LinkedIn Masterclass Questions n More...
Thank you Erin for putting together the meeting and the materials for us to utilize for our LinkedIn page and what to do from there to gain visiblity. I do have a few questions, concerns and just have some duh moments. I've attahced the banner that I created. Per the meeting you shared we should include contact details; so my guess is I should include my email address in the banner? Here are my questions/challenges I landed a full-time job, I'm grateful for this new journey but the pay isn't ideal. Anyhow, with that said, my hours are 8:30a - 5p EST Mon - Fri and then on top of that, I work a 2nd job 6p-11p Mon-Fri. My goal is to build clientele so that I can leave the 2nd job. 1. How would share my availability when I have such a tight schedule or even do a meeting to get to know the potential client? What are some recommendations because I'm stressing over here 😫 2. How do I locate businesses that will not require that 8-5 Mon-Fri schedule? 3. In the meeting you mentioned liking/following small business owner, CEO, etc. seeing what they post and interacting with the posts. You said pay attention to things they may be struggling with or something they may need help with a better process. I must be following the wrong people and my for you page must not be showing me the right thing, or maybe I don't know what to look for, but how do I go about finding these type of people or businesses and what would be some key things to look for that would give me some insight that they may need a help with a process or support. 4. I'm just starting so I don't have a "who do you serve" to include. I know you provided some headlines we can use and tweak accordingly but i feel lost. I feel like I had some other questions earlier but I can't think of them at the moment. I will post any more questions as they come to mind. In the meantime, please give me feedback on my banner. I will share my LinkedIn page once I have it formatted accordingly. Thank you in advance for your time and help. 😊

I can understand how you feel. You have a busy life and trying to get a business up and running. I am in a similar boat. First I recommend, breath. I have learned to take one problem or one small bite at a time. I also review Erin's vidios and content many times. As for question number one, I plan to set my hours for after I get home at night. Then have my days off as my meeting times by appointment only. That's where your email would come in to play. Sometimes just to achieve our goal we have to work asynchronous. That is my plan so I can replace a current job. Your other questions are good ones. Maybe someone else could help with that. Your like two steps ahead of me 🤭, no worries we will both get there in our own time.
Mid-week challenge! 🧩 The Skill Inventory Drop.
Happy Wednesday! Here's a mid-week challenge for you. List 3 things you find easy that other people seem to struggle with. No filtering, no "does this even count," just the list. Here's the thing. The stuff that feels totally obvious to you? That's not nothing. That's years of experience you stopped noticing because you've been doing it so long it feels like breathing. Major bummer that we discount it so fast, honestly. I promise you, someone out there is paying good money for exactly that. Drop your 3 below. 👇

@Patricia Richardson and I've been told I don't smile at all. I laugh inside, a lot. The people saying it think their job is to be a people shredder. I will be smiling a true smile as I walk out that door... might even say thank you. This course is the best thing for me. I'm sure a client will know when a smile is real and natural.

Hey Y'all! I hope everyone is doing great. I've been somewhat MIA as I was busy moving 2 of my daughters into college. Whew that was exhausting and now I'm adjusting to the house being really quiet 🥺. I'm now back to get cranking on completing the Blueprint and learning more for the community and Erin. I finshed my logo and company name. Let me know what y'all think 🤔. I have been applying to FT positions. I'm still awaiting the yay or nay on an interview I had which I should know by next week. If I were to get a FT job during the day what companies or group of individuals should I target? These are the list of services I'd like to provide. I'm sure the list is long and as time goes on this will decrease in some areas and evolve in others. Admin Support - Calendar and scheduling - Inbox management and email organization - Document prep, formatting, and organization Customer & Client Support - Email/ticket management (Zendesk, Freshdesk) - Escalation handling and complaint resolution - Ongoing customer care coordination Hiring & Onboarding Support - Job posting and candidate screening support - Interview scheduling - New hire onboarding and document follow-up - Applicant tracking updates Operations, SOP's & Process Improvement - Auditing and improving disorganized processes - Team training material creation - Onboarding/checklist material creation - SOP and knowledge base documentation I'm open to any feedback, suggestions, tips y'all can provide 😊

Awesome logo!
Module 4 - Rates question
I completed Module 4 regarding the rates. I took my list and plugged it into perplexity and it provided me different rates for the list of services based on their categories. This is what it gave me I would start with: - $30/hr for administrative work. - $38/hr for customer support and hiring coordination. - $50/hr for operations, SOPs, and process improvement. - A two-hour minimum for ad hoc work. - A 25%–50% rush premium for urgent, same-day, evening, or weekend requests. - A monthly retainer minimum of $600–$750. I guess my question is, would I start with different rates depending on the type of project/task; is that ok to do?

I am so glad this question was asked and answered.
Must-Have VA Skills Course
Happy Wednesday to you all! I probably missed this somewhere along the way, but is there a somewhat detailed description of the Must-Have Course? I just wondered what all was covered. Thanks!

For me, the must have skills program really helped me understand the foundational skills. Blue Print is next. 🥳

So far I have taken 2 of the courses Erin offers; starting on the third. I recommend all of them. Best part, well one of the best parts, is you can go back and refresh your memory on how to do something at any time. Your excitement makes you unstoppable! Your determination will make sure you succeed.
