$3000/Month Virtual Assistant Within 6 Months

👉 Here’s an interview with a woman named Jacqi Dix, sharing how she went from zero to $3000/month as a virtual assistant within six months…

Jacqi used to work an office job as a CFO, but got laid off and decided to find online work so she could be home more for her daughter with special needs.

Not wanting to do the same kind of work online – “I’ve always been told I don’t have the personality to be an accountant” – Jacqi started learning graphic and web design.

Now she does all kinds of tasks for her clients, including website updates, email management, CRM work, etc.

She has two main clients…

• A company that does accounting for wineries.
• Her daughter’s school.

The first pays her $25/hour. The second gives Jacqi’s daughter free schooling (valued at $4200/year) in exchange for her VA services.

Maybe there’s a business in your area that you can “barter” with like this? 🤔

Jacqi also says in the interview that her clients sometimes ask her to do something she doesn’t know how to do. In those situations she first tries to figure it out and do it herself.

But if that proves too difficult, she advises the client to hire a specialist.

She’ll say…

I don’t mind figuring it out but you may be able to pay somebody an hour and have it done, whereas it may take me three hours.

I used to do similar as a freelance web developer. 

I could always figure out tricky coding problems given enough time. But I would often advise my clients to hire a programmer instead. I’d even recommend a programmer and arrange everything with them so the client only had to deal with me.

It was a win-win-win 🥳

(Btw, Jacqi credits a course called 90 Day VA with helping her launch her VA career. I’ve reviewed that here.)
