4 Game-Changing Strategies to Boss Up Your Virtual Assistant Hustle



Hey there, my fierce and fabulous fellow entrepreneurs, ready to slay the VA game like the kings and queens we are! If you're about making those boss moves in the virtual world and locking down those prime clients, you're in for a treat. Let's dive into our four killer strategies on which I am spilling the tea. Let's get into it!


🌱 Strategy 1: Work Your Inner Circle Magic


"Use what you got, To get what you want."

So listen, we're not here to sell to friends and family. Although they're not entirely off the table, they hold the keys to necessary connections. Drop those hints about your skills and what you do. Ask if they know anyone who may need some of your services.


Use those contacts to build your portfolio, increase your client profile, and watch those seeds grow into connections with business owners. Now you've got your first contacts and clients. Want to know what each one has? A link to another business professional. It's time to tap into that goldmine.




📣 Strategy 2: Testimonials for the Win


We all know trust is everything when building a business and getting clients. It's time to let others sing your praises. Get those Testimonials! They're your golden ticket. I've learned that after or during my services, I send a questionnaire with space for a testimonial; I use that info to gain my future clients' trust. If you are savvy, have your clients send video testimonials. Show your clients and audience that you're not just talking the talk but walking the walk. Let those raving reviews speak for you, and watch your rep shoot through the roof.

💻 Strategy 3: Virtual Networking Vibes


Say goodbye to those awkward handshakes and hello to virtual networking – the modern-day playground for hustlers like us. Scope out events in your lane, rub shoulders with hosts and attendees and watch the connections turn into collaboration opportunities. Sign up for webinar classes or even join a live chat on TikTok or IG to connect with others; with virtual networking, you expand your reach.


This is not about you, so get out of your feelings and that comfort zone. If you started your business to make money, help others, and do what you love, why not talk to others about what you do? Yes, this can be nerve-wracking, but if it is something you love or even like to do, go with the flow and talk about it. The networking vibe is all you talking about what you do and being attentive to others talking about what they do, Finding your people.





🗣️ Strategy 4: The Referral Revolution


Asking for referrals might seem scarier than the latest Doja Cat video, but let's flip the script. Are your clients satisfied? Are they cheering for you harder than your parents at your high school graduation? Then what are you waiting for? Don't shy away from asking for referrals. It's leveling up the playing field to gain more clients and trust.


A referral partner is a trusted colleague to whom you can refer business, creating a win-win situation for everyone involved. It helps provide your clients with the services you offer and enhances healthy business relationships.


It's about serving your clients and not turning away business, which can be a substantial benefit.
