If you are considering working with associates to expand your virtual assistant business, here’s a couple of tips:

1. Do your research. When taking on an associate VA it is very important to trust the person you are going to be working with. Although there will be contracts in place to protect you both legally, you still need to work with someone you can trust to provide a professional service to your clients, so make sure you do your research.

2. Select who you want to work with After having a good look through all available information about potential associates, including their websites, client testimonials, industry reputation etc. decide who you’d like to work with. If possible check to see if they already work with associates as this will give you an indication as to whether they might be open to this sort of arrangement.
