Wanderlust-Alumni-Spotlight-Lexi

Q: Why did you want to start a Virtual Assistant business?

A: I started specifically because I wanted to work from anywhere. I was tired of not getting to go on family and friend trips.

Q: Who is your ideal client and what about them do you love?

A: My ideal client is niched in the wedding industry and is overwhelmed by the idea of social media content creation. I love that my clients are organized and fully trusting of my abilities as we get them going. I love that they aren’t afraid about concepts surrounding money, and treat me with respect!

Q: What type of job were you working in prior to running your own online business?

A: I was an administrative assistant.

Q: What has proven to be the best way for you to find your unicorn clients?

A: Personally? Manifestation and Clubhouse. I would talk about these things all day long so please reach out.

Q: What do you love most about virtual assisting?

A: I love the community that has developed around this concept. The idea of VAing has spread like wildfire and I’m so thankful to be part of it!

Q: What is one piece of advice that you would give other women who are thinking of starting a VA biz?

A: Relax. There is so much uncertainty at the beginning of this and it feels overwhelming and too much. What should I charge? Should I niche? Should I quit? What is booked out? How to send contracts? What platforms do I pay for? etc etc ETC. These are important questions but not worth the stress it brings to so many. These details will come naturally as you step further into your business and begin with clients.

Q: Tell us about your VA biz and what services you offer!

A: My VA business has seen a few different phases as I have discovered exactly what I want. I have so many skills from working as an Administrative Assistant, but what I really love is social media strategy and planning. I have 3 packages and a la carte options for business owners to consider depending on their needs. I ensure that social media platforms have consistent content being produced and engaged with.

Q: What inspired you to enroll in the Wanderlust Programs?

A: Rebecca – easy. Not only was she working the career I wanted, she was living the life I wanted. She inspired me so much from the moment I found her account.

Q: As you know, VAing can unlock the freedom we crave in our lives! What do you love to do outside of work?

A: LOVE this question. My husband and I live in Costa Rica and love love love exploring the rainforest near our home. There’s a lake we like to visit, and we just love being in the SUN.

Q: What has been the most challenging part of starting your VA biz?

A: Staying organized…. most definitely. Staying organized and preparing for taxes has been really difficult as I’ve started this business. There’s constant anxiety that I’m not doing it right.

Q: What does your “day-to-day” look like now that you run your own online business?

A: It looks different every single day – this is something I’m trying to change. I think routine would really benefit my life.

Q: You know how much we love to celebrate wins! What is a success in your biz that you are most proud of?

A: I’m very very proud of how quickly I stepped into this role. I felt the calling to search for location freedom for a long time and I didn’t hesitate with this step. I knew it was just for me and it played out exactly that way.

Congrats on finding location independence and moving to Costa Rica!
