In this training we will cover two main points:

1. Tasks that need to be completed for You to scale your business
2. Tools You can use to achieve them

Any business can utilize the help of a Virtual Assistant (VA). If you have administrative, creative and/or technical tasks you don’t want to do yourself then this is where a VA can step in and help you out. That way you can focus on doing the tasks that make you more money not to mention you love doing!

The following list shows over 200 ways you can utilize the services of a Virtual Assistant which may or may not apply to your business, but may spark some new ideas regarding what a VA can do for your business.

Our joint venture partner Tawnya Sutherland has put together 60+ FREE tools to help you work from home.

Tawnya Sutherland has been a Virtual Assistant for over two decades now and has helped thousands of entrepreneurs over the years get up and running with their service based business working from home. It’s unusual times right now with current events forcing many folks to temporarily start working from home. Tawnya shares a list of her favourite resources to help self-employed people transition to their new work at home environment.

Ever feel like you’re stuck in a catch-22 situation where you would like to hire more people but don’t have money to do so? If you do, it may be the right time to get a remote assistant. Getting one shouldn’t cost much, and it’s one of the best investments you can make as a business owner.

“Your brand is what people say about you behind your back!” – Lesley Everette

Often when we are thinking about branding our top of mind is a website, logo, colors, and social media content that we are going to share. However, at Friday’s event Lesley asked us to think beyond that [even if we already have a brand in place].

Making it successfully to the top alone is no longer an option in our current world. It is through building relationships, and connections, creating collaborations and sharing our wealth of knowledge that we all find our way to the top together. Friday’s event was another fantastic opportunity for making this happen.

Nearly all entrepreneurial courses have a team-based project work aspect that gives the learners an opportunity to see the rewards of working hard to achieve a common goal. Outside the classroom, collaboration between entrepreneurs has been seen to produce successful results with some of the most common household names exhibiting the importance of collaboration. Some of these examples are Larry Page and Sergey Brin forming Google, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak forming Apple, and Bill Gates and Paul Allen with Microsoft. Huge companies have also been seen to collaborate to achieve a certain goal, with some of the famous partnerships including Cocacola and Heinz, GoPro and Red Bull, Starbucks and Spotify and UNICEF and Target.

“Business is either a daring Grand Adventure or nothing at all.” – Carolyn Cooper-McOuatt

In order to find success we need to know first what it is that we actually want, have a plan for how we are going to get there and get clear on what it is we have to do in order to achieve our dreams. Carolyn spoke to us about having a vision and knowing where we want to be 3 years from now.

These events just keep getting better and better! The connections being made are so fantastic there never seems to be enough time!

Before we get into our recap we wanted to send out a “Hope you Feel Better Soon!” wish to Jill Lublin who was unfortunately unable to join us Friday due to not feeling well. We look forward to hearing her speak at one of our upcoming events.
