Virtual assistants help business owners with admin and tech. Virtual assistance benefits both employees and employers. Virtual assistants save employers time and money over full-time employees or doing the work themselves. Less-experienced virtual assistants like working from home, which is flexible.
Steps to becoming a virtual assistant:
- 1. Skill-check. Even with little experience, an administrative skills-focused resume will impress. Virtual assistants must organise their own tasks and time as well as their clients' calendars, schedules, and appointments.
- 2. Price services. Knowing your skills helps you land clients and jobs. Charge for your services. Pay is hourly, daily, weekly, or per task.
- 3. Equip yourself. Choosing services helps you choose equipment. Virtual assistants need headsets, landlines, printers, copiers, and scanners. Virtual assistants need internet
- 4. Portfolio-building. Ask clients for feedback and build a portfolio as you gain experience. A portfolio showcases your skills to gain clients and better-paying jobs.
- 5. Job-hunting. To gain experience and reviews, you may need low-paying jobs. Search online or with your network for jobs.
