So you became an OBM… and reality hit different. In this first part of a two-part series, we dig into the things no one tells you before stepping into the Online Business Manager role. From pricing mistakes to client misconceptions, from VA vs OBM confusion to the myth that certification alone brings clients knocking—we are pulling back the curtain.

We share the lessons learned the hard way: why asking better questions upfront saves headaches later, how to position yourself in a crowded market, and why scope of work matters more than job titles.

If you are thinking about becoming an OBM, are early in your journey, or even a seasoned pro looking for a reality check, this episode will give you the perspective we wish we had from day one.

🎙️ Takeaways you will hear in this episode:

• Pricing too low holds you back—raise it sooner.

• Communication online requires more intention than you think.

• VA vs OBM? Scope and positioning matter more than the title.

Part 2 is coming next week, but for now, grab a coffee (or something stronger) and settle in for some unfiltered OBM truth.
