Not your average experience inside

Hard times finding clients to make your business a success?

With the world upside down and feeling that I am nowhere near Australia, where I would much prefer to be! I stumbled upon an answer that would open my eyes wider to what was possible in any part of my business journey. With over 7.1 million businesses existing online (and growing), I wanted in on the opportunity to work with these companies! But a VA always conjured up a feeling of loneliness and doing repetitive tasks day in day out. Possibly administrative work that someone didn't fancy doing in their business. But, boy was I wrong - I was keen and hooked on the idea of learning a social media platform in less than 30 days - and it delivered. And with the world upside, anyone needs something like this to put them back on top.

Stop and read this before you go any further...

I wish I had discovered this months ago. Most courses I had taken lacked the framework that I needed to keep me accountable each day and on track. They were normally left to collect digital dust on my computer, where I had every intention of completing them. Hands up! We are all guilty of this I bet. How have you invested in yourself to achieve business success? I hope you're not struggling like I was. I loved the guidance from the program on how to use business rhymes for success, the way to network, and how to pick up a dreaded discovery call. I had never realised business rhymes was a thing until now. The thought of walking into a room to even want to start talking about myself let alone what I did made me wince quicker than downing a shot of whiskey. Have you ever been in that room when someone asked you what you did and you prayed that someone blurt out an embarring joke to take the attention away from you? But heck I found this girl that has your back every step of the way and I have learned all this and in it the right way from her guidance. I am going to introduce her in a minute.

Even if you're in business, you have a service, that you are still waiting for and wondering how you are going to build that door of opportunity so someone can come and take up your offer and hire you. This lady will show you how to build the damn door, nuts, bolts, and framework. When your tired of hearing the saying - build the door and opportunity will find you, she will guide you all the way.

So if you find yourself struggling and wondering why you're still not getting clients as a VA or even as a freelancer, I recommend the answer below. It will take you to a place where I feel it's given me everything that was missing from starting my own business. And it will give you your answers too.

I just wanted to say - if anybody is sitting on the fence, I wish I had started this months ago! I've learned so many valuable business practices from Jena while learning from her. Experiences and methods that I haven't seen from any other mentors who are teaching. And the fact that I'm sitting thousands of miles away speaks volumes about the quality and time she has put into this. I only wish I had started sooner. Doors of opportunity don't always build themselves! So make sure you can build yours.
