Running a business can be child’s play

TESTIMONIALS

I'm steadily working my way through the course every spare minute I get. It's proving to be worth every penny. I only wish I'd known about you guys sooner.

Thank you for setting up the forum too. It will certainly come in handy for exchange of ideas, tips etc.

I most definitely intend to purchase one (even two) of the template packages and will also seriously consider the Marketing course as you suggest.

All the best to you and thank you again for your continual support.

I have managed to start to look at it, just going through the course first plus before I go 100% as a VA I have to still work full time - I am planning to cut down my hours slowly though until I can eventually start out alone.

So far the documents are looking good and I have started to put my details in. Looking forward to using them and I will let you know how it goes.

Thank you again for your help. Looking forward to a long relationship with you all.

I have now customised the templates that I purchased from you. Having these templates has made setting up my internal processes so much easier.

I have not yet started trading, still have some bits to sort out before I do, but I now have all my documentation in place ready for when I do start trading.

Before we have children, our focus is on our careers and ourselves without worrying too much about our lifestyles. But once children come along, we are 100% responsible for them and our priorities completely change.

When it comes to making the decision to stay at home or return to work, there could be an element of guilt with whichever decision we make – go out to work and we miss seeing our children; stay at home and we don’t keep our skills up to date.

One thing that you can consider is running your own home based business to fit around your family commitments. This is a perfect solution for a lot of mums who want the best of both worlds without feeling guilty!

Emma is mum to 3 year old daughter Megan and has been running her business as a Virtual Assistant for over 4 years and absolutely loves it.

“I set up my business just before I was pregnant but once my daughter came along, I realised it was the perfect solution for me as I fit running my business around her. My daughter goes to nursery for 2 days a week to socialise her with other children and then I work when she naps (she still has up to 2 hours in the afternoon at the moment) or is in bed for the night on the other days.

Running my own business means I spend quality time with my daughter as I see her develop every day, but it also means I utilise the skills I spent over 10 years developing so they don’t go to waste and I am keeping up with technology.

I regularly get enquiries from other mums asking about starting their own Virtual Assistant business as people are realising the huge potential available. The Virtual Assistant industry is such a supportive community of supportive people and there are a large number of mums running their business to fit around their family."

The templates I have purchased from your website are fantastic – I had no idea where to start with producing these kind of documents and your forms are brilliant. I have customised and tweaked and have already put into please the Pre-consultation Questionnaire....and I look forward to using the Client Consultation form tomorrow when I meet the potential new client. The welcome pack and information pack is also extremely useful and I spent the weekend branding them all as my own.

Thank you so much for these – the process was easy to download....fast....reasonably priced...and exactly what I was after! It would have taken hours of my time had I even attempted to put these docs together myself from scratch...so thank you again! You have made my life easier and my business look more professional! I love them!

I’m sure I will be back for more!

After starting my VA business last year in the recession I was feeling that I had lost my way. I signed up to have a one to one with Justine and I was very impressed how clear everything became. It is so important to talk through your worries and fears with someone who has been there and done it.

I have revamped my website and have clearer goals than before.

I really appreciated the feedback and support that Justine provided.
