    This is SO important! Women should be helping each other with these things. I didn't know about perimenopause until I was going through it. I found Dr Marie Clare Haver and Dr Daniela Steyn who have helped me so much. I didn't know about all the symptoms either...just hot flushes haha. But it sounds like you are describing my life here! Life as a woman...ah man!

    You experienced some frightening symptoms, thank you for being so open about your experience. It’s time to challenge the outdated "it’s just part of getting older" view on perimenopause and recognise it as a serious phase with real challenges.

    I was analyzing your TH-cam channel and maybe you are quite worried about the growth of your TH-cam channel. Because the quality of your content is good your channel has many videos but your video SEO optimization area has a lot of workspace so videos can't reach the targeted audience as a result video views, likes, and subscribers don't increase accordingly. If you update your video optimization issues, that will help increase your video views, likes, and subscribers organically and rank on TH-cam and Google's first search page. I analyzed your videos to see why there aren't views growing and found many issues. If you want to talk about it please reply to me

  • @israfilhokbabu
    @israfilhokbabu 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I was watching your video and visited your channel I saw that your content is so good. But i noticed your channel has many videos but your video does have not an audience because of your video SEO optimization area why videos can't reach the targeted audience as a result video views, likes, and subscribers aren't increasing. Do you want to talk about it for a while? If you are interested I can share issues with you

    Hi In the U.K. what do the client prefer to see .. CV or resume ? Is portfolio same as CV

    • @TheVAFoundry
      @TheVAFoundry 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Anne. We definitely recommend creating a comprehensive LinkedIn profile to serve as your CV. If a client asks for your CV then you can direct them to your LinkedIn profile. A CV is definitely not the same as a portfolio. A portfolio showcases examples of your work and is not necessary for all VAs. It's is only those VAs offering creative where there is the ability to show the 'work' you have completed. If you aren't offering creative services, then your testimonials from past clients or managers can support your credibility and provide social proof to potential clients. Hope that helps.
