Are you looking to outsource some of your work or hire your first employee?
If so, this is the video for you! It can be hard to give up some of the tasks that your business needs to get done in order to run smoothly, and as entrepreneurs, we sometimes have this mentality that we can do it all by ourselves. However, this only leads to burnout and less time spent on activities that can actually bring in revenue to grow our businesses.
Today's guest, Angee Robertson has been called to equip women who have administrative giftings, savvy organizational skills, and a deep desire to support the marketplace to make an impact, all for the glory of God.
After successfully running her own thriving virtual assistant business for nearly two decades, she founded the Kingdom Virtual Assistant School where she trains aspiring virtual assistants to design their own unique practices in partnership with God. She uses her certified Life and Career coach training to support her students and in her work with entrepreneurs. Outside of Kingdom VA School, she supports small businesses to streamline their operations so they are free to focus on their own God-given callings.
This video covers what you need to think about and do before you hire anyone, whether it's a virtual assistant, someone from Fiverr, or Upwork, and what to keep in mind as you go through the process. Angee also shares with us her experience of working as a VA and the top 3 common mistakes that people make when working with a VA.
This episode is jam-packed full of great ideas, so let's get to it!
