Signing that first virtual assistant client is the biggest hurdle to jump over in your service-based business. Once you do, your confidence will soar, you’ll gain experience and it will be so much easier to sign more clients.

But how do you stand out from the sea of applicants all competing for the same virtual position?

Today’s conversation will provide valuable insight into the hiring process and how to make sure you move on to the next phase.

Email Marketer Allea Grummert, owner of Duett, recently hired several contractors for her growing email marketing agency and reached out to me with her insights. She was shocked at how many people didn’t follow through with directions. She wondered if she was doing something wrong especially when it came to her test simple project and what the freelancer culture was really like.

After messaging each other, we decided that every single virtual assistant, marketing assistant, and service provider needs to hear this conversation.

Here’s what to do … and what not to do. 

Also, take note of how she upleveled one of her own and what this virtual assistant did to get promoted.
