can post a job and have people apply to your job, and then you interview them, or you can reach out to people.

Mm

And eventually, you started onlinejobs.ph. Why the Philippines? And then why is the Philippines an especially good place for solopreneurs and advanced freelancers to look for support?

So I started onlinejob.ph because people are listening to this audio, and then I start doing phone calls with people kind of like this, but back in 2006 and 2007.

And finding people just sucked.

It was terrible.

You had to go through an agency to find people, and it was bad, right? So to answer your question, why the Philippines? So taking a step even previous to that, I had tried all of the methods that were out there.

I had tried...

Odesk, which is now Upwork.

Why shouldn't I just use ClaudeCowork or Victor or any number of agentic apps out there to just do whatever I need?

I haven't used Upwork in

10 years.

And I was using them before Odesk even existed with Elance.

But I will say that anybody in the Philippines who has a profile in Upwork also has a profile in online jobs.

I know that.

And they're hoping to find a job from online jobs and get themselves away from Upwork permanently.

Because they can make more money through it? There's a couple things going on.

Is there a reason why that wouldn't be an acceptable way to filter? They stamped that out for some reason.
