Frequently Asked Questions

What is a virtual assistant? 

Virtual assistants are independent contractors and remote workers who perform administrative jobs and tasks for clients while working away from the client's office. They perform similar tasks to traditional office assistants but from a remote location.

Daily activities and duties may include managing contact lists, preparing office reports, scheduling appointments, answering calls and emails, handling customers’ inquiries, optimizing websites, content writing and editing, and many other tasks depending on the employer’s characteristics and criteria.

How do I become a virtual assistant?

There are a few steps involved in becoming a virtual assistant. It also helps to have a certificate or degree in whatever field of service you'll be offering, although it's not necessary. Then, all you need is a fast internet connection, a business model, and some clients.

Finding your first few clients can be difficult, but freelancing websites are always littered with potential clients if you don't know anyone looking for a VA. 

What skills do you need to become a virtual assistant?

Rating a business or an individual’s qualities plays a vital role in their success. For this reason, every VA must have certain skills and requirements to get good reviews from clients. Some core skills include computer skills, communication, reliability, and time management.

Other required skills include teamwork, resourcefulness, proactivity, and a certain level of independence. Depending on the niche you offer, you'll also need certain professional skills like copywriting, WordPress, and graphic design. 

How do I find VA jobs?

Once you're set up as a VA, finding your first client and your first steady stream of jobs is often the most tasking part of the entire VA process. However, there are a few steps you can take to boost your chances of finding your first client: 

  • Search job postings and enquire about job openings from your network or friends.
  • Apply to a company looking to hire virtual assistants.
  • List yourself on a flexible jobs website.
  • Take a paid VA training course, most help their graduates find jobs upon the completion of their training services.
  • Create a website and advertise your services.

How do I apply for a virtual assistant job?

Once you find a client, convincing them you're the right VA for the job is a different ball game. While applying for a VA job, the key is to convince your potential client you know your stuff. Your cover letter should tell them why they should pick you and provide your credentials, prior experience, certificates, recommendations, and anything else that is of consequence. 

Next, you should highlight your soft skills like communication, organization, and reliability. Attach a portfolio of your previous work samples, and you stand a good chance of getting hired. 

Some of the best virtual assistant jobs are available with traditional employers with a solid human resources department. If going for one of these, opt for an equal opportunity employer that wouldn’t discriminate against a prospective employee based on age, disability, race, color, religion, national origin, gender, or veteran status.

How much money can you make as a virtual assistant?

As a VA, there is no income limit. A successful VA can earn exorbitant amounts of money, so there isn't a set income or salary cap. However, research has shown that the average successful VA earns about $73,000 annually.

That number drops to approximately $57,000 annually for average-income VAs and $28,000 annually for low-income VA businesses. Therefore, if you’ve been wondering whether virtual assistant jobs pay well, then rest assured, you’d receive hefty paychecks in this line of work.
