I built Brooks Academy from a single photography course into a catalogue of twelve courses across three niches. The content side came naturally — teaching is what I love. But the operational side was a constant drag. Every new course launch meant weeks of video editing, slide formatting, caption writing, email sequences, and affiliate management. I was spending more time in post-production than in front of the camera.
A student in one of my Facebook groups mentioned they had hired a Filipino VA through OnlineBestJobs.ph specifically for course production. I looked into it and posted that same evening. The response was overwhelming. I narrowed it down to three finalists, all of whom had hands-on experience with Kajabi, CapCut, and email marketing tools — exactly what I needed.
Rhea has been with me for fourteen months now. She edits my course videos, handles my weekly newsletter, manages student questions in our community, and coordinates with my graphic designer. What used to take me a full month to launch now ships in under two weeks. My revenue per launch has grown because the production quality has genuinely improved, and I'm releasing content twice as fast. Hiring through OnlineBestJobs.ph is the single decision that moved Brooks Academy from a side project to a real business.
