Gettin’ Along: Wondering if We Can Be Two Peas In a Pod?

One of the main goals for hiring a Virtual Assistant is developing a long-term relationship with someone who will support you and your business. Don’t you want someone who will be a good fit (i.e. two peas in a pod)? I know I do! 

But, we’re all human; and I know it is impossible to get along with everybody all the time. So it stands to reason that not every client will be right for me, and I will not be the right VA for every client. Take a gander at some qualities I resonate with (or don’t) in a working relationship: 

We’ll Get Along Fine…

I enjoy building relationships with my clients, focusing on helping them long-term to build their business and create the life they love. We’ll get along fine if you’re a business owner who:

  • Is a Christian or has a high moral/ethical belief system.
  • Has a professional attitude, strong business sense, and an idea where they need help to grow their business.
  • Has a view of where their business is currently, and where I can jump in to start helping them.
  • Has a sense of humor and a more laid-back perspective in general.
  • Realizes the value in having me help them, but can stand on their own if I’m on vacation.
  • Is family oriented.
  • Can communicate clearly and in a timely manner.
  • Can be gracious, understands that nobody’s perfect, and agrees that when mistakes are made we’ll work through them together.
  • Understands that we’re both business owners.
  • Wants a long term partnership with their VA that’s connected and more personal.
  • Is easy to talk to and has similar interests so we can relate to one another.
  • Is based in the continental United States and understands I am NOT responsible for GPDR if they do international business.

    Aww, Bless Your Heart…

    If you have ever heard a Southern woman say “Aww, bless your/their heart” – that’s a nice way of saying they don’t agree with someone or a situation. Along those lines, you may want to look elsewhere if you’re a business owner who: 

    • Doesn’t have a high moral/ethical belief system.
    • Doesn’t like to plan ahead and ends up rushing to deadlines.
    • Always comes to me with an “emergency” that must be done immediately (even if that falls outside my business hours).
    • Consistently has trouble paying monthly bills.
    • Manipulates situations and people to your advantage constantly.
    • Asks illegal requests of my services or does illegal business operations.
    • Comes from a constant place of negativity, is derogatory, or is condescending towards me and others.
    • Likes to intimidate others.
    • Is based out of the continental United States or needs help with GPDR compliance.
