Are You Stuck in Low-Paying Work with No Freedom?

Starting as a VA or freelancer can feel like a grind—low pay, long hours, and little freedom to live the life you imagined when you started your business. But here’s the good news: low pay and lack of freedom don’t have to be your forever.

With the right mindset and strategies, you can transform your business into one that not only pays what you’re worth but also gives you the flexibility to design a life you love. Let’s dive into three key steps to make it happen.

Step 1: Shift Your Mindset - Stop Calling Yourself “Just a VA”

The title “VA” can hold you back. Many people associate it with admin work like answering phones or managing emails—not the high-value expertise you bring to the table. Instead, focus on what you do for clients.

Are you a WordPress expert? A funnel strategist? A social media systems pro? Start owning your unique value.

Think Like a Business Owner - Your VA work isn’t just a gig or side hustle—it’s a business. To grow, you need structure and a mindset that prioritizes long-term success. This includes investing in yourself, setting clear goals, and valuing your expertise.

Action Step: Drop “VA” from your branding and identify a title that reflects the results you deliver.

Are You Struggling to Find Clients Who Need Your Tech Help?

Finding the right clients can feel overwhelming, especially when it seems like everyone is competing for attention. But here’s the truth: clients who need your tech expertise are out there, and they’re actively looking for someone like you to help simplify their lives.

So, how do you connect with them? Let’s dive into three simple yet powerful tips to find clients who need tech help.

Step 1: Understand Your Ideal Client

Before finding your dream clients, you need to know who they are.

Who Needs Your Help?

1 - Think about industries and professions that often struggle with tech, like coaches, consultants, or small business owners in health, finance, or wellness.

2 - For a more focused approach, drill down into specific professions, such as business coaches or project management consultants.

What Are Their Pain Points?

3 - Listen for common phrases like “I’m overwhelmed,” “I don’t know where to start,” or “I wish someone could handle this for me.” Tech overwhelm and chaos are the core challenges they face.

Are You Ready to Become a Techie VA and Future-Proof Your Business?

The world of freelancing is changing fast, and tech-savvy Virtual Assistants (VAs) are leading the way. If you’re looking to specialize, boost your income, and stand out in a crowded market, becoming a Techie VA might be your next big move.

What Is a Techie VA?

A Techie VA is a virtual assistant specializing in technology and systems that power online businesses. While traditional VAs often focus on admin tasks, Techie VAs dive into high-demand areas like:

➕ Automation: Setting up tools like HoneyBook or HubSpot.
➕ Funnels: Designing and managing sales funnels.
➕ WordPress: Building and maintaining websites.
➕ Email Marketing: Creating campaigns and automation.
➕ Social Media Ads: Running paid campaigns to drive traffic.

I call the tech stack the core of every online business: websites, funnels, and email marketing. These tools are essential for success, and Techie VAs are the experts who make it all work.
