Around Dec 15 I start to get messages like the attached. He needs help on a Sunday - he pays Sunday prices. 😉 This is a long time client that always needs some type of books clean up. So I expected this message. But I'm usually the one to reach out to my clients around December 15. Check in on your clients! Offer end of year clean up. It's a fun and quick infusion of cash for the end of the year. Someone who already paid you once [and was happy with your work] is 100% times more likely to pay you for other things.

Because of Do the Boring Work I spend a LOT of time in the "remote work search" space on all social media platforms. I get messages and respond to posts all the time from business owners asking for recommendations of reliable VAs. I have dozens of extremely talented VAs in Do the Boring Work, but I also know of many VAs that are not in my community that have just as much to offer. Before now, I had no easy way to recommend ALL OF YOU at the same time. I didnt want to build a whole new website just for this with forms and pay walls and membership capabilities. Managing Skool communities PLUS my own clients [Yes, I am an active VA] is already a lot. This community changes that. This space will serve as a public VA Directory. The Classrooms will be full of categories and VA profile info. The Community will be full of conversations, tips and advice for VAs. (No spam or self promos). All spaces will be public and searchable benefitting from Skools robust platform SEO along with Googles search and the planned paid ads. Why on Skool? 1. Skool is our ideal pool - its full of business owners who are here to grow. And one of the first conversations had amongst new business owners is to HIRE HELP! 2.SKOOL itself is growing into a community powerhouse. Many Skool hosts gain members from organic Skool traffic. With an outreach engagement plan, and paid ads I think we can be a good resource for VA visibility and business owners who find us. The first step is to fill the directory with 50 VAs ready to work. Next will be paid ads driving traffic from Facebook, LinkedIn, and Reddit etc., once we hit our target number of service providers In the meantime, we will be doing organic outreach for both VAs and business owners looking for help. The sooner we fill, the sooner can run paid ads.. If you want to grow your visibility and help shape what this directory becomes — Join us!
