Admin work saves clients time, but it's also replaceable—and that's the risk. When clients cut costs, admin tasks are often the first to go because they're viewed as DIY tasks that clients can handle themselves. Tech services, however, make clients money and keep their business running—making you indispensable. In this episode, I'm breaking down: ✔️ Why admin work puts you at risk of being replaced, even if you're doing a great job. ✔️ The 4 essential MarTech (Marketing Tech) services that make you irreplaceable to your clients. ✔️ How to position yourself as a Tech VA and become a revenue-generating asset. ✔️ Why tech services are recession-proof, AI-proof, and in high demand. ✔️ Simple steps to transition from admin to tech without feeling overwhelmed. By the end of this episode, you'll know exactly how to shift from replaceable admin work to high-paying, recession-proof tech services—and future-proof your business.
