The Savvy Snippet: Get A New Job

August 14th, 2009 by Cristina Favreau

Getting fired is nature’s way of telling you that you had the wrong job in the first place. — Hal Lancaster

OK, so as a VA you’re not going to get fired. Here are your signs that you’re in “the wrong job”

You have no clients, despite your concerted efforts at marketing
Clients ‘break up’ with you after only a few months of service
You dread picking up the phone each time it rings
You wonder if the VAs who brag about how much they love their clients are for real. You think either their faking it, or there’s something wrong with you
You feel like if you sign up and take just one more course, THEN you’ll be good enough, get more clients, and love your ‘job.’

If you experience any of these feelings, it doesn’t mean you’re not fit to be a VA (although it’s possible), it just means you’re not working with the right kind of clients and/or not offering the right kind of services.

If you experience any of these feelings, we need to talk! I’ll help align your business with your personality and strengths.
