For the virtual assistant who is just starting out.

As a new or seasoned virtual assistant, there will come a time when you still need that additional push in what’s next for me?

If you are starting out, trust me I know that overwhelm is only an understatement of what you might be facing every day.

With information overload, you might be sitting at your deck wondering if this career switch is really for you?

The fear of starting a new business and no family support is another stress that you want to run from.

I get it, because like you I know what you are going through because I have been there.

Why stress yourself all over the place than to get all the information that you need in one place?

The virtual assistant conference for VA’s

The VaVirtuosos is the conference that you need to be. Being in its 17th season (Starting November 5th-9th, 2018 )this conference has helped so many virtual assistants when they were starting out including myself.

You will realize that once on the site that #VAVS stands for the “Virtual Assistant Virtuosos Seminars” the online conference that as a virtual assistant that everyone once they attend they keep coming back for each season.

It’s no wonder it has been in existence for so long.

What to expect at the conference

Not only is it a place to network with other virtual assistants. You will also gain new information on trends in the industry as well as how to gain new clients.

There are 20 line up speaking engagements. For presentations on how to craft your anti-elevator pitch, learn how to use WordPress and create your website are some of the topics that will be discussed.

For the low price of only $37 USD you will have the opportunity to be interactive with other virtual assistants who have actually gone done the path as a virtual assistant.

PS: Even if you aren’t attending the event, make sure you subscribe to #VAVS News at Tawnya’s website to receive 1 FREE DRAW Ticket for a chance to win some of the $10,000 in prizes and be registered for the FREE training webinars this coming month.

It was nice of you to stop by.

Until then, happy hiring, and best wishes for your business.

Why your virtual assistant should never provide you with a resume.

12 / 3 / 17 5 / 5 / 18

How are you from the last time you read my blog?

If you are new, welcome to my blog!

The question that gets asked over and over again…..

So you may ask, what is this question exactly?

Should a virtual assistant provide a Resume?

◊This post contains affiliate links and I will be compensated if you make a purchase after clicking on my links.◊

Why A Virtual Assistant should not have a Resume in place.

Don’t forget to check the sidebar and footer of this website for awesome resources!

virtual assistant should never provide a resume

 

In my opinion no!

But in most cases when you are ready to hire a virtual assistant this is one of the questions that you might ask first.

Mind you that these persons might not know that they are not suppose to, but it’s really off putting if you know that hiring a Virtual Assistant is an independent contractor and you still continue to ask a virtual assistant to provide a resume.

The other day, I saw a post that made me cringe and I was wondering if I should respond. Mind you I didn’t respond but here is what the post read.

Looking for A virtual assistant!

Must know how to create awesome graphics and have been doing this for awhile,

Must be able to work 2-4 hours at least per day. Please provide your resume.

Now, I did not mention the application details for privacy reasons, but I was shock when I too was seeing other virtual assistants responding to this post and saying they will provide their resume.

It begs to wonder if these virtual assistants know that they are not suppose to be doing this, or because of a lack of education, they continue to do so.

Now I am not making any judgments on these virtual assistants, because everyone needs to do work and how you do your business is solely up to you.

Research before you continue to send the wrong message.

But clearly it sends the wrong message to prospective clients when, one set of virtual assistants are sending over their resume and another set of virtual assistants are not sending over their resume.

This is where I think there will be a breakdown in the industry, if these set of virtual assistants are not made aware enough of what they are suppose to do and not do.

As an independent contractor working for different walks of life, I wonder if these same individuals who send over their resumes has a contract in place?

It’s sad when a client asks for a resume’ because mind you they might not know much about the industry, but it’s really distasteful if you are operating as a virtual assistant and you do not thoroughly know more about what is expected in the industry, before you start operating your services.

I know that I am not perfect, nor do I claim to know everything, but one thing that I made sure I did, was research what was expected of myself and my business and what I should be doing.

I started my research by joining this FREE forum and networking with other virtual assistants. Its also free for you to join and ask questions as you go along in your virtual assistant business journey.

Now, you might be different and might say that waiting to research and know everything will be time-consuming, in some instances yes, and you can’t know everything in details when you start, but at least knowing the basics of the industry is not nor should it be an excuse to say it’s time consuming.

What you should know before you start.

You must take the initiative to do your due diligence so as not to send the wrong message, especially if you are running a business.

You must take the first step to make sure that you know what is expected in your industry, because there are a lot of free and paid webinars available at your convenience to know how to.

When I started my business, I did not know anything, and I literally started from scratch by learning what I was suppose to do in becoming a virtual assistant.

The same way you started a business and I am sure and hoping you did your research, the same principle must be taken seriously in such an industry.

More importantly I want you to take away if anything from this post, the fact that virtual assistants are independent contractors which means that they do not provide resume’s but testimonials instead.

Another option is you are also welcome to ask for references if you prefer this method from these virtual assistants.

These virtual assistants are responsible for taking care of their health and insurance benefits and because of this they are not an employee of your company or business.

It was nice of you to stop by.

Until then, happy hiring, and best wishes with your business.
