About the Book

Thinking of making the leap from Personal Assistant to Virtual Assistant? Employee to freelancer?

This book gives the warts and all version of what life is actually like as a freelancer, the good, the bad, and the ugly, described with anecdotes, colourful language (!) and humour. This book is not really a "how to". It is much more a "why did no b*stard tell me it was going to be like this?".

This book is a down to earth glimpse into the experience of one Virtual Assistant. Being your own boss is great and has many positives but this book also looks at things that potential VAs might not have thought of. It covers everything from the challenges of going to networking meetings for the first time (and not having the right handbag or shoes for the job, never mind a 30 second pitch!), the types of clients you might come across (and when to avoid them like the plague!) and what it really feels like to bill for your time. It demystifies and explains many industry terms and quirks in a fun and down to earth way.

Charlotte Wibberley, then CEO of APVA says " This book is EXACTLY what the VA industry needs. Kathy's authenticity and humour give readers huge insight into what it is truly like to run your own VA business, focusing not only on the pitfalls but also on the incredible highs and experiences that you will no doubt encounter on your VA journey. Kathy gives real examples and thought-provoking tips to ensure you feel prepared for what lies ahead. A must-read for any existing or aspiring VA after an honest and informative peek inside our collaborative and growing industry."

Victoria Darragh, Chief Executive of the EPAA says: "Kathy's book made me chuckle on a number of occasions and frankly it was a refreshing read! Experienced VAs will absolutely relate to this and this is a MUST have book for budding VAs. "
