TVAP #274: If I Had to Start Over Today, Here’s What I’d Do Differently
If I had to start my Techie VA business all over again, I wouldn’t waste time on low-paying work, charging hourly, or trying to do everything. Instead, I’d go straight to what actually works—and in this episode, I’m breaking it all down for you.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
✔ Why hourly rates keep you stuck & underpaid—and what to do instead.✔ The power of packages—how to stop trading time for money and sell results instead.✔ Why marketing is a must—tech skills alone won’t get you paid.✔ How to focus on your strengths & drop services that drain you.✔ Why the VA title holds you back—and what to call yourself instead.✔ How tech can help you streamline & scale faster—so you build a business, not another job.
By the end of this episode, you’ll know exactly what to avoid, what to focus on, and how to build a freedom-based business from the start—without the mistakes that hold most VAs back.
So grab your coffee and notepad, or just hit play, and let’s dive in! 🎙️✨
