“Not only are bloggers suckers for the remarkable, so are the people who read blogs .” - Seth Godin
Introduction:
With the entire world shifting (and growing!) businesses online, virtual assistant services have never been higher in demand.
Are you looking to become a virtual assistant?
Or perhaps up-level your virtual assistant service offerings?
If so, it's a great time to decide which virtual assistant services you'll offer.
It's truly important that service providers, especially virtual assistants, are always learning. The world - both online and offline - changes so rapidly and you need to keep up.
Being on the cutting edge of what business owners and potential clients are looking for is vital.
You should also keep in mind that all virtual assistant services are not created equal. They are not all "Generalist VA" services that you can package up.
However, the beauty of being a business owner is that you get to choose what you offer, how much you charge and who you offer it to.
So, when you are clear on these three points, you'll be in great shape.
Let's dive in.

Most of these virtual assistant services are premium. Not all of these services should even be considered "virtual assistance" as you become an expert at your craft.
The right clients will pay you for what you are worth. Do not undervalue yourself.
If you're just getting started, you can find clients who will invest in your services while you are learning specific systems for them. That's a really sweet spot to be in, but don't stay there forever.
When you become the expert, it's extremely important that you are paid what you are worth. I know that I've said that already but it bears repeating.
