Have You Gotten Burned with Overseas Staffing Before?

Prior to founding Kalutasan, we operated a very successful MSP for more than 20 years. In 2021, we sold our MSP after earning a spot for 3 years in a row on the Inc. 5000 list of Fastest Growing Companies in America. We achieved explosive growth in sales and profitability by following one little trick: leveraging overseas employees from the Philippines.

Staffing in the Philippines

I wished we had done this years before! We hired overseas resources before from Romania, India, and South America, and had gotten burned. The culture and English proficiency did not meet our standards, which caused lots of problems for our team and clients.

We learned that hiring from the Philippines was different. English is the primary business language in the Philippines, and Filipino culture perfectly aligns with cultures in western MSPs. The population of the Philippines is more than 100 million which results in a tremendous talent pool of qualified candidates. In addition, you will immediately save up to 55% in labor costs, which goes right to your bottom line!

The Current IT Landscape

I’m sure your MSP faces the challenges resulting from a dearth of qualified tech resources in the United States. Research firm Gartner found that 31% of employees in the IT space actively sought out a new job between July and September 2021. A report from training company Global Knowledge said that 76% of global IT decision makers reported critical gaps on their teams. You will continue to face staffing challenges if your strategy is to source and hire tech staff domestically!

Kalutasan Inc. can solve your staffing problems. Owned and operated by former MSP owners, Kalutasan has the answer to your staffing problems. We provide quality candidates from the Philippines that allow you to fill all your open roles and give you the time you need to be profitable as you grow your MSP.
