“The way it was laid out made everything easy. Remote Leverage handled the heavy lifting, brought me highly qualified people, and helped me move fast. I’d absolutely recommend them.”
David Eclevia
Mobile Mixologist
Background
Mobile Mixologist brings craft cocktail bars to private parties, weddings, festivals, and corporate events. The goal is simple: let hosts feel like guests at their own events while David’s team handles drinks and service with polish.
As demand grew, David’s mornings disappeared into inbox triage, small admin tasks, and calls. Inspired by The 4-Hour Workweek and nudged by friends who had great results with VAs, he decided to try Remote Leverage after seeing an ad and getting a strong referral.
“I wanted my time back so I could work on the business, not just in it.”
The Challenges
This was David’s first time hiring a VA. He wanted someone bilingual in Spanish, aligned with his time zone, and capable of handling sensitive information with trust and professionalism. He was open about initial doubts: hiring across borders and sharing private data felt risky. He needed a process that was simple, fast, and safe.
The Remote Leverage Experience
Sales to hire was faster than expected. After onboarding with Michelle, David moved into hiring with Ivan.
Clear scoping: The team confirmed time zones, language needs, and day-to-day tasks.
Vetted candidates: Within a short window, David interviewed multiple finalists.
Quality across the board: “They were all 8, 9, and 10 out of 10.” Degrees, professionalism, and great energy stood out.
Language fit: English levels were excellent. A light Spanish accent was a plus for bilingual calls.
Hands-on coordination: Michelle and Ivan stayed close via email and text with gentle reminders to keep momentum and secure David’s top choice.
“Remote Leverage took 90 percent of the work off our plate. For the price, it was totally worth it.”
The Results
David hired a bilingual Latin America–based administrative VA who started quickly and integrated smoothly. Early wins:
Morning admin and routine calls off David’s plate
Faster client response times
Clearer delegation from HR to the new VA so HR can focus on building the team
More founder time for operations and scaling corporate events
“It happened faster than I imagined. Now we’re rolling.”
