Is being a virtual assistant still a viable side hustle in this age of AI?
Today's guest, Rachael Davila, is here to show us why the answer is yes, and how you can turn your existing skills and experience into a VA business.
Rachael has been a virtual assistant for more than 20 years. But today, she's also a VA mentor, author, and the founder of Extra Hands! Virtual Assistance. In our conversation, she draws on her decades of experience to share valuable insights on finding and working with the right clients, why the best VAs think beyond simply completing tasks, and how the right mindset can help you confidently charge what you're worth.
We also get into practical details, from pricing and the best billing model, to the different ways you can structure your business so it actually pays you, and how to get started without having to know everything before you begin.
In this episode:
Why AI hasn't replaced virtual assistants ... and what it still can't do
The difference between a "doer" VA and a "collaborator" VA
How to price your services and get comfortable charging what you're worth
A prepaid billing system that solves the "you're almost out of hours" problem
What to ask (and listen for) in a discovery call before taking on a new client
How to get started as a VA without already knowing everything
Do you like what you're hearing? Consider giving it a caffeinated thumbs up. We'd really appreciate it!
