#349: The VA Solution: Your Step-By-Step Guide To Hiring & Successfully Working With A VA with Shannon Miles Dec 03, 2020

Show notes

How to hire and work with a Virtual Assistant

This is a question I get asked all the time. “Amy, how do I know when I’m ready for a VA? And, how do I hire and work with one?”

It’s a valid question, and if you’re serious about growing your business it’s one you should be asking.

I hired my first VA in 2011, and I consider it one of the best entrepreneurial decisions of my journey so far.

My first VA helped me take my business to the next level because her support allowed me to truly focus on the areas of my business that I excelled in.

But I get it, it’s hard to know when you’re really ready for a VA, how to go about hiring one, what tasks to have them do, and when to uplevel your working relationship with them.

To help you get more clarity on those things, I’ve invited my dear friend and VA expert, Shannon Miles to join me on the show.

Shannon is the owner and creator of Belay Solutions, a company that connects entrepreneurs with virtual specialists to help support their growth and in this episode, she’s sharing the progression of hiring and working with a VA.

Show notes

You know how they say diamonds are a girl’s best friend? Well, if we're being honest, I think you and I can both agree that creativity is an entrepreneur’s best friend… or at least it should be!

But I get it! When there are other things that need to get done within your business -- especially when you’re starting out -- creativity can fall by the wayside.

Which is why I wanted to introduce you to a woman who is fierce, successful, and stays at the top of her creative game as the Creative Visionary of her business, Flourish & Thrive Academy. Her name is Tracy Matthews!

But before she found the success, entrepreneurial satisfaction, and creativity that she has today, she experienced tough times that eventually led her to bankruptcy.

In this episode, we talk about creative energy, how to protect it, her journey from bankruptcy to a successful businesswoman, what to do about the nay-sayers in your life, and my personal favorite, the creative archetypes she’s identified, and how knowing this can serve you and your business.
