Dear
'GrowMyVABiz' VIP Reader and Friend:
-
Do you know exactly
what business owners
want to pay you money for?
-
Do
you still have trouble finding or keeping the best kind of
clients - the ones that pay well, know
what they want, and have a sense of humor?
-
Are you
worried that your business
just
doesn't seem to taking off the way you
wanted?
450 Clients Over the Last 36 Months Have Told
Us Exactly What They Desperately Want To Pay For, But Can't!
Sadly, we've had to
turn a lot of those clients away. The problem is, there is
a
'mismatch' between 95% of Virtual
Assistants
we meet
and the business owners who want to hire them.
The
Result Is An
Unwin-Unwin
Situation...
Online
professionals like you
are not being hired and business owners are
left without the help they need.
This is
a very upsetting
situation to both of us! As
working moms who love helping others, and business owners who
enjoy being able to be at home, we believe there is a perfect
solution and we're determined to help turn an Unwin-Unwin into a
Win-Win.
Here's
the thing. We don't often brag about it, but
we've been in the Virtual Assistant Industry
a combined 10+ years and our own businesses are full.
In fact, they could probably be full close to 100 times over if
we took on all the clients we're forced to turn away, with no
one to refer them to.

What clients are saying
.... a ‘sneak peek’ into the conversations we have with business owners on a regular basis and what they are really asking for.
On Wednesday, May 21st, myself and my partner Tina shared what over 450 business owners have told us over the last 3 years – what they specifically need and want in a VA.
If you’re a Virtual Assistant who wants to learn exactly
what business owners:
-
want from a
Virtual Assistant
-
will and want to pay you money for
-
are saying in general about the Virtual Assistants they’re meeting
...
then sign up below to receive the audio recording from this call
Hi Cindy and Tina,
Just wanted to say thank you for the teleclass - it cleared up for me why you should have a niche market, how to work out your niche market and also how to identify a potential client and what to ask to help you do that.
This call was invaluable!

We’re not making this up – these are
actual items hundreds of business owners have told us they
need and want from their virtual partner.

Would You Like to Be On Our List of
Preferred Service Providers? You Can, If You Have the
Right Skills.....
Here is just a sample of the most common requests we hear from
these business owners on a regular basis:
"I need a VA who is going to think
ahead of me and take care of details so I don't have to
worry about them."
"I want a VA who is familiar with
and can strategically use the common online systems I
need to automate and build my business."
"Please help me find a VA who will
use her initiative, brainstorm with me and ultimately be my
partner. I'll reward him or her handsomely!"
We're
living very comfortable lives
while working in this industry and with a
special subset of
well-paying clients
that LOVE and APPRECIATE our contribution...and so can YOU.
In
particular, the kinds of clients we
find most rewarding and genuinely meaningful to work with
include:
- Coaches and Consultants
- Information Marketers
- Authors/Writers
- Professional Speakers
- Online Based Retail Businesses
What Does This Special Group of Business Owners Have In Common and Why Should You Focus On Them?
First
of all, they are all professionals who seek to serve others for
a living. This is very important! They want to make a
difference to other peoples lives, just like you, and that means
your values are aligned. Believe us when we say this makes
your work a whole lot easier and fun.
Second,
they need a Virtual Assistant who's
been trained in specific online based
tools and systems.
This is absolutely non-negotiable.
Without someone to help with these very specific tools, they
can't run, automate or grow
their businesses the way they want.
What this means is they need a
Virtual Assistant who can:
- setup, manage and strategically use
a shopping cart system to simplify and automate tasks.
- format and distribute
broadcasts - ezines/newsletters/announcements - and
consider ways to measure their effectiveness via link
tracking and open stats
- setup and completely automate online teleclass
registrations - from registration to post-class follow
up
- setup and maintain blog posts for
your clients, as part of their overall online strategy
- assist with creating audio and written
products and setting them up to sell on a website
-
support with attracting website traffic and list
building activities
- manage email based
customer service inquiries effectively
If You're Asked "Can You Help
Automate and Expand My Online Business On My Behalf?"
...Wouldn't You Like to Say "Definitely!"
This special group of
business owners also wants
a Virtual Assistant
with an Online Business Mindset - optimizing and growing their
business - something you can learn.
With these skills in hand, there
is literally a plethora of eager clients
ready and waiting to
hire you, literally, today. We see it regularly each and every month
- VAs with these skills
not only get busy but quickly
start to have to turn business down on a regular basis.
It All Comes Down to a Severe Shortage of the
Right Skills, Which If You Will Only Learn, Will Change Your
Business Dramatically
After literally 3 years of toying
with the idea, we have finally decided to go ahead and start
training active and aspiring VAs on these skills.
(What took us so long to offer this
training? This has been on our to-do list for a while now but
due to our busy schedules, neither of us has had the time
to get it going. After once again being asked 'Cindy/Tina where
can I hire a *you*' we've decided to make this training a priority so
we can help VAs acquire the skills they need to get the clients who are
eager to hire them.)
Introducing
the Grow Your VA Biz
'Hot Virtual Skills Training'
A 6-Week
Live Training Program for VAs who want to expand
their skill
set and
never go without clients again.
Before you dive in and say
'sign me up'... this training is not for everyone.
There are a couple of questions
to ask yourself before you join our VA Skills training program:
- First, what kind of client
do I want to work with?
Not every VA wants to work with the kind of clients who
require these specific skills. For example, there are a lot
of VAs who focus solely on working in the real estate
industry or with lawyers... in which case these skills are not needed.
If you
don't have an interest in working with the
clients
listed above, then we suggest you consider other VA
training programs that teach for the specific subset of
clients you are interested in. (There are lots of great general and
speciality VA training programs available).
-
Second,
do I enjoy learning and using online based technology?
This kind of work requires a 'technical knack'
and enjoyment of working online. An aptitude in using
various software systems along with a keen interest in online
business and marketing is a requirement. If email makes you
cringe, and you would rather read a newspaper then look at a blog, this may not be the program for you... there are
other VA opportunities and specialties you may want to
consider instead.
Here's just a
sample of what others have said about us:
 "I can't sing enough praises about Cindy and
Tina. They have helped my VA business
reach new levels I never thought was
possible. The
training and support I have received from
them has been so beneficial in helping me
build my business and the clients I work
with are phenomenal.
Thank you so much for helping me build my
dream!"

 "Both Cindy and Tina were essential
in the development and growth of my virtual assistant business by
providing specific in-depth, detail-oriented trainings around the tasks and software performed and used by VAs.
The
trainings always includes real world examples and hands-on participation, which is an important aspect to me. It is because of Cindy’s initiative that I became
well experienced with areas such as the
shopping cart program.
Tina and Cindy continue to support me, and my business through meetings, conference calls and an email Q&A group."

 "Thanks for a great training you guys. I just wish more VA's would take advantage of such good training. Money and time always seems to get in the way but if they knew what they didn't know, I think it would knock them off their seats....just my rant...."

Theresa Scholes
 "Cindy, I really enjoyed your our teleclass;
one of the best.
It was
well presented, easy to listen to
and even though it was basically about
common sense, it was good to be reminded
again of those simple little things that
make such a difference.
Thank you."

"This training provides valuable skills and knowledge, not just in the material and the audios and videos, but listening to Tina and Cindy speak and give examples of real-life experiences and how to handle them is invaluable.
I am a visual person and the videos were a big help.
Thanks, Tina and Cindy, for this training."

 “I’ve worked with Cindy for many years and have
been lucky enough to take advantage of her in-depth knowledge of the VA industry in many areas.
From my own training to co-leading classes, I’ve experienced
Cindy’s willingness to go above and beyond and provide extra support to
students.
Her extensive knowledge in the coaching
industry has given her a large understanding
of clients needs and more importantly she
has been able to translate that into
teaching new and experienced VA’s how to
anticipate their own clients needs and
become leading edge VA’s.
I’ve been waiting for her latest course so I
can send my own VA’s to be trained and look
forward to the results.”

 “The Hot Skills VA training course is awesome. It was presented in a very organized and professional way and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I not only picked up skills I was lacking but also some very critical ways to handle client relations - most importantly effective communications. I also learned how crucial it is to be pro-active when working with a client - seems deceptively simple - yet, there is somewhat of an art to it. It came through loud and clear for me in this training. I've already put this into practice and am getting great feedback from my clients.
Tina Forsyth and Cindy Greenway are excellent instructors and work very well together. I found their style of delivery informative, engaging and fun. They really know what they're talking about, and it's clear they are very passionate about helping their VA colleagues to gain the skills today's clients are looking for.
Tina and Cindy have their fingers on the pulse of the VA industry. You won't go wrong with this or any other course they offer!

"Thanks for a great class. While I consider myself more a writer and editor than a VA, the information you gave me has been helpful.
One of my friends would like to leave the hustle and bustle and I talked up your program. I told her that I have learned a lot about the shopping cart and feel confident that I can maintain it. I didn't feel overwhelmed by the information--the pace of the program was just right. I looked forward to each class to see what you had to say. Some of the things you pointed out were obvious (like telling!), but I'd never thought of them before. "
~

"I would first recommend the course and say that it
is worth the money because of the structured course and the information can be immediately applied.
Second, there are very little resources in which VA’s help other VA’s to succeed and
remain a constant support to each other. [Generally] top VA’s are not willing to help other VA businesses, let alone set up a structured course that is more affordable than paying
for hourly VA coaching.
Lastly, Tina and Cindy teach the knowledge VA’s need to know to start and keep a successful VA business, and they are also eager to answer any
questions we may have, at any time. (I constantly ask questions, even if they aren’t out loud, and I felt encouraged to ask if I didn’t understand something and not feel bad if I didn’t catch
on as quickly as my classmates).""

What
this program is not:
This program is not an
introductory program to help you get your VA business started.
We will not cover pieces such as naming your business, how to
market yourself and find your first clients, how to build your client base etc..
This is strictly a skills building course that will provide you
with the essential skills business owners are looking for.
If you have great VA skills and your business goals are to work
closely with only a few
top-notch clients, providing high quality
support and
earning more money, this is the program for you.

As
Little as 10 Hours of Work With One New Client
Can MORE Than Recoup Your Tuition...
Imagine a LIFETIME of BETTER PAYING, MORE ENJOYABLE Clients That
You Don't Have to Struggle To Find...
Before you let the price of this training
turn you off, think for just a moment about these three points:
| Key Point #1: |
How many hours
a month do you spend right now on marketing - struggling to
rustle up a client or two?
With the 'Hot Virtual Skills
Training' you will absolutely reduce the need to spin your
wheels in this way, and you can spend those hours EARNING money
instead of wasting it looking for clients in all the wrong
places...
Potential Dollar Savings? Let's say
you spend just 5 hours per week on marketing right now.
That's 20 hours per month of time you could be billing for. Multiply your current hourly rate by 20 and you'll your
potential dollar savings for only one month. Now, how does
that number seem compared to the one-time only fee of $697?
|
| Key Point #2: |
How often have you had a
client you worked hard to find, only to have them leave you
after a short time?
In business, this fast turnover of
clients is called 'churn' and refers to the agitated state of
your business when you lose clients as fast as you gain them -
ultimately costing you even more money. The 'Hot Virtual
Skills Training' helps you secure the right kind of client - the
ones that are dedicated and eager to partner with you LONG TERM
- so that you are calmer, less worried and more secure about
your livelihood...
Potential Dollar Savings?
This one
is hard to calculate! But try answering just one question
- how much is peace of mind worth to you? If you're
anything like us, it's worth a LOT to know you will always have
clients, and that those clients are stable and committed to you,
just as much as you are committed to them.
|
| Key Point #3: |
How much money have you
already spent to set up your Virtual Assistance business?
On your computer, your office equipment, even your software or
other training? Probably it all adds up to at least $2500
or more. But the funny thing is, none of that stuff will
actually EARN you more money. Only the ability to attract
clients will actually EARN you money. "Hot Virtual Skills
Training' is the piece that will turn all your other expenses
into paying clients. After all a computer is nothing if
you have no work to do on it, right?
Potential Dollar Savings?
Just add up all
the money you've spent already to set up your VA business.
Then ask yourself if investing $697 is worth it to put those
expenditures to work for you.
