This week we discuss income generating activities.

When I first started my virtual assistant business I did not understand this concept. Not fully anyway. I thought doing my client work was income generating. I mean after all when I did the work I got paid. However, when other business owners discussed income generating they were talking about much more than doing the work.

In a sense, because I had already gotten the project and was doing the work that income had already been generated. I needed to focus on generating more.

What happens if the internet goes away? I’m wondering about this right now. I’m also thinking if this is the case, we need to run like never before and use it all while we still have access. As a result, more clients are coming. Get ready for them now!!

What if you could cut through what makes you nervous about speaking for the first time with potential clients? It’s possible when answer a few questions in advance. While this may seem like a no brainer, it’s not. If your responses are not written and reviewed prior, who knows what you’ll say when virtually face to face with a potential client. This weeks episode will better prepare you for your next call.

For years, I’ve written on post-its, blank sheets of a paper, inside different notebooks but not keeping everything in one place. I also tried setting my calendar to be focused on a set thing for an exact timeframe. However that left me feeling caged in. With none of these options working for me, I’ve finally figured out the best way for me to stay organized. A way that gets me excited for the day and looking forward to accomplishing all that I’ve set out to do for the week. I hope this helps you as well. If nothing else, it provides another option to try on your journey to getting organized.

It’s the return of the podcast and I’m so excited to be back. This week I share five things I wished I’d known before starting my virtual assistant business. I hope you’ll find them helpful and make your journey more focused on the things that are important to you and your business.
