PSSST... We're looking for a personal assistant. If you know anyone, send them this way/share this post with them...
Are you…Flexible? Fun? Dependable? Detail Oriented? (No seriously I’m talking I will intentionally be putting in a grammatical error in this post and that should bug you) Service driven and have a huge caring heart?
We are looking for someone who will essentially have 2 main areas that they are focusing on - take personal work off my plate (mom/wifey things that do NOT bring joy) and then help clean and turn rooms for Airbnb.
Then either the position will move into more of taking personal work off or doing cleanings full time depending on what area you shine better in.
Hi! Thanks for checking out our newest role at Happy Hoster...
To start, I want you to know that this position description will take you 20+ minutes to read, and then 2+ hours to apply, and 10+ hours during the interview process. (I want to respect your time so you know the commitment it will take to apply for this role).
We have multiple automatic disqualification points in the hiring process…(no surprises, promise).
Why? Because if you’re going to work with us, I want this to be a fruitful collaboration, where everyone wins.
If we just used the “traditional” hiring methods. You wouldn’t know if you liked working here, until it was too late...
That said, We're NOT looking for worker bees or clock-in-clock-out employees who are just working for a paycheck...
In other words, if you would work for a company you hate just to collect a wage, keep looking - you’ll never fit in here.
We ARE looking for something very particular... And we'd rather you only apply if you fit the bill, so keep reading and if you’re interested at the end - pay close attention to the directions and apply...
The first automatic disqualification is in the application - more on why later in this “why should I work at Happy Hoster” sales letter.
One more thing...
Everyone starts at a base wage, and as you level up and get promoted you can earn up to 10x of your base wage + commission/bonuses + we profit share 10% of each quarter's profits with all qualified team members.
That being said this position STARTS at $10/hr...now before you go running for the hills I want to emphasize that there is massive room for growth. Meaning more responsibility, more leadership opportunities and obviously more pay. (See above - completely applies to this position as well).
Let’s go into a tad bit about who you’ll primarily report to...
I'm Kate Mikado, Copy Ninja, Design Hacker, 2nd in Command of Funnel LLC, CEO of Happy Hoster, and Airbnb Manager. But first and foremost before all that I’m a dedicated wife and mother and that ALWAYS comes before work (within reason). In case you didn’t get it I wear a LOT of hats (my time is NOT crunched cause I’m “busy” checking my email).
I'm the co-founder of multiple 6+ & 7+ Figure companies including this one, Happy Hoster. In my former agency, we helped 12+ Companies create 7+ Figure Funnels, and taught 11,973+ how to Add 6+ Figures to their business using funnels...
I'm going to let you in on a bit of a secret, most applicants never look at the actual job posting - SO... before we get started I want to lay out a few ground rules to actually get you in the door...
#1 - Read the entire listing, it will save you a lot of time & headache from the ‘Hunger Games' you'll be going through (May the odds me ever in your favor..)
#2 - I am random (and kinda nerdy)... If you've got a problem with that... Keep looking, this company will fully repel you (or at least I will)
#3 - Somewhere in here is a secret code phrase that you'll need to include in your application (plus that pesky grammar mistake, brownie points if you find ones that I missed)...You'll put that into the 3rd question "other info you want us to know" - you can also add anything else in there, but it must start with the code phrase...
Okay...
Since you're still here that means you might just be the peanut butter to my jelly, the mac to my cheese or whatever else comes in pairs.
If you feel confident you can still get the role with us…
Let’s get into my mission and vision:
It’s my vision that through the work I do that I help solve the world’s major problems. Meaning I’m not just going to support good causes, I’m going to be doing the work that makes the cause irrelevant.
Things like drinkable water getting to everyone who needs it.
Food to anyone who is hungry.
That everyone has a warm and safe environment to rest their head…
You get the idea.
I know it’s ambitious but through the companies I work in and how I show up in the world I’m looking to find and connect with people that will help make this happen.
Our Company Values:
Be Consistent in everything you do by following the SOPs. Checking your work along the way, Create/Update SOPs as systems evolve.
Over Communicate and ask to have anything clarified when you need it. Ask for step-by-step instructions or examples so that you're always clear on what needs to be done.
Simplify everything by eliminating the unnecessary and focusing on what matters most.
Start by Adding Value in every interaction, share a resource, strategy or framework that could help before making a formal offer.
We can scale with Systems so always look for ways to create structure around the systems we have and build systems when we need them.
We can only grow as much as our Partners do, so in order to grow together we must focus on true collaboration.
When we do anything we make sure it's Profitable for us and for our partners, and the consumer.
Validate ideas and projects by making sure they're Scalable.
Adapt to the changing market by Innovating on existing ideas instead of trying to create something new.
Always Test everything, just because something worked before doesn't mean it will work now. Try new things and even old things to see if there's a way to increase results or get a better response.
Mastery is a journey of growing and focusing on replicating what we already know works, stay in your lane and focus on your genius so that this partnership can grow as a whole.
Life is a Game, let's be serious about having fun in our meetings, in our projects, in our partnership, in our lives. If it's not fun it's not worth focusing time and attention towards.
Now a bit more about me... (Then we'll get into the "role, responsibilities, results, and requirements" portion...)
I LOVE reading... fiction and nonfiction are both fair game - right now on a non-fiction kick. Speaking of kick, I’m a green belt in Tae Kwon Do and love martial arts. When I’m not working on one of many businesses, I enjoy playing board games, relaxing in a hammock, or doing something creative.
I'm looking for someone who loves a challenge and is willing to go above and beyond in their work.
This position will have some consistency and some variation. Certain tasks will be repeated on a weekly/daily basis. Others will pop out of nowhere and only need to be done once.
I work on an accelerated schedule and I expect things done right in sometimes unimaginable short periods of time...usually coming down from my husband Hawk who wants things yesterday. (Sometimes I really only got 4 mins - eh).
But don't worry, it's not like the world will come to an end if you're 7 seconds late... 10s maybe... JK...
That's just my J coming out. (See IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT ME)
So I'm looking for someone who can handle a fast-paced, high-pressure, got a million things going on at one that will require you to bring your A-game.
Think fast pitches and curveballs on the regular.
You should be somewhat of an intrepreneur type (entrepreneurial spirit without the desire to be the boss) who can anticipate what I need before I do (thinking fast isn’t my strong suit in the biz/personal world - sports is another story).
IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT ME:
I hope this letter has either got you so excited you can't help but jump out of your seat wanting to know more about the actual role at our company (scroll down just a tad)...
Or in the odd case that you kept reading because you were curious but have no intention of actually applying that it entertained you among the horridly boring job postings you've been (possibly mindlessly) culling through, then I wish you the best...
Take Care,
Kate Mikado
P.S. The Keyword (well it's a phrase) for Question #3 you need to even get considered is “Happy Hosting for a Happy Home”
