"Hired on the spot, $10K in 7 days"

Hiring was always a nightmare—months wasted, bad candidates from agencies. Todd showed me one person, I hired her on the spot, she started next day. Eight clients signed in the first week. Nearly $10,000 cash collected. Can't ask for more than that.

Kai Cromwell, Owner, New Seas

"Relief, bandwidth, and better sales immediately"

Alex Lathery, Co-Owner, Cincinnati Painting Co.

"95% trained in 4 days, saved 20 hours weekly"

I was stretched thin doing sales, ops, and client work. Ellen came in and within four days understood everything, found bottlenecks I missed, built tracking systems, and now manages the entire team. Saving 20+ hours weekly. Absolute beast hire.

"Freed up 30 hours weekly, immediately"

I was doing everything myself—writing posts, managing clients, end-to-end content. It capped my capacity to grow. Todd found someone in two days who picked up nuances immediately. Now saves me 20-30 hours weekly. She handles entire client relationships solo.

Abishek, entrepreneur, associated businesses

"Long-term fit, not just renting somebody"

Mundane follow-ups and calls were killing my scale. Most VA agencies feel void of humanity—just qualifications on paper. Cascade found the human fit, the cultural match. It's real matchmaking for long-term partnerships. Now I have peace of mind and capacity to grow.

Benson Behen, Owner, Gramercy Capital

"Few hours back daily, operations finally handled"

I tried other agencies—all failed. Wrong people, no communication, disappeared after payment. Todd stayed involved, found exactly who I needed, freed up hours daily handling admin and SEO tasks. Now I focus on strategy instead of drowning in operations.

We handle the entire hiring pipeline from global sourcing to fit interview, so you get the right VA without the hassle.

90-Day Performance Guarantee

If your hire isn't executing, we replace them free. You're not buying a resume—you're buying results that last.

Marketing Executors, Not Just Assistants

We audit your CRMs, tools, and workflows to implement AI powered automations that simplify backend operations.

Built For Long-Term Scaling

Monthly strategy sessions help you delegate smarter, and remove operational bottlenecks as you scale.

Corey Vandenberg
Owner of Clixsy
Rapid team scaling with top-tier SEO talent
Before working with Lodestar
Corey was stretched thin running Clixsy while trying to scale—but every attempt to hire ate up hours sorting applications, scheduling interviews, and rejecting misfit candidates. The time investment never matched the output, and growth stayed bottlenecked by bandwidth.
After working with lodestar
We placed multiple SEO leads and division-level talent who hit the ground running. Corey's team rapidly scaled in both size and skill level - accomplishing Q1 and Q2 goals months ahead of schedule.
Alex Lathery
Co-Owner of Cincinnati Painting Co
Conversion rates soared within two weeks or working with Lodestar
Before working with Lodestar
Alex’s team was overwhelmed with calls, estimates, and admin work, leaving his operating partner stretched too thin. Slow follow-ups dragged down conversion rates and stalled the company’s growth.
After working with lodestar
We placed a VA who quickly took over inbound calls and booking estimates, boosting lead-to-estimate conversions almost immediately. She also streamlined their systems and took on extra responsibilities, freeing the team to focus on sales and scaling.
Cory Peterson
Owner of Gutter Tuneup
From losing leads to scaling with VAs—even after a bumpy start
Before working with Lodestar
Cory was taking every phone call himself, which capped his growth. He tried an inbound call service, but they didn't know his business or his market—costing him 10–20% of leads. That kind of leak adds up fast.
After working with lodestar
We placed a VA Cory could train directly. Calls answered went up, more leads got booked, and revenue followed. When the first placement didn't work out, we had a replacement in 3–4 days—and that guy's been crushing it ever since.
Kai Cromwell
Owner of New Seas
First candidate shown, hired on the spot, started next day—and collected $10K in the first week.
Before working with Lodestar
Kai was launching a new Reddit service that could drive 30-40% of revenue, but had no one to execute it. Past hiring attempts through headhunters and offshoring agencies took 2-3 months, delivered 8-10 bad candidates before finding one good fit, and wasted massive time.
After working with lodestar
We placed Sophie—first candidate shown, hired on the spot, started next day. She brought niche Reddit experience Kai didn't even know she had. Result: 8 clients signed in 7 days, nearly $10,000 cash collected, and she's now on track to lead a division.
Noah Igler
Owner of Sustain Media
In 4 days of working with Lodestar, 90% of operations were handled
Before working with Lodestar
Noah was overwhelmed—handling sales, client work, ops, and contractors. Critical tasks slipped, systems got messy, and constant context-switching left him drained with no time to grow the agency.
After working with lodestar
We placed an operations manager VA who quickly mastered SOPs, fixed bottlenecks, and built systems, automations, and a CRM. She now manages contractors, keeps delivery on track, and saves Noah 20+ hours a week—freeing him to focus on sales, scaling, and long-term growth.
Jason Davis
Owner of Makarios Marketing
20 hours a week saved within two weeks of working with Lodestar
Before working with Lodestar
Jason was stuck in the weeds—juggling admin tasks, emails, social media, and SEO client work—all while trying to grow his agency. Previous attempts to hire through other agencies led to poor communication, mismatched candidates, and zero support after the invoice was paid.
After working with lodestar
We helped Jason restructure his team, eliminate blind spots, and placed a VA who immediately took over admin, proposals, social scheduling, and SEO tasks. Now, Jason has reclaimed hours of his day, scaled delivery, and is focused on high-level strategy and growth—with a reliable system to keep building.
Joe Wiseman
Owner of WiseLead Digital
From drowning in task work to signing clients with confidence
Before working with Lodestar
Joe was buried in low-level execution—no consistent processes, no documentation, and a mental backlog that made signing new clients feel like a burden. Every new deal meant a hundred more tasks on his plate, and it was dragging down both his capacity and his enthusiasm to grow.
After working with lodestar
A proactive VA who works independently, plus monthly strategy calls to sharpen delivery. His words: "10 out of 10."
Abishek
Tech Enthusiast and Entrepreneur
End to end client management handled - finally unlocking agency growt
Before working with Lodestar
Abishek was doing everything himself—writing posts, managing clients, and handling content end-to-end—which capped his ability to take on new business. Attempts to hire through Upwork and Fiverr led to wasted time, poor fits, and low-quality output.
After working with lodestar
We placed a VA who seamlessly joined the team, took charge of client content and relationships, and now saves Abishek 20–30 hours a week—freeing him to focus on growth.
Benson Behen
Owner of Gremercy Capitcal
No more mundane administrative work, and more time to focus on sales
Before working with Lodestar
Benson was drowning in mundane follow-up tasks—texts, calls, and operational details that didn't require his expertise but ate up his day. As his real estate acquisitions scaled, handling these menial tasks himself made zero sense, and paying US-based help wasn't viable either.
After working with lodestar
We placed a VA who brought both skill and cultural fit—not just a task-taker, but a long-term team member. Benson now has peace of mind, can focus on aggressive growth and system innovation, and has the capacity to take on more volume without feeling swamped.

We placed multiple SEO leads and division-level talent who hit the ground running. Corey's team rapidly scaled in both size and skill level - accomplishing Q1 and Q2 goals months ahead of schedule.
Alex Lathery
Co-Owner of Cincinnati Painting Co
Conversion rates soared within two weeks or working with Lodestar
Before working with Lodestar
Alex’s team was overwhelmed with calls, estimates, and admin work, leaving his operating partner stretched too thin. Slow follow-ups dragged down conversion rates and stalled the company’s growth.
After working with lodestar
We placed a VA who quickly took over inbound calls and booking estimates, boosting lead-to-estimate conversions almost immediately. She also streamlined their systems and took on extra responsibilities, freeing the team to focus on sales and scaling.
Cory Peterson
Owner of Gutter Tuneup
From losing leads to scaling with VAs—even after a bumpy start
Before working with Lodestar
Cory was taking every phone call himself, which capped his growth. He tried an inbound call service, but they didn't know his business or his market—costing him 10–20% of leads. That kind of leak adds up fast.
After working with lodestar
We placed a VA Cory could train directly. Calls answered went up, more leads got booked, and revenue followed. When the first placement didn't work out, we had a replacement in 3–4 days—and that guy's been crushing it ever since.
Kai Cromwell
Owner of New Seas
First candidate shown, hired on the spot, started next day—and collected $10K in the first week.
Before working with Lodestar
Kai was launching a new Reddit service that could drive 30-40% of revenue, but had no one to execute it. Past hiring attempts through headhunters and offshoring agencies took 2-3 months, delivered 8-10 bad candidates before finding one good fit, and wasted massive time.
After working with lodestar
We placed Sophie—first candidate shown, hired on the spot, started next day. She brought niche Reddit experience Kai didn't even know she had. Result: 8 clients signed in 7 days, nearly $10,000 cash collected, and she's now on track to lead a division.
Noah Igler
Owner of Sustain Media
In 4 days of working with Lodestar, 90% of operations were handled
Before working with Lodestar
Noah was overwhelmed—handling sales, client work, ops, and contractors. Critical tasks slipped, systems got messy, and constant context-switching left him drained with no time to grow the agency.
After working with lodestar
We placed an operations manager VA who quickly mastered SOPs, fixed bottlenecks, and built systems, automations, and a CRM. She now manages contractors, keeps delivery on track, and saves Noah 20+ hours a week—freeing him to focus on sales, scaling, and long-term growth.
Jason Davis
Owner of Makarios Marketing
20 hours a week saved within two weeks of working with Lodestar
Before working with Lodestar
Jason was stuck in the weeds—juggling admin tasks, emails, social media, and SEO client work—all while trying to grow his agency. Previous attempts to hire through other agencies led to poor communication, mismatched candidates, and zero support after the invoice was paid.
After working with lodestar
We helped Jason restructure his team, eliminate blind spots, and placed a VA who immediately took over admin, proposals, social scheduling, and SEO tasks. Now, Jason has reclaimed hours of his day, scaled delivery, and is focused on high-level strategy and growth—with a reliable system to keep building.
Joe Wiseman
Owner of WiseLead Digital
From drowning in task work to signing clients with confidence
Before working with Lodestar
Joe was buried in low-level execution—no consistent processes, no documentation, and a mental backlog that made signing new clients feel like a burden. Every new deal meant a hundred more tasks on his plate, and it was dragging down both his capacity and his enthusiasm to grow.
After working with lodestar
A proactive VA who works independently, plus monthly strategy calls to sharpen delivery. His words: "10 out of 10."
Abishek
Tech Enthusiast and Entrepreneur
End to end client management handled - finally unlocking agency growt
Before working with Lodestar
Abishek was doing everything himself—writing posts, managing clients, and handling content end-to-end—which capped his ability to take on new business. Attempts to hire through Upwork and Fiverr led to wasted time, poor fits, and low-quality output.
After working with lodestar
We placed a VA who seamlessly joined the team, took charge of client content and relationships, and now saves Abishek 20–30 hours a week—freeing him to focus on growth.
Benson Behen
Owner of Gremercy Capitcal
No more mundane administrative work, and more time to focus on sales
Before working with Lodestar
Benson was drowning in mundane follow-up tasks—texts, calls, and operational details that didn't require his expertise but ate up his day. As his real estate acquisitions scaled, handling these menial tasks himself made zero sense, and paying US-based help wasn't viable either.
After working with lodestar
We placed a VA who brought both skill and cultural fit—not just a task-taker, but a long-term team member. Benson now has peace of mind, can focus on aggressive growth and system innovation, and has the capacity to take on more volume without feeling swamped.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Why choose you over other staffing agencies?

Unlike most agencies, we've actually done this. I scaled my own marketing company from zero to $50K/month while working part-time solely by building, training, and mentoring international teams. After proving the model in my own business, I'm now replicating it for other founders, including multi-7-figure companies where we place division leads and account executives. We bring real operational experience, not just recruiting theory.

A Proven System, From A Proven Founder

I scaled my marketing company to $50K/month while working a full-time job. The only reason that was possible? I built an international team of elite offshore talent who executed without me babysitting them.

The business ran itself. I focused on sales and growth. My team handled everything else.

After helping a few agency owner friends restructure their operations with the right hires, word spread. Now we've placed dozens of specialists and division-level leaders for multi-7-figure agencies.

The companies winning right now aren't the ones with the biggest local payroll; they're the ones who figured out how to leverage world-class international talent before their competitors did.
