It’s understandable, especially if the client is a coach, or energy worker, or another sort of spiritual entrepreneur. There are parts of their business that literally nobody else can do. That being said, there are a LOT of tasks that can be handed off, or even done collaboratively. A decent V.A. can help brainstorm and help their client with a plan that feels right to them.
I have supported a number of different types of entrepreneurs. personal/life coaches, business coaches, fitness and nutrition specialists, authors, and more. Everyone is different, as is what they are resistant to doing, and as a result, what they need a VA for. My general motto is to let them do what they do best, and I’ll handle the rest. I personally have found that a good communication flow, as well as decent time management skills, and a fair amount of flexibility are among the best tools to making the most out of the V.A. / Client relationship. Some clients like a very linear collaboration style and some are more visual and intuitive.
That being said, I’ve started compiling a list for those who need some ideas to get started as far as what a VA could help them with.
