Three reasons you should NOT get a VA
I know that some business owners are thinking about if it is the right time to get a Virtual Assistant.
And you probably think that my resounding answer to them is YES. Do it NOW. Of course it is the right time.
But no.
Not everyone is ready to get a Virtual Assistant.
It just might not be the best thing to do right now.
- If you are struggling and making no sales, and blaming the world, then don’t get a VA.
- If you don’t have a business model that works (where people want what you are selling RIGHT now), then now is not the time…
- If you want to TRY it, but don’t think it will work, then that is not the right time to start….
You don’t need everything perfect, i’s dotted and t’s crossed to get started with a Virtual Assistant.
But you do need a workable business model, revenue* and the right mindset.
The time might not be right for you. And if that’s the case, make that call and be content with your decision. Decide to look at it in the future.
Perhaps until the new financial year, maybe until after Christmas…
If you are anything like me, you will continue to explore and gather information…and then seemingly wake up one morning thinking NOW, today is the day.
And if that happens to you, then reach out. Until then I will share information with you so that you can ponder and make an informed decision (if and when you are ready).
*Although I say that you need revenue, my confession is that I actually started with my first Virtual Assistant before I made sales in my brand new business..
Kristen Clarke did this too. Check out her story of starting with her Virtual Assistant even before she left her job to start her business here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7fKJjimDfeZMxdQBjkavMk?si=8OMPcfR3TCWfaSye1p0fDA
