Frequently Asked Questions
How does hiring remote staff from Bali actually work?
We manage the recruitment, screening, and shortlisting process based on your requirements. You interview the selected candidates and choose who fits your business best. Once confirmed, your remote staff member works directly with you while we handle HR structure and administrative support.
Are the remote staff fluent in English?
Yes. All candidates are screened for written and spoken English. Many have previous experience working with international businesses, ensuring clear communication and cultural understanding.
Will they work Indonesian business hours?
Yes. Our remote staff align their schedules with Indonesian time zones, including WIB, WITA, and WIT. We ensure sufficient overlap so your team operates smoothly during your standard business hours.
Is there a minimum contract period?
No. We operate on a flexible month-to-month model. There are no long-term lock-in contracts, giving Indonesian businesses the flexibility to scale up or down as needed.
What is included in the $8/hour rate?
The hourly rate covers the dedicated staff member's salary and basic HR administration. Depending on the role and level of experience required, rates may vary slightly. During your discovery call, we'll provide a clear breakdown with no hidden fees.
Can I hire part-time or full-time?
Yes. You can hire part-time remote staff, full-time dedicated staff, or project-based support. We tailor the setup to your business needs and workload.
What types of Indonesian businesses do you work with?
We support a wide range of businesses including agencies, trades, e-commerce brands, consultants, startups, professional services firms, and growing SMEs across Indonesia.
How quickly can I hire someone?
In most cases, we can begin shortlisting candidates within a few days after understanding your requirements. Hiring timelines typically depend on role complexity, but many clients onboard within 1-2 weeks.
What if the staff member is not a good fit?
If performance or cultural fit is not aligned, we work with you to resolve the issue. If needed, we can assist with a replacement process to ensure your business remains supported.
How is performance managed?
Your remote staff reports directly to you, just like an in-house employee. We recommend clear KPIs, weekly check-ins, and structured onboarding to ensure long-term success. We can also provide guidance on managing remote teams if required.
Do I need to provide equipment or software?
Typically, remote staff use their own equipment. You will provide access to your systems, tools, and software (such as Xero, CRM platforms, project management tools, etc.) as required for the role.
Is offshore staffing secure and compliant?
We follow structured hiring processes and confidentiality agreements. For sensitive roles, NDAs and data protection measures can be implemented to protect your business information.
How does offshore staffing compare to hiring locally in Indonesia?
Hiring offshore significantly reduces salary costs, superannuation, payroll tax, and office overhead. Many Indonesian businesses use offshore teams to handle operational support while keeping strategic roles locally.
Can I scale my offshore team over time?
Absolutely. Many Indonesian businesses start with one remote staff member and gradually build a small offshore team as operations grow. Our model is designed to support scalable growth.
Why choose Bali as an offshore location?
Bali offers a strong talent pool, cultural alignment with Indonesian businesses, and time zone compatibility. It has become a growing hub for remote professionals supporting international companies.
Is offshore staffing legal for Indonesian companies?
Yes, offshore staffing is legal for Indonesian companies. Many Indonesian businesses hire remote staff overseas as independent contractors or through offshore staffing partners. The key is ensuring the arrangement is structured correctly, with clear agreements, defined responsibilities, and proper compliance with Indonesian business regulations. Offshore staffing is commonly used by SMEs, agencies, and growing businesses looking to reduce operational costs while maintaining productivity. If structured properly, it is a legitimate and widely adopted business model in Indonesia.
What is the best way to hire remote staff for Indonesian SMEs?
The best way for Indonesian SMEs to hire remote staff is through a structured process: clearly define the role and outcomes, partner with a reliable offshore staffing provider, interview shortlisted candidates, set measurable performance indicators, and start with a flexible engagement model. SMEs benefit most when they treat offshore staff as long-term team members rather than short-term freelancers. A dedicated remote professional integrated into daily operations will deliver far stronger results than ad-hoc outsourcing. For many Indonesian small and medium businesses, starting with one dedicated remote staff member is often the smartest first step.
Is $8/hour realistic for quality staff?
Yes, in the right market. The cost of living and salary standards in Indonesia are significantly lower than in Indonesia, which makes $8/hour a competitive and fair rate locally while still being highly cost-effective for Indonesian businesses. At this rate, you can hire experienced professionals for roles such as virtual assistants, admin support, marketing assistants, bookkeeping support, and lead generation specialists. However, more specialised roles or senior-level positions may require a higher rate depending on experience and complexity. The key factor is not just the hourly rate, it is proper screening, clear KPIs, and structured onboarding that ensure you get real performance, not just affordability.
What are the risks of hiring offshore?
Like any hiring decision, offshore staffing comes with risks if not structured properly. Common risks include hiring without proper screening, poor communication expectations, no clear KPIs or accountability, cultural or workflow misalignment, and treating offshore staff as freelancers instead of team members. These risks are avoidable with a structured recruitment process, clear documentation, and regular performance reviews. When offshore staff are integrated properly with defined roles, measurable outcomes, and consistent communication, many Indonesian businesses find they become long-term, reliable team members. Offshore staffing is not about cheap labour. It is about building efficient, scalable teams with the right structure in place.
How much can Indonesian businesses actually save with offshore staff?
Savings depend on the role, but many Indonesian businesses reduce staffing costs by 50-70% compared to hiring locally. For example, an entry-level admin or support role in Indonesia may cost $55,000-$70,000 per year plus superannuation, payroll tax, leave entitlements, and office overhead. With offshore staffing starting from $8/hour, businesses can significantly reduce salary expenses while still maintaining dedicated, full-time support. Beyond salary savings, companies also reduce superannuation contributions, payroll tax, office space costs, equipment overhead, and recruitment delays. For growing Indonesian SMEs, this can free up capital to reinvest into sales, marketing, or expansion.
What happens if my business grows and I need more staff?
Offshore staffing is designed to scale with your business. Many Indonesian companies start with one remote staff member, often in admin, marketing, or operations support, and gradually expand into a small offshore team as workload increases. Because the model is flexible and month-to-month, you can add additional team members, increase hours, transition from part-time to full-time, and build a structured offshore department. Scaling offshore is often faster and more cost-effective than recruiting locally, especially during growth phases.
Is offshore staffing suitable for small businesses?
Yes, in fact, small and medium-sized businesses often benefit the most. For Indonesian SMEs, hiring locally can feel financially risky. Offshore staffing allows small businesses to access skilled support without committing to high fixed employment costs. It is particularly effective for business owners overwhelmed with admin, agencies needing backend support, trades or service businesses handling growing enquiries, and e-commerce brands needing marketing and operations help. Starting with one dedicated remote staff member can immediately reduce founder workload and create space to focus on revenue-generating activities. Offshore staffing is not just for large corporations, it is a strategic tool for small businesses that want to grow sustainably.
