How I’ve been working with my clients for years

Hey Reader, Being good at tech is not enough for business owners when they want to work with you for years. When I just pivoted my VA business, I had no idea about most tech & operations. I learned everything on the job. So, it wasn’t my expertise that made them keep working with me. So what is it then? First, I start our relationship with honesty. Whenever a potential client asks me if I could do something in a discovery call, I’m honest. It will come out if you say you’ve set up an online...

Hey Reader, When I was launching the 4-figure Tech VA Membership, one of the first questions I got was what time the Monthly Collaboration Calls are. I was so glad I got that question because I have so many amazing women from all around the world on my email list and following me on my socials. Of course, she wanted to know when the calls are because she wanted to get the most out of this membership, and rightly so. Yes, you can always watch the replay because that’s something everyone in the...

Hey Reader, In the last 8 years, I’ve done a lot of discovery calls, and not every call ended up with a new collaboration. And I don’t have a problem with that at all. Not every business owner is supposed to be my client. Let me tell you why. Even though my clients have come through referrals since 2018, I always have a discovery call with a potential client. I want to feel if we are a right fit for each other. When I just started my VA business, I had the urge to say yes to everybody I had a...

Hey Reader, First off, happy New Year!!!! I wish you an amazingly fantastic 2026! The end of a year is always a great time to reflect, and I realised I've been working with my longest VA client every month since August 2018. I find this so amazing, and I'm sooooo grateful that we've been working together for so long. Here's how I became their "couldn't do this without you” person; they happily pay every month. This was what I was missing in my 9-to-5s. I didn’t feel appreciated most of the...

Hey Reader, Since 2018, every single one of my VA clients came through referrals — not social media, not posting 10 times a day, not “being visible.” Just quiet, steady referrals. Most VAs don’t realize this is possible… or that you can create it intentionally. And that’s exactly what I teach inside the 4-Figure Tech VA Membership. If getting clients feels exhausting, it’s probably because your current strategy depends on visibility, not relationships. And as an introverted VA? That’s the...

Hey Reader, I work only in the mornings for my VA clients. This was the life I always envisioned when I started my VA business. It didn’t happen overnight, of course. When I was still a general VA, I was working a lot more with no real results. And even when I became a Tech & Ops VA, it still took me some time to allow myself to work only in the mornings, because that felt like such a strange concept to me. Not working but reading a book on my couch at 2 pm. But guess what, I created my life...

Hey Reader, For years, I thought offering discounts when clients booked more hours was the smart thing to do. “Buy more hours → get a better rate.”It sounded logical. Generous. Even strategic. But here’s what I didn’t realize… Every time a client bought a larger package, I was quietly punishing myself. Not because they were difficult.Not because the work was hard.But because the more I worked, the less I made. And as an introverted VA who prides herself on being efficient, organized, and...

Hey Reader, You want to pivot into Tech & Ops… but the idea of another high-energy group program or overwhelming self-paced course?Ugh. No thanks. You’re not looking for endless Zoom calls or Slack channels that ping 24/7.But you also don’t want to figure it all out alone at 10 pm. You want calm, clear guidance. You want support that fits your introvert energy. You want flexibility with structure. That’s why I designed the 4-Figure Tech VA Membership with the best of both worlds. Inside,...

Hey Reader, There’s nothing quite like the moment when a business owner says,“I’d love to bring you on… what’s your monthly rate?” And instead of shrinking, second-guessing, or whispering the number…you confidently say your 4-figure price.And they say yes. But before that moment happens, most introverted VAs get stuck in the same loop: “I want 4-figure clients… but what do I even offer? What does a Tech & Ops retainer look like?And why would someone pay me that much?” Let’s break that open...

Hey Reader, Let’s be honest — nothing is more discouraging than working soooooo many hours in your business and still hearing nothing but crickets. You’re showing up, you’re doing “all the right things.” But clients? They’re just… not coming. And as an introvert, the idea of pushing harder or “getting louder” on social media doesn’t feel like a solution — it feels like a meltdown waiting to happen. So let me say the thing no one else seems to say out loud: If I was working 40 hours a week and...
