Today we’ll be chatting with a very successful virtual assistant, Debora Cavett.

Debora helps small, women-owned businesses get to the next level with Social Media Management, Content Creation (for their blogs and newsletters) and other Admin Tasks. Her mission is to give you valuable time and energy back to enjoy life at its fullest!

Fun fact: Debora’s originally from Switzerland but didn't get a single response when pitching clients in German – only Americans wanted to hire her!
