You've landed on this page because...

you're curious about what it means to be a virtual assistant.

I'm going to be completely honest with you.  It's not for everyone.​

It takes a special type of person to be a virtual assistant.

I'm not saying that you have to have some amazing, formal education. (You don't.)
I'm not saying that you have to have some certificate from some online virtual assistant course.  (You don't.)
I'm not saying that you have to know everything about all aspects of business. (You don't.)

What I'm saying is that you have to be unique.  And different.  And compassionate.  And inquisitive.  And helpful.  And supportive.  And strong.

It's not about what you know.  It's about who you are.

Look, everyone can learn stuff.  Heck, I'm sure I could even learn trigonometry if I tried hard enough. (FYI - I'm horrible at math!!)

Everyone can learn to use software and understand accounting and know how to transfer a call on a phone.

But not everyone can look at a problem and come up with creative and/or affordable ways to solve it.

Not everyone can juggle school, family, chores, work, building a business, volunteer work, clients' needs and still make it to the grocery store to pick up something for dinner.

Not everyone can sit alone for eight hours with no one to speak with but their cats or dogs.
