โ€œI can't afford it right now.โ€

I want to challenge that thought for a minute. With love, of course ๐Ÿค

Because sometimes it's not that we CAN'T afford something, it's that we haven't stopped to look at what we're already spending our money on.

Let's put something into perspective.

What if investing in your future worked out to approximately $17 a day?

That's potentially...
โ˜• A coffee and breakfast on the go
๐Ÿฅ— A lunch out
๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™€๏ธ One reformer Pilates class

A few little expenses throughout the week that we don't always think twice about.

Now, before anyone comes for me... I'm NOT saying you need to give up your coffee, your Pilates or everything you enjoy and I absolutely understand that for some women, even $17 a day isn't available right now.

But for others.... it might not be about having MORE money. It might be about making a different decision with the money you already have.

I want you to think about that, because we can spend months telling ourselves we'll invest when we have more money.

When the kids are older.
When things settle down.
When the timing is better.

BUT what if investing in yourself is part of HOW you start creating those opportunities?

What if you spent the next six months learning how to turn your existing skills into a VA business?

Learning how to find clients.
How to confidently price your services.
How to build an income that isn't dependent on someone else deciding what you're worth.

What could that change for you and your family? ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

I can't promise you a particular income or overnight success but I can tell you that building a business takes action, commitment and a willingness to back yourself and sometimes that starts with looking at your priorities a little differently.

So here's my question for you...

If you knew you could create more choice, flexibility and earning potential for yourself, what would you be willing to do differently over the next six months?

Your future deserves to be a priority too. ๐Ÿค

DM me โ€œREADYโ€ if you're serious about building your own VA business and want to explore what support could look like.

Let's have a conversation ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ”ฅ

There are a LOT of new faces around here lately, so I thought it was time I properly reintroduced myself ๐Ÿ‘‹๐ŸคIโ€™m Sara: mum...

There are a LOT of new faces around here lately, so I thought it was time I properly reintroduced myself ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿค

Iโ€™m Sara: mum of two, founder of Assist by Sara + Coworking + Kids Space for Parents | Sunshine Coast, VA Business Coach and someone whose career looks VERY different to what I thought it would six years ago.

At 28 weeks pregnant, in the middle of a pandemic, I was made redundant from my corporate EA role.

I started my Virtual Assistant business that same day. Not because I had a perfect plan or knew what I was doing.

I simply knew I had YEARS of skills and experience that had value, so instead of finding another employer to pay me for them, I decided to offer them directly to business owners.

That decision changed everything.

I went on to build a multi-award-winning, six-figure VA business, doubled my corporate income, working only part-time hours and took Fridays off every week with my babies.

The biggest thing it gave me though wasn't the money....

It was CHOICE.

Choice around my kids.
Choice over my time.
Choice over the clients I worked with.
Choice to still be bloody ambitious without building my entire life around work.

Somewhere along the way, my mission became bigger than my own business.

Now I help other women do the same. Whether you're wondering how to turn your existing skills into a VA business, you're trying to land your first clients or you're an established VA and ready to make more money without working more hours.

I want you to build a VA business that supports the LIFE you actually want.

So if you're new here, WELCOME ๐Ÿ‘‹

Tell me below: are you thinking about becoming a VA, just getting started or already established? ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ”ฅ

Established Virtual Assistants, I need you to hear this ๐Ÿ‘€

You don't always need MORE clients to make MORE money.

In fact, sometimes signing another client is the very thing that's going to keep you stuck, because here's what I see happening...

You've built your VA business.
You've got clients.
You're making money.
You're really good at what you do BUT you're still operating with the same business model, pricing and services you started with.

Now you're wondering why your income isn't growing the way you want it to.

THIS is where we need to start looking at your business differently, because there could be SO much untapped earning potential inside the business you've already built.

Maybe you're still charging hourly for work that your experience now allows you to deliver in half the time.

Maybe your clients rely on you for strategic advice, but you're still only charging for implementation.

Maybe your packages no longer reflect the value you're delivering.

Maybe you're at capacity, but haven't considered subcontractors, project-based services or restructuring your offers or maybe you've just gotten so busy working IN your business that you haven't stopped to look at what's actually possible.

This is exactly the kind of work I LOVE doing with my established VAs inside my Mastermind๐Ÿ”ฅ

We look at what's working.
What's keeping you at your current level.
Where the gaps are and what needs to change to help you reach your next income goal.

Scaling isn't necessarily about doing MORE. Sometimes it's about doing things DIFFERENTLY.

I built my own six-figure VA business working part-time hours and taking Fridays off every week! Not because I kept piling more clients into my calendar but because I became intentional about how I built my business.

That's what I want for you too.

More revenue doesn't have to mean more hours. So if you're sitting around $5K months, wanting $10K OR you're making $10K and wondering how the you're going to reach $15K without working around the clock... I want you to start questioning your BUSINESS MODEL, not just your client numbers.

You've built the foundation. Now let's look at what's possible. DM me "SCALE" ๐Ÿš€ let's chat
