Although it may seem like the logical place to start most people interested in owning and running their own virtual assistance business leave out a key step
. Defining their goals and purpose. I made this mistake.
However after about a year of working my business I realized that I wasn’t getting anywhere. Not because I wasn’t getting work or making progress but because I didn’t know where I was going with this endeavor. I continued to do things with my business that didn’t contibute to my overall purpose and ended up taking me down paths that I really didn’t want to pursue.
Luckily, I stumbled across a resource that really helped me out. This could possibly be the most important step of starting your virtual assistance business. Do not skip this step. Take an hour out of your day to complete the process and when you finish you will have a clear picture of your overall goals as they relate to your internet business.
So step one of starting your own virtual assistance business is to define your major purpose for your business and in your life. The free audio that really helped me with this process was created by a duo dubbed “Sterling and Jay” from Internet Business Mastery. They outline the process of defining your major purpose or as they like to call it “The 3 Pillars of Designing Your Ultimate Interenet Lifestyle”. You can get the free audio by clicking on the link below. Don’t let the “sales” page fool you. The audio is completely free and really insightful.
