Background and intro We’ve been seeing a lot of VAs from Pakistan specializing in Amazon FBA. What is driving this? Are there also many FBA agencies emerging? Are sellers from Pakistan also selling on Amazon globally themselves, or mostly focused on providing services? What are the types of ecommerce tasks they are good at? How are they different from VAs in other countries, such as the Philippines? What is the best way of finding VAs, and how much does it cost? What is the best way to test / judge their skills before hiring them? Are they good with other digital marketing tasks as well such as SEO, social media, website development, etc?
