1.4 — Your First Week as a VA | Newbie VA Course (Free)
Your first week as a Virtual Assistant sets the tone for your entire career.
It’s not about being perfect — it’s about being present, responsive, and dependable.Clients rarely expect you to know everything. What they care about most is that you communicate clearly and take ownership.
In your first week, focus on three simple goals:
- Clarity: Ask questions early instead of guessing.
- Consistency: Respond to messages within a few hours during work time.
- Confidence: Track what you learn, even small wins — this builds momentum.
💡 The goal of week one isn’t to impress.
It’s to build rhythm — your pace, your routine, and your client’s trust.
By the end of that first week, you should know:
- Where everything lives (files, logins, processes).
- How your client communicates (email, Slack, voice notes).
- What success looks like for them this week.
You’re not just “starting work.” You’re stepping into someone’s system — and bringing calm to the chaos.
