Whether you're a full-time Mom where your job is inside the home, or a Mom who has an additional full or part time job outside the home, YOU HAVE A JOB. That job has REAL value. And we should start thinking about it like that. (Side note: I also believe that being a Dad is a job and more people should treat it as such, and dad expectations should be as high as mom expectations, but we're talking about Moms here today.) I've invited Ashley Quinto Powell to join me to talk about this concept of Mom as a career, and as an employer. Ashley is a serial entrepreneur, a national speaker, and the author of Executive Motherhood: The Art of Having It All Without Doing It All. As the Founder of the Virtual Assistant Agency, myVA Rocks, she knows a thing or two about running a business, and she's spoken about motherhood for TEDx. Ashley provides a different perspective on Motherhood by redefining “mom,” as a mother and as an employer.  Whether you're a “yummy mummy” (you know those super zen yogi moms that wouldn't dream of losing their cool and individually squeeze the milk of organic almonds while sculpting their abs, soothing kids' feelings and saving the whales), a holding on by the seat of your pants Mom, or any other type of Mom, YOU HAVE VALUE!! Recognizing, appreciating, and acknowledging that value isn't just Woman's Work. It's society's work.  It's about time we see it for what it is: Women. Doing. Invaluable. Work.

After being burned by numerous property managers, coupled with the rising costs of marketing and lead generation, Max Fisch knew he needed more control of his properties and business, without sacrificing his own time.

His management team helps real estate investors, agents, and entrepreneurs outsource any area of their business in order to save on payroll costs and time to maximize profits. With today's technology, his team can easily take the guesswork out of hiring, training, and managing Virtual Professionals for investors of all portfolio sizes.

Today's guest transitioned from corporate executive assistant to virtual assistant to owning her own virtual assistant agency in the span of two years. But it wasn't easy. And it didn't happen overnight. Have you ever seen those social media ads for entrepreneurs in the online space who talk about making $10,000/month working only 10 hours a week … and how you can do it, too? It isn't entirely untrue, but the reality is that it takes work to build your own business and get it to the level of success where you only have to work a few hours a week. In this episode, Sadie Prestridge shares her journey to a six-figure VA business—from putting in the work (even when it's not fun) to embracing support and growing a team, and the importance of accountability. She also talks about the responsibilities of a VA, how to know when you're ready to hire one, and how a VA can support solo entrepreneurs. What you'll find in this episode: [01:42] How Sadie landed in the world of virtual assistants and quickly grew to offering higher level executive support [04:56] What it was like building an agency so quickly after starting her solo entrepreneur business [07:06] What a VA can offer your business and take off your plate, and how to know if it's the right time to hire a VA [18:16] What is was like for Sadie as a new mom and a business owner, and how gaining success in your business doesn't happen overnight [26:20] How to avoid burning the candle at both ends and keep your personal boundaries, and why it's important to have support in your business   For full show notes, resources, and link, head to https://www.dralyssaadams.com/uncommon-couch-podcast Check out my new offering, Your Uncommon Brand VIP Day: https://www.dralyssaadams.com/vip-branding-experience If you enjoyed this show, make sure to follow the podcast so you'll never miss an episode.

His management team helps real estate investors, agents, and entrepreneurs outsource any area of their business to save on payroll costs and time to maximize profits. With today's technology, his team can easily take the guesswork out of hiring, training, and managing Virtual Professionals for investors of all portfolio sizes.It might be easy to start a real estate company or in Max's case a VA company, but it takes real work and determination to make these businesses really work.  Max also is not doing anything that is not truly helping people.Thank you all for listening and I will see you in the next episode.When you're ready, head on over tohttps://easysell411.comhttps://billyalvaro.comhttps://billyssecrets.comTo get some neat (and FREE) Tools | Tips | Tricks to help you in REI!

Social Media Expert Amber Weyrauch shares her experience with Instagram Reels and how they effect your overall social media analytics. She shares the valuable findings behind running a 30-days-of-reels campaign herself and gives us the REAL numbers from her own research. Listen in to understand how an account with under 10K followers was able to reach 110K non-followers and doubled her follow rate within ONE month of creating Reels. Amber runs a Virtual Assistant Agency called Socially Inspired Management, and states that if you have a desire to grow, you should find a way to make Reels work for your business. She also details her method for showing up consistently on social media, which I personally love. She reviews not needing to be perfect, but to instead set a pattern or a schedule that you can maintain.You can connect with Amber any of the following ways:www.sociallyinspiredmanagement.comInstagram / Facebook: @sociallyinspiredmanagementPodcast: The Inspired Biz

How does that look like when you're scaling and bringing on those team members and how should other people look at that when they're bringing on team members? {6:49} I'm the kind of person that I really think that I can do anything and so I'll just start doing it and then of course, correct and troubleshoot later on. {7:02} I have kind of developed my own system for how I want to do things and I really do notice the difference, if you're missing certain pieces in the onboarding process then you're really losing the value that you could be gaining from a particular person. {8:04} The gist of what I do to just kind of put it all in a nutshell, is I have set up my application in an air table base and they apply through there. {9:04} That's really nice to kind of have that front end of things set up because sometimes that's what really makes the most amount of time. {9:35} If people wanted to have that template, is that something that you can implement for them as well? {9:45} Yes absolutely and I've actually thought about creating you know taking all of my data out of the one I'm currently using and basically making it a template that can be sold and just plug and play. {10:04} It has really been a game-changer. {10:31} That was something important to me too, to implement is just that person would you bring that personal connection component back into the process. {10:50} What about when those team members do start working with you what does that look like what does that process look like for onboarding and distributing tasks? {10:58} I use click up. {13:00} What are the top technologies that you see your clients using and you use in your business that entrepreneurs need to have as they scale? {14:11} I would say for any business owner, it really depends on like what are the core components of your business. {15:08} I would recommend for sure a tool like Dubsado. {15:49} I know you use it for task management things, is there something that people use click up for in their business that isn't task management based is there something that people should be using click up for that you haven't seen people use click up for? {16:22} I've seen some really cool things happening with click up I've I know I've seen real estate agents using click up to kind of manage you know as a CRM for real estate processes. {16:56} There really isn't a limit to what you can do with click up. {17:40} What do you think has been the thing that has really helped you grow and scale your business is that do you think there's one thing that's helped you get to this point in your business so far or what does that look like for you? {17:54} I mean it's definitely bringing on a team like bringing on people to help and taking the time I would say like stepping back for me to have like alone time to just reflect and strategize like look at big picture. {19:17} As a business owner, I cannot give my biggest problems to other people on my team I am the business owner I have to solve the biggest problems, and realizing that was kind of a game-changer. {23:43} Have you ever worked on mindset has mindset been a thing that you've worked with when you're scaling your business? {23:56} There's definitely been some mindset work, I mean I think it looks different for every person. {25:22} What is next for you? {25:54} I'm working currently to really streamline what we're doing. {26:20} I also am working with new virtual assistants in either coaching or a program. {27:13} My goal is to really fine-tune the operations on the system side of all those things.

A Quick Guide To Hiring a Virtual AssistantWith the evolution of technology, it's important to have someone who can help you understand and adapt to these changes in order to help the businesses continue to expand. And is where Virtual Assistants come in. To get yourself a VA here is how you can hire one:Define the job description clearly - When creating a description, be as specific as possible, such as your needed amount of working hours, specific area of duties, specific tasks and skillsets that you're searching for.Post-job opening strategically - Because businesses currently depend on the usage of the internet, there are websites where employers can post their job openings. You can utilize these websites as a virtual bulletin board.  Choose a platform that caters to your specific needs, like SmartVAs. We are a Virtual Assistant Agency that specializes in digital marketing services that are applicable to practically all online businesses today. This idea is to narrow down the gap between you and the best VA that you need.Consider budget and timezone wisely - You need to set a  budget that you are willing to work within in order to have a variety of people as potential VAs. VAs are self-employed individuals who work from home. The time zone in which a virtual assistant is located is critical for your business before you begin communicating with them and scheduling interviews. Maximize the screening process thoroughly - Unlike face-to-face interviews, which are not applicable to independent contractors such as VAs, interviewers connect with the interviewee thoroughly. Because the interview is conducted online, the interviewer must be aware of the interviewee's tone of voice, ability to communicate, and facial expressions. It is also vital to ask casual questions during the interview to determine whether you and your potential hire would be able to connect. Also, ensure that he or she has a strong internet connection, as this is one of the most critical parameters in working as a VA online.Discuss the compensation plan - It is critical to lay out the compensation plan clearly for all parties to have a good working relationship between you and your potential hire.Hand-off task incrementally - To avoid overwhelming them with the tasks, start small and give them time to learn what works and what doesn't for you, them, and your business. About Kristy YoderKristy Yoder, the founder, and CEO of SmartVAs is a Filipino that is based in the United States.

From the experiences I have collected over the past years in running my own Virtual Assistant Agency, I want to share with my listeners what a Virtual Assistant is and the benefits and advantages of securing one in today's digital era.What is a Virtual Assistant?A Virtual Assistant is an independent service provider who caters mostly to administrative tasks without having to be in a client's office. They are mostly operating at the comforts of their homes but can still efficiently access the necessary documents, plan calendars, and be involved in planning and strategy-making remotely.Virtual Assistants are frequently tagged and misunderstood to be just online secretaries for business owners who are in their beck and call at all times. However, Virtual Assistants are more than that, for most of the VAs, they are equipped with several years of experience from various fields in the industry, be it in social media management, blog post writing, graphic design, content management, and digital marketing. Virtual assistants do not just do what you want, they are actually trained to deliver assistance to whatever your needs so you can reach your corporate goals!How can a Virtual Assistant help in your growing business?Lowers your overhead costs - Since VAs are basically self-employed and operate remotely, business owners need not pay for the utility and other miscellaneous expenses that are required such as internet connection, devices, and other office-related supplies. Hiring a VA also cuts you some costs in terms of training as they already have the relevant experiences in various but specific fields. Nonetheless, they would still need you to provide some knowledge, information, and guidance on the tasks that they would be working on.Increases productivity - Acquiring someone to handle your day-to-day business operations significantly frees up your time and reduces your workload which in effect would allow you to focus on more necessary tasks to help your company prosper and expand. As you give more emphasis on the crucial aspects of your budding business, your virtual assistants can definitely minimize some load off your plate!Gain more freedom - Work and life balance has always been atop the list of what business owners want to achieve, but the question is, how? Worry no more as Virtual Assistants are always ready to help you achieve freedom outside your business as they can do the work for you. Having your own virtual assistant will grant you plenty of time to spend and enjoy with your family, friends, and yourself! About Kristy YoderKristy Yoder, the founder, and CEO of SmartVAs is a Filipino that is based in the United States.

Would you believe us if we said that there was a way to set up a business and earn money quickly? Well, you shouldn't! Even if you're buying into someone else's proven business model where they give you tools, support and guidance, there is no guarantee of success. You will still need to be prepared financially, especially during the first year and be prepared to work hard to make the business work yourself. Your working hours will also change and so will need to manage your efforts efficiently. In this episode we talk with Rebecca Newenham, Founder and Franchisor of virtual agency Get Ahead VA, about both of these topics as well as - How commuting can impact your health - How to work from home effectively - Networking and how it's changed since COVID - What a Virtual Assistant/Agency actually does - Rebecca's penchant for leopard print and much, much more!
