About Five Star Assistants

We're a staffing company that builds and manages offshore teams for U.S. businesses.

The short version: we find, vet, place, and manage overseas talent so you can grow your team at 60-70% less than domestic hiring. No placement fees. No recruiting headaches. No HR liability on your end.

How we got here

FSA started because of a problem I kept running into. I was running a digital marketing agency and hired overseas talent to help with operations. It worked. Other business owners saw what I built and asked me to do the same thing for them. So I did.

What I learned pretty fast is that the talent exists. The Philippines has sharp, experienced professionals across nearly every role you'd hire for. The problem was never the people. The problem was the infrastructure around them: sourcing, vetting, onboarding, accountability, and retention. Most business owners don't have the time or systems to build that out themselves. That's what FSA handles.

What we actually do

We source candidates, screen them, run interviews, and present vetted finalists. You do a short interview and pick. From there, we handle time tracking, productivity monitoring, payroll, and ongoing support. The talent works under FSA, not under you, so there's no employer liability on your side.

One hourly rate. Everything else is handled underneath.

Who we work with

Our clients are typically $2M+ businesses that need more than one hire. Not someone looking for a single inbox manager. Businesses that need SDR teams, back-office buildouts, marketing departments, customer service operations, or dedicated specialists across roles that don't require a physical U.S. presence.

Industries range from home services to SaaS to e-commerce to professional services. The common thread isn't the vertical. It's the volume.

What makes us different

We don't charge placement fees. We don't dump a stack of resumes and disappear. And we don't pretend every overseas hire is going to be an A-player. The talent pool is huge and uneven. Our job is to filter for the ones who actually perform, then give you the infrastructure to keep them accountable and productive long-term.

That's the whole pitch. If you need a team and want it done right, we should talk.
