Last week we chatted to Chris Ducker on the topic of using outsourcing as a way to grow and scale your business. It can certainly be a very lucrative career for those who work from home to provide services to other business owners. So I thought it fitting to switch this week to look at Virtual Assitance as a viable business model for mums who want to work from home.

More and more business owners in Australia and across the globe are now beginning to embrace internet technology, and virtual assistants are fast becoming more popular and in demand.

So in today’s episode, we covered the business model on starting up your own Virtual Assistant Business. I had the pleasure to chat with Donna Tsitsis – a work from home guru; founder of The Office Buddy Pty Ltd and the VA Success Program ‘The Virtual Assistant Buddy’.

With over six years in the field of office and virtual support, she has become an expert with vast experience in the field of retail and finance sector. It started over 5 years ago when she established her very own virtual assistant business.

She’s now busy dedicating much of her time mentoring VA’s into building their work from dream jobs and runs many workshops / training programs to help grow this fantastic industry. We are also very fortunate to have Donna on our faculty of experts in the Mentoring Mums Online program.

Donna and I chat about top tips for people wanting to become a Virtual Assistant and we cover topics such as:

What are the right skills and qualifications you might need to become a Virtual Assistant?

What type of tasks should you expect to perform?

Must have equipment or tools you will need to get started
