The Challenge

The competitive landscape in the Palm Beach area is brutal, with numerous companies vying for the same customers. Hiring locally in the US proved to be a costly affair, with a limited talent pool and high salary demands. Victory Gardens required a cost-effective solution that aligned with their operational hours and cultural values. Additionally, the ability to delegate sales, administrative, and design tasks became crucial for gaining a competitive edge.

Solution with SkillGo

Victory Gardens turned to SkillGo for their nearshore virtual worker needs. The process began with the hiring of a remote sales assistant. SkillGo provided three well-curated candidates, and within less than 10 days, Victory Gardens hired a highly competent sales assistant from Latin America at a cost of just $2300 per month.
