Who are Nathan and Connor?

Nathan Hirsch and Connor Gillivan are 10+ year entrepreneurs. They built their first eCommerce business to $25 million in total sales using virtual assistants. Then, they scaled and sold their second company, FreeeUp, with a 100% remote team of virtual assistants. They have been recognized on 250+ podcasts such as Entrepreneur on Fire and were on the Entrepreneur 360 List for two years in a row commending them as one of the best entrepreneurial companies in America. At their core, they are systems entrepreneurs always looking for new ways to automate and outsource to virtual assistants and talented professionals.

Why trust us to teach you about partnerships?

We’re entrepreneurs just like you.

For 10+ years, we’ve been working together scaling digital businesses with remote teams and we’ve had to learn from our own mistakes.

For years, we struggled, hired the wrong people, ran into turnover, and were frustrated with the current education out there surrounding hiring and scaling with virtual assistants.

With our first eCommerce business, we scaled it to a team of 30+ virtual assistants and sold over $25 million on the Amazon Marketplace.

With our second business, FreeUp, we scaled it into a team of 45+ virtual assistants and $12 million in yearly revenue from a $5,000 initial investment.

In 2019, we sold FreeUp and the team of 45+ virtual assistants to The HOTH.

After scaling and selling FreeUp, we decided it was time that we share our exact systems for how we did it so other entrepreneurs could replicate our success.

We wanted to create a better online education platform where entrepreneurs could really learn how to scale with a remote team and avoid all of the pitfalls we had to fight through.

A big part of growing and selling FreeUp was the Partnership Program we had developed. At its peak, we had over 100 partners that we were regularly collaborating with on a quarterly basis. It added tremendous value to the marketing of FreeUp and helped us to reach thousands of new customers.

Over the years, we tinkered with processes we found to work best and we implemented virtual assistants within the system using SOPs and tested methods to make the process of running the Partnership Program simpler and less time consuming.

In this playbook, we share our years of experimentation and success with you so you too can set up a successful Partnership Program for your business.

We hope you’ll give us a shot!

Sincerely,

Nathan Hirsch & Connor Gillivan, Co-founders of Outsource School
