Thankyou so much for your advice! Referrals are scary but word of mouth promotion is valuable
Watching this while eating outside, this is truly the best job ever
Hi Erin, came across your video today, and it's so helpful as I just rounded up a VA Program. I'll sure put these points to use. I've been posting on my LinkedIn, I think I'll have to intensify that. Thanks once again.
Very thoughtful video as always, Erin

Thank you for all the help you give to us VAs.
Happy to help!
Great tips Erin. Learning how to properly market yourself is so important. It can be super scary when you are just starting out.
Totally, and without any guidance, it's easy to feel lost!
Hi Erin. I'm huge fan of yours and I find your videos very helpful. Thank you ❤️
Thank you for your support! You made my day, and I'm so happy to hear that the videos are helpful!
This was amazing! I am actually doing the attending virtual events and referrals. It has worked.
That’s AWESOME news! Glad to hear it’s helping.
Hi Erin. Just finished my training with you on Udemy. Loved it! Now moving on to finding clients and im so glad to find you here.😊
Hi! I am looking for a cheaper course for being a virtual assistant. Did you find her course helpful? Thank you!
@@czarinaroxas5419 Hi! I just finished her course on Udemy and it is amazing. Everything is well explained and there are a lot of resources to download and use in your VA journey. I would definitely recommend it 😌
How’s it going?
@@asmad8095 Hey, I am thinking of doing her course on Udemy. I can see that you commented about 7 months ago; How applicable was her course and did it work for you? Would you recommend it now that you have been in it for a while?
@@LG-os4zt Hiii! Looking back, my comment is still very valid haha, I took notes during the course and now I use my notes as a guide. I’ve downloaded all the templates and every link is now in my favourites. If you’re thinking of doing her course on Udemy, I would honestly recommend it. Hope that helps ❤️
thanks for sharing this
You bet!
Hawking your business to friends and family can turn them off on you. I agree with asking for a referral but only after you have had the client a while.
I just want you to know I immediately trusted you when I saw the Bucees Patch :')
You just made my day!
I am gonna apply these methods right now 👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome! Let me know how it goes!
Hey how did it work out for you?
Thanks for this video. I am just starting out. I am not sure what my niche is or what my transferable skills I need to give life to. I saw your into videos on Udemy. Which class will help me with the skills I need as a beginning VA.
Awesome, welcome to the VA world! The Blueprint to launch will help you get your business set up and learn more about how (and where) to find clients. The Must-Have Skills course will help you get a feel for the most POPULAR virtual services (ie the most often requested services of virtual assistants).
Erin you such a great teacher. I am so in love with you
😳☺️
Hi Erin.. It's a superb video.
Will I get certificate after completing course?
Yes, absolutely!
Nice video
Thanks!
I visited your website and also youtube channel. You tutorial was very effective and helpful. Why you stop posting?
What do you mean?
What tip concerned me was going to former employers to ask for referrals. While I can't say that I've burned bridges with some, there were many places where situations happened that made me relieved when I finally was able to leave for good. I've done volunteer work - is it okay to ask there for references?
By no means do you have to approach pervious colleagues or bosses. I think asking for references from volunteer coordinators can work but ONLY if the volunteer opportunity was in some way related to your work. Does that help?
@@ErinBooth Yes, that does. Thanks!
beautiful eyes!!! forgot everthing else
Great day!
I am Joel by the way, I am a breadwinner and a self supporting student at the same time. Due to inevitable financial crisis I worked in a BPO company while studying. I feel a great sense of pride in the knowledge of working while at the same time studying.
However, Recently I got sick and was terminated, it frustrates me because i no longer have a job and our electric and water bill, went insanely high and i am supposed to pay for that since I no longer have a father and only got my mother, she owns a mini store but it is not enough to pay for my expenses while im studying. Moving forward, I heard about my friend working as a free lancer or VA and luckily got a client. I am hoping that any one here helps me to become a VA. Sadly, I don’t have laptop which is also essential for my research, thats why im trying my luck here. Rest assured, I will do my very best, im coachable as well and is willing to go above and beyond to achieve certain goals for ky prospective client. Btw, I have also studied various videos about whats does VA do.
I want to ask my manager for a review to post on my website. Should I include his name? I don't know if he will be all right with that🤷
Awesome! First, I'd ask your manager if it's ok to include his review. If he says yes, a typical way to include someone's name is to only use their first name and last initial. For example, if I gave you a review, you'd post my review as from "Erin B."
@@ErinBooth great advice thank you 👍😉 should be all right with this. Are you on LinkedIn to connect? I am more there, will be geeat to see your new posts faster. I am going through your all videos now😅😅 I am from UK but general advices are the same👏☺️

@@imranhaider1517 I recommend starting with free YT videos and online courses on Udemy, like you're doing now! Research is the best way to understand what you need in order to start a business and find services that you can eventually market!
