I was learning for two years to be a VA because I was afraid I would not know enough. The VA community changed my mind. Thanks, Erin

Welcome!

"As a VA, you're a bonafide business owner and that is cool." 😍 Sweetest thing I've heard this week coming from the best VA Guru on RU-vid and LinkedIn! Thanks as always - Garret

I love it! I will always try to hype everyone up!

@karenrouse2495 2 года назад

Thanks Erin! Always a good source of reality in the VA world. I want to start my VA business on a part time basis before venturing full time but am doubting myself. Your tips really help show the whole picture.

@peachygecko9452 2 года назад

Thank you Erin! Among all the VA coaches, you're the best among all. I'm pretty excited to start this journey to become a VA. I came across about you from your udemy VA course, which I'll be completing soon :)

@ErinBooth 2 года назад

Oh my goodness you just made my day! Thank you for such kind words! I’m here if you need anything at all.

@annamae-zing Год назад

I’m wanting to build a VA side hustle that will eventually become my full time gig so I can homeschool my boys.

@docsibnermangontawar4885 10 месяцев назад

Thank you maam for your very comprehensive and interesting presentation of the different steps to become a Virtual Assistant. You know VA work is a good source of additional income for us who have retired from public service.

@attanakmar334 Год назад

Thank you for listing out the most important to-do and to-avoid things when contemplating being a VA. You have prompted me to dive in right away but first I have to start working on my portfilio I guess.

@debbieg8951 Год назад

Loved this video. Your tips and suggestions are so practical and no-nonsense. I had to laugh out loud at the last one because it was clearly directed at me: "Don't get stuck on the hamster wheel of self-education". I needed to hear that. Thank you!

@ErinBooth Год назад

Glad it was helpful! We all fall into the self-education wheel, you're far from alone! 😂

@sarahtwum414 2 года назад

Thanks for the tips. I am getting started as a VA and I have been putting off getting clients because I thought I haven’t learnt enough or I still have more to add on. This came at a much needed time for me.

@ErinBooth 2 года назад

You are ready! So much learning happens with your clients. I’m excited for you!

@sarahtwum414 2 года назад

@@ErinBooth Thank you.

@KelliDM 2 года назад

Same here! I get a little stuck because there are work opportunities I want to apply for, but they list something that I'm not familiar with, so I want to learn about it before applying, which delays me further. We just need to dive in and put ourselves out there!

@ErinBooth 2 года назад

@@KelliDM Heck yes! I always say that virtual assistance is the best way to get paid to learn something. Anytime a client asks if I'm familiar with something and I'm not, I tell them that I am happy to learn on the clock!

@KelliDM 2 года назад

When I need a mindset shift, I will tell myself "You're a business owner, babe." and it helps me feel less insecure. I need that slapped on a mug/sticker/notepad or something to keep reminding myself! Merch idea for you, perhaps?? 🤔😀

This is encouraging. Thanks Erin for the beautiful tips. I'm yet to complete my VA course but I'm passionate to start working. Please make a video on how to get clients.

@ErinBooth 2 года назад

Do it! Start now! It might take longer than expected to find your first client. Also, the best learning experience comes from client work!

@afiahaq650 2 года назад

Hi Erin ,your video is very useful for me ,Iam actually totally new in VA world ,I just wanted to ask do I need to register somewhere or from where I can get started and what are the basic requirements for me as Iam stay at home mum really wanted to start something ,need your advice ,thanks a lot .

@ErinBooth 2 года назад

No need to register! Virtual Assistance can be done without any certificates or formal training. However, some self-education (as you're doing now) is definitely helpful. I have some videos on my channel about how to find your first few clients!

@ndungendolo9407 2 года назад

I have been stuck in the learning wheel for a year now🥴I just never feel ready ready smh

@ErinBooth 2 года назад

You are ready! Learning on the job is the best for two reasons: you’re getting paid to learn, and you’re figuring out what works in your biz and what doesn’t. You’ve got this!! You can do it!

@MsJS1122 Год назад

Hi Erin. I'm enjoying your videos and learning alot... quickly!! I wanted to ask if having two mobile phones is a good idea for a VA? Or, will that get too complicated? Thx, from Jean (Cape Town, RSA)

@ErinBooth Год назад

Great question! While you can have two phones, most people find it more economical and practical to either have two numbers (I used to have a free Google Voice number that I gave to clients). Many people like OpenPhone, but I have not personally used the service.

@MsJS1122 Год назад

@ErinBooth me again... I've had a quick look at both... it seems that Google Voice is a good option. Esp in the beginning to keep expenses down. (I wasn't aware of either, so thank you!) :)

@stefanybarreto1042 4 месяца назад

Hi! I’m new to the channel and right now I’m just watching video to learn and see what the VA position is about. Is there any website I can check out to find a job? Thank you!

@ErinBooth 4 месяца назад

hi! VA jobs are not typically listed on one particular website. If you're keen to work with an agency that matches you to clients, you'll need to apply directly with those agencies (like Time ETC, Belay, Zirtual to name a few). The vast majority of VA opportunities are freelance - meaning you find, connect with, and pitch your services to clients.

where to join a VA community?

@chandamukupo5240 2 месяца назад

Subscribing ❤

@chandamukupo5240 2 месяца назад

What VA communities can a newbie join ?

@ErinBooth 2 месяца назад

I suggest focusing on LinkedIn and Facebook (if you have one). Search "Virtual Assistant" in Groups. There are TONS of great communities.

@Chidinmafrank Год назад

Pls Erin how can I join the VA community

@kauthman7007 2 года назад

Can I start without being certified yet? Still undergoing some trainings.

@ErinBooth 2 года назад

Yes definitely!! You do not need to be certified at all to work as a VA.

please reccommend a VA community to join

@ErinBooth Год назад

My favorite is another VA's community on Facebook called the Virtual Savvy. The leader, Abbey, has built a HUGE group of like..40,000 VAs who are all helpful. That's a good place to start!
