The Orbit Report. Recent Happenings around The VA Connection Hello and Happy Sunday! Welcome to the weekly digest for The VA Connection=C2=AE Community. Scroll= down to see what you might have missed last week. xo=2C Belinda Belinda Sandor Founder & Chief Cheerleader The VA Connection=C2=AE ** Our Weekly Newsletter: The VA Buzz ------------------------------------------------------------ ** This Issue: Virtual Assistant Clients Are Unreliable ------------------------------------------------------------ The VA Buzz The number one thing I=E2=80=99ve learned in the 13 years I=E2=80=99ve bee= n a Virtual Assistant is that clients aren=E2=80=99t reliable. One hundred= percent not reliable. But that=E2=80=99s only a problem if you don=E2=80=99t understand how the= business of being a Virtual Assistant works. When we break it down=2C it= goes like this: clients need help=2C they hire a Virtual Assistant=2C the= VA assists the client=2C and gets paid based on their hourly rate. Pretty= simple. But there=E2=80=99s some confusion in how this plays out that causes disap= pointment and frustration for the Virtual Assistant. I discovered this con= fusion when a VA asked me how to convince clients to give them more work. That question stopped me in my tracks because when I heard it=2C I realize= d that this VA (and I=E2=80=99ve discovered many other Virtual Assistants)= is missing the point. When a client hires you=2C they might say they=E2=80=99ll need you five ho= urs a week. You=E2=80=99re thrilled to have regular hours you can count on= =2E But here=E2=80=99s the truth. Depending on those hours is a mistake and= rarely works out as expected. When working with a client=2C you are in service to their needs (note: I s= aid service=2C notservant; there=E2=80=99s a difference). You=E2=80=99re t= here to support them and what=E2=80=99s good for their businesses=2C no ma= tter how it affects the number of hours they provide you. One month might= mean 10 hours=2C the next three might mean zero. It=E2=80=99s a client=E2=80=99s prerogative to unpredictably change the am= ount of time they need or to stop a project in a heartbeat without giving= it a second thought. Not because they=E2=80=99re not wonderful and friend= ly people=2C but because worrying about you is not their responsibility. While this might sound terrible=2C it=E2=80=99s not. What=E2=80=99s terrib= le is assuming your clients are responsible for your success as a business= owner. Please don=E2=80=99t put yourself in the position of having a busi= ness that=E2=80=99s limping along and then blame your clients because they= =E2=80=99re not giving you enough to do. When you make the important mindset shift that you=E2=80=99re responsible= for having enough hours by consistently bringing in new clients=2C you=E2= =80=99ll be focused on what matters to achieve your goals. Don=E2=80=99t m= ake the mistake of focusing on the number of clients. That=E2=80=99s not a= measure of success - how many hours you=E2=80=99re billing is. (More her= e (https://thevaconnection.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3D329129029a= b35cbb26ae77f1c&id=3D2f574faa3b&e=3Dda042dfedc) ). Approach every new client as a potential long-term relationship=2C but don= =E2=80=99t depend on it. That way=2C you=E2=80=99ll always be on the looko= ut for new opportunities and won=E2=80=99t be surprised by shifting client= needs and priorities. To be successful=2C you=E2=80=99ll need to embrace= the in-the-moment nature of Virtual Assistance and roll with the flow. Check out all the posts in our blog here.

I was accustomed to a regular paycheck=2C healthcare benefits=2C and three= weeks of paid vacation. I never understood why anyone in their right mind= would give that up and start a business. And then I became a mom=2C and I= understood precisely why. In this episode of Lessons from the Cockpit=2C we'll explore why having yo= ur own business is better than working for someone else.

Assistant is that <strong>clients aren=E2=80=99t reliable.</st= rong> One hundred percent not reliable.<br> <br> But that=E2=80=99s only a problem if you don=E2=80=99t understand how the&= nbsp;<strong><em>business</em> </strong>of being a Virtual Assistant= works. When we break it down=2C it goes like this: clients need help=2C t= hey hire a Virtual Assistant=2C the VA assists the client=2C and gets paid= based on their hourly rate. Pretty simple.<br> <br> But there=E2=80=99s some confusion in how this plays out that <strong= >causes disappointment and frustration for the Virtual Assistant.</strong>= I discovered this confusion when a VA asked me how to convince clien= ts to give them more work.<br> <br> That question stopped me in my tracks because when I heard it=2C I realize= d that this VA (and I=E2=80=99ve discovered many other Virtual Assistants)= is missing the point.<br> <br> When a client hires you=2C they might say they=E2=80=99ll need you five ho= urs a week. You=E2=80=99re thrilled to have regular hours you can count on= =2E But here=E2=80=99s the truth. <strong>Depending on those hours is a= mistake and rarely works out as expected.</strong><br> <br> When working with a client=2C you are in service to their needs (note: I s= aid <em>service</em>=2C not<em>servant; </em>there=E2=80=99s a d= ifference). <em>You=E2=80=99re</em> there to support <em>th= em</em> and what=E2=80=99s good for their businesses=2C no matter how= it affects the number of hours they provide you. <strong>One month m= ight mean 10 hours=2C the next three might mean zero.</strong><br> <br> It=E2=80=99s a client=E2=80=99s prerogative to unpredictably change the am= ount of time they need or to stop a project in a heartbeat without giving= it a second thought. <strong>Not because they=E2=80=99re not wonderf= ul and friendly people=2C but because worrying about you is not their resp= onsibility.</strong><br> <br> While this might sound terrible=2C it=E2=80=99s not. What=E2=80=99s terrib= le is assuming your clients are responsible for your success as a business= owner. <strong>Please don=E2=80=99t put yourself in the position of= having a business that=E2=80=99s limping along</strong> and then bla= me your clients because they=E2=80=99re not giving you enough to do.<br> <br> When you make the important mindset shift that you=E2=80=99re responsible= for having enough hours by consistently bringing in new clients=2C you=E2= =80=99ll be focused on what matters to achieve your goals. <strong>Do= n=E2=80=99t make the mistake of focusing on the <em>number</em> = of clients. </strong>That=E2=80=99s not a measure of success - = how many hours you=E2=80=99re billing is.
