A Utah dad quietly owns the world's largest pool of Filipino remote workers — and takes zero cut of their pay.

Owns the supply. A flat fee wins the deepest talent pool where a wage cut can't. Jonas gave up recurring commission so 2M workers list free — then charged buyers to search.

Starter Story — OnlineJobs.ph: a $10M/yr job board built with $5KBoring Cash Cow — Niche job board generates $10M a yearJohn Jonas — $69/mo pricing (LinkedIn post)Sramana Mitra — interview with John Jonas (2019)John Jonas — founder site
Revenue is founder-stated via a Starter Story interview (about $1.2M/mo, crossing 8 figures in 2022), not an audited filing — labeled STATED, not independently confirmed. Sources conflict slightly (a $10M/yr headline vs a $1.2M/mo body); we cite the conservative $10M+. Founding year listed as 2009 (Starter Story); some bios say 2008. The 'no wage commission' model and $69-99 pricing are documented; the 2M+ profiles and about 50%/yr (100% in 2020) growth are founder-stated. Competitor fee figures are model-level, not exact quotes. In scope: the core asset is the web subscription database, not staffing labor. No drama fabricated — this won on 15 years of content-driven distribution plus supply density; no X/Twitter handle was found for the founder, so none is listed. We never score you.
