For a basic understanding of operating a virtually anywhere business. The first step I recommend you take is to download my free eBook – “The Virtually Anywhere Business.” This will help introduce you to the virtual world, and the possibilities available to you in the virtual assistant industry. There are many roles that are open to you depending upon your experience; they range from virtual assistance to online consulting and business management. Once you read it, you’ll know if this path to joining the VA industry sounds like the one for you.
At this stage you might also want to take a little field trip to visit my own Online Business Consultancy and Virtual Assistant Services Website, “Virtual Miss Friday.” For me, this is where it all began in 2005 as a start-up freelancer, at the end of 2007 I opened a solo virtual assistant practise with just myself, within 4 months I was hiring a team, within 2 years the company was making 6 figures and within 4 years, multi 6 figures. But regardless of the financial success of the company, the most important factor to keep in mind is that I have never compromised on quality and service. The company is operated using my unique business model, professionally and to an impeccable standard.
By visiting my website you can see The Company That Generates A Multi-6 Figure Income All While I’m Travelling In The ‘Real World’.This is the Ultimate Entrepreneur’s Passport directly into the virtual world, this is a continuously growing host of professional resources for your online business. The adventurous entrepreneurial members of “TVAP” are a vibrant group of a variety of online service providers in different sectors of the VA Industry.

“The VA Shoestring” guides you through a DIY process of setting up a basic services company – this is really for you if you’re sitting on the fence, or you have decided that you’re not quite ready to make an investment into a scalable business – you can try this on for size, on an insanely tight, shoestring budget.
The programme will provide a complete checklist of the basics, where to go to obtain them, how to set them up, and how to integrate them. Video training is provided so you can literally go through following the steps. If you are completely new to working online, for example you have no experience of working on the Internet, or you’re really not sure if this industry is for you, then the shoestring is the perfect opportunity to take those first steps into this amazing online world.
At the same time, if you are only intending to have a small scale VA or consulting company, or you only intend to offer a single or handful of services, then this is also perfect for you, for example, you may specialise in transcription, be a writer, or a social media consultant. Your business may not have the team to be scalable in the same way, so this is a great opportunity for you to have a small scale, “professional” set up, without breaking the bank.
And finally, this programme is for when you’re on the fly! Even if you’re still working a full time job, taking care of a home, or simply too busy – you should still be able to set this up to start working within a month.
This is the ‘Mothership’… I should also mention if you want to dive right into this, you’ll get The VA Shoestring, and 1 Year Access to The VA Passport FREE when you become an Apprentice.
If you’re really serious now about taking the journey to your own personal success online, then the next step is “The VA Apprentice.” This programme will teach you, step-by-step, how I created my company, how I run my company, and how I developed the company into 6 figures in the first 2 years of business, hired a team, and removed myself from ‘billable time’ into an online business consultant and manager. In addition to the learning modules, I am on hand with a range of coaching options, and my team from Virtual Miss Friday works with you to build your website, and implement various other creative and technical projects essential to the success of your virtual assistant company – no other virtual business programme provides such a comprehensive, in-depth practical hands-on support service, or unique business model to follow. To see the full curriculum, implementation options, available tutorials and range of bonuses which come as part of the programme, please visit http://www.TheVAApprentice.com
You’ll learn a “tried and tested” 6 figure business model from start to finish, taking you through step-by-step all the tools, systems, documentation, templates, marketing, project management and organisational strategies I have used to develop Virtual Miss Friday into a sizeable, healthy consulting and virtual assistant business, which – and this is vitally important – I am able to step away from when I need to, and it still generates income.
Once you have taken the programme, you can apply to be entered into my directory, “The VA Black Book” — because of the nature of the work that the The VA Apprentice members have put in, and the fact it’s not a ‘anyone can join’ directory, this makes The VA Black Book one the most elite virtual assistant directories on the Web. Clients are fully aware that not just anyone is able to apply to enter the directory, and that’s the way I like to keep it. The VA companies in the directory are personally endorsed by me, primarily because I have spent several months during The VA Apprentice programme working with them first-hand, and because they have taken The VA Apprentice programme, they can also receive an accreditation, demonstrating to clients that they have a unique, ‘customer focused’ business model.

In 2008 I began working with a client who happened to also be an “amazing” business coach and consultant for a variety of major multi-national organisations – his name is Alan Gillies. In 2009, we began working together, but on a different sort of project, on my VA business, and with unimaginable results – at that point I realised that the industry needed this type of mentorship – tough love, cold hard business sense, which is quite simply required to not only achieve business goals, but to exceed all expectations.
I am now collaborating with Alan to recreate the mentorship programme that took my VA company, Virtual Miss Friday, into a multi-6 figure company, which has given me the confidence and ability to keep growing, expanding and evolving – the right way!
The programme will be designed for consultants, online service providers and virtual assistants with an established business, or small to medium clientbase, and in a word, it does what it says in the title – and if you follow it, you’ll have the deck stacked in your favour for becoming a Rockstar in the online business world.
This programme is still in the early phases of development, but it’s a complex series of educational sessions and exercises, which we are turning into an “easy to follow and implement” programme, which is certainly well worth the wait!
With a virtual business, there are no limits on what you can do with
your life, whatever destination you choose professionally and
personally, and owning and running a profitable, flexible VA company can
help get you there. It may happen quickly for you, or it may take time,
everyone is different. You need to persevere, to work hard, to be
patient and to never forget why you are doing this and what your end
goal is. Always remember, you only ever get out, what you put in.
In just a few years, and through a variety of challenges that come with travelling while developing a business, and only having the Internet to do it on, I created my ideal VA company all while I was already living my ideal lifestyle as a nomad – I didn’t wait for that part, life is too short and I am one of those people who jumps right in, to everything I set my mind to. I am first-hand proof that an ‘ordinary’ person can take charge of their own destiny, and become whatever they want or need to be. I am also a believer in fate, life presents us with opportunities and it’s up to us whether we take them. Did you land on this page by coincidence, or was it fate?
Now you know what to do, I am here if you need me, at every destination on the map…
