What you will learn

By the end of the course, you'll have a complete understanding of what virtual assistants are and how they can help you in your business. You'll know where to find the best VA talent, how to hire them, and how to work with them on an ongoing basis.

Why take this course?

Are You Running Your Business or is Your Business Running You?

This course is for entrepreneurs who are looking for a way to take their business to the next level. If you've ever caught yourself thinking there just aren't enough hours in the day, there is a solution.

And it won’t make you go broke, either.

Virtual assistants are essentially telecommuting contractors to your business. This course covers everything you need to know about virtual assistants, including:

  • Where to find the best ones
  • How to hire them
  • Best practices for working with them on an ongoing basis

It’s taught from firsthand experience, NOT theoretical or academic fluff. You’ll learn how a talented virtual assistant can help save you time, money, and headache.

Take control of your entrepreneurial life and learn how to effectively outsource your non-essential tasks. You’ll free up hours every day to focus on what’s really important.

In the end, virtual assistants can help you lead a happier, healthier, and more productive and stress-free life.

It's possible (and I would argue essential) to unload many aspects of your day-to-day work, leaving you free to tackle the higher-level, strategic, and money-making projects that often get neglected.

Time is Our Most Valuable Resource

But it's also the resource we are quickest to waste. After this course, you may not achieve the 4-Hour Work Week right away, but you’ll be armed with actionable advice on how to get started with outsourcing. The world’s most successful people didn't get there alone; they all had help along the way.

What are you waiting for? Let's get started on your outsourcing adventure today!

I've enjoyed the information that I received from this course. I hadn't completed the course yet, but we needed help in the office and taking this course let me suggest that we hire a virtual assistant to help with the calls we have to make. We were falling behind in that part of our job. We were able to Hire a company for a short term that helped us get back on track. Thank you. I also enjoy the instructors speaking pace and the information provided.

It is not really a good match for me. I am looking forward to, working as a virtual assistant not to employ someone to work for me as a virtual assistant. The course was majorly focused on how an entrepreneur can save his or herself time, and making more money or dedicating his or her time on what he or she knows how to do best by employing a virtual assistant.

Great course! Gave me valuable information and has really eased my mind in terms of the process/legality of hiring a VA. I feel ultra-confident to start outsourcing work in the future :) Thank you for creating this course. Cheers!

This is great. This guy goes deeper that I've seen before and I've read a lot around this. Even on his site there is a great comparison of outsourcing task services and before I found the site I only knew about the one with slick marketing. There's even comments from the assistants who work the service and discuss what it's like to work for the service in America.

This is a great course covering all aspects of Virtual Assistants. This course, by Nick Loper, starts at the concept phase of what VA's are, why you need them and what you can do with them. The course progresses through the various kinds of VA's, where you can find them, how you can evaluate them, hire them and pay them. Nick also discusses issues of taxation, benefits and legality with VA's. One of the most useful sections was Nick's "Tools of the Trade" section where he discussed, in depth, various tools, apps, etc that are useful for use with VA's. The tools he uses will help facilitate your shared communication with your VA's and others by allowing you to share your work screens together in real time and do so, while ensuring your the security of your passwords. The "Tools of the Trade" section offered much more than that, which could be applied to VA's or daily work and collaboration with others. For me, this section alone was worth the course even if I wasn't going to work with a VA. However, after going through this course, I feel much more confident that I can test the waters and ease my way into using VA's in baby steps without dropping a bunch of money or feeling lost along the way. One of the other things I love about Nick's course is the fact that he shares his real world experiences with us. He doesn't just say, "do this" or "do that." Nick outlines the various ways of doing things, but he also infuses his experiences and stories which makes it much easier to understand and helps us avoid making the same mistakes he's made. This is a great course that takes you all the way from idea phase to the finding, evaluating, hiring, using and paying phases of virtual assistants. If you are thinking about trying a virtual assistant, check this course out first!

I've actually been using VA's for a couple years now and I still learned a lot! Thanks Nick for such a great resource, and for including some "lessons learned" from your experiences. Great course & definitely worth the time if you're considering hiring a VA!

Excellent practical course on outsourcing. Broke the whole thing down into simple steps that I feel I can easily follow. I have outsourced tasks before but never on an hourly basis.

Nick is very knowledgeable on virtual assistants. He covers a lot of details on things to do, software to use and most importantly on things not to do to make sure the relationship is both productive and an over all Win Win relationship. Thanks Nick!
