Description
Want a flexible side hustle you can do from anywhere? (Even if you don’t think you have the “right” skills?)
Today we break down how to start as a virtual assistant, even if you’ve never worked online before.
You’ll hear from VA coach Laura Nicole Jennings, who shares:
- What services are most in demand right now
- How to identify skills you already have that clients will pay for
- How much you can realistically earn in your first 3–6 months

- The difference between hourly and retainer contracts
- Who pays for what when it comes to software and subscriptions
- How to build recurring income with built-in compensation reviews
