In our last episode, we talked about the many ways that adding a virtual assistant to your team can enhance your success.
Did you hear that one? If not, you might want to go back and check out Episode 75 before you listen to this one. 🙂
In that episode, you met my assistant, Queenie Verhoeven, who runs a company providing VA services to small businesses around the world. Queenie has been a critical part of my team for several years now; I can’t even imagine running a business without her.
And I’d love for you to have that kind of help yourself.
So let’s say I’ve got you convinced, and you’re ready to hire your first VA.
Now what?
How do you find them? How do you choose the one who’s right for you? How do you actually hire someone?
Ohhhh so many questions.
Let’s talk about all that. Shall we?
Give this a listen, and you’ll learn how to get started.
