Thinking about hiring globally? Start with an EOR.
The best person for your next role might not live near your office—or even in the same country.
More companies are realizing they don't need to open entities everywhere just to access global talent. Instead, they're using EOR to hire internationally faster, stay compliant, and avoid building local infrastructure before they're ready.
Oyster's EOR helps companies hire, pay, and support employees in 180+ countries while Oyster handles payroll, compliance, taxes, and local employment requirements.

The Book of the Month inside Wealth Creators for July is Essentialism, by Greg McKeown. We’re taking one nonfiction book per month, and relentlessly applying it to our businesses. Join us.
🏅 Welcome Back to The Wealthy Creator!
There’s a great book called The Rubicon Leader, by Vahab Hasiri, that changed the way I think about transformation. Both personal and professional.
It also extended what I’ve always believed about success and inner revolution, specifically the fact that whatever version of yourself you want to bring into existence, that version will always be preceded by evidence that you’re actually serious about becoming someone new.
But it helped me reach into the future even more, and got me thinking that, until now, I’ve been living as the person that my past created. NOT as the person my future requires me to be.
There are several other great books detailing this “Future Self” concept, but Hasiri absolutely nails it in his book. Here’s another banger from the book:
“Join one community where your future identity is the minimum expectation, not the maximum.”
That’s Wealth Creators, by the way. I’m going to be subtle about this. You should join.
Radical transformation and extreme success (whatever that looks like to YOU), is the minimum expectation. I’m not interested in settling for anything less, and I absolutely WILL NOT let my members give up on themselves either.
Wealth Creators is where we build your future identity, support its growth and development, and never leave your side until it’s made manifest.
And so if you want a whole team of other educational entrepreneurs behind you supporting your success (including me personally), join us here.
If you want my personal help to add between $1-5K/month in monthly recurring revenue to your creator business, and grow your audience and authority exponentially at the same time, Wealth Creators is exactly where you need to be. Join here.
After achieving my (somewhat meaningless) goal of reading 1,000 books before I turned 30, I set a new (also meaningless but cool) goal of reading 10,000 books. As of today, I’ve read exactly 1,511 books, including 57 books so far this year, and if you’re interested, here’s my full Reading List.

July is almost officially “in the books,” and oh man, what a wild month. I didn’t hit $10,000 per month in revenue 2X in a row, but I was pretty damn close. August is another chance to try again though.
I also restructured my Monthly Goals (I did very well on everything, when all is said and done, but yeah, July was all over the place), and so I’ll be bringing those back next issue.
Anyway, I’m going to get to bed. Thanks for being here, and we’ll talk soon!
All the best,
Matt Karamazov
