There’s also a mindset shift that happens when you go from solo to team thinking.

Signs you may NOT be ready for a VA

A VA was never meant to be a low-cost alternative to hiring an employee, but many clients believe they will save money by going with a VA versus an employee. There are some instances where a VA is not the right solution for a business. In this episode, we discuss the signs that you may NOT be ready for a VA and situations where a VA is not the best solution. Have a question?

A VA can be more than an Admin

Virtual Assistants come with a whole range of skills, some are easy to share on their services page while others are not quantifiable as VA work. Some examples we share are brainstorming, coaching, reiki, or tarot reading. This episode discusses the hidden skills a VA can bring to the VA/Client relationship beyond the traditional handoff tasks. Have a question?

Ask...Always Ask!

We’re back and so happy you’ve returned for Season Two! VAs learn something new every day and for every client. They may not always update their services page or share all the new skills they have learned. In this episode, we discuss how important it is to ask during the interview process or, if you’re already working with a VA if they are interested in taking on or learning new skills for you.

In this episode, we discuss the onboarding process. We’ll tell you what’s important to think about and have ready. Reminder: This is the last episode of Season 1, but we will be back.

Interviews Are Like Dating

Once you know the qualities you’re looking for in a VA, it’s helpful to craft questions to ask during the interview process. Take your time with this process and interview with more than one VA. In this episode, we discuss the interview process and what’s important to know and look for. Reminder: We are wrapping up Season 1 with our next episode.
