    I started searching for online jobs last Feb 2022. I got my first client on Mar, and got 2 other clients on April. Started with $3.5/hr, now I'm currently earning $6/hr. Dapat matiyaga lang talaga ka sa pag apply. Totoo na you have to go through a lot of rejections. I think nka at least 200 applications na ata ako or more. 😅Got all my clients from OLJ Ph :)

    You are my favorite VA Vlogger! I really love how create your videos and everything you say is just so clear.
    I started applying on the 2nd week of June. For this whole week, I was already giving up because I don't receive any emails or invitation for interviews until I saw your videos. You said that you had your first client after 3months, like wow, and I'm giving up in just a week. Lol. Then I watched your tips and apply that to my interviews. And this last week of June, I was accepted for two VA agencies and one direct client which is a Law Firm. Now I don't know what to do with these three. 😅

    Thank you for sharing the reality of freelancing....wahahaha...I've been there. I am earning decent enough like 20k/month. Okay na. but I want to improve it pa in the future. I'll be investing in programs to help me with my freelancing career flourished. That is another reality, in order to achieve being the highest and sought after freelancer you need to invest in yourself. Trainings, programs, or even up skilling. Ipon, ipon para pang training, malas pa pag nasiraan ng gadget like computer or webcam, another gastos. But I still go for freelancing because of freedom of time. And I know someday, I'll achieved my monthly income goal 😎

      For you to make a big amount of money in the freelancing world, you really need to specialize so you can position yourself well in the marketplace. When you're an expert at something, you'll def be able to charge a premium price.

    May I ask what is your advise for an introvert aspiring VA? Is it possible to be a VA even though you not a social media person yet you have all the skills? Ive been an Assisitant before of a businessman but it wasnt a virtual one and it doesnt require socmed profile thats why it worked for me. Hope you can help me decide.

      Skills and the results you deliver are what really matter here in the freelancing world.. Clients doesn't care about your personality. What they really care about is you'll do whatever it takes to deliver the results they expected!

    Yes, freelancing IS challenging and it's not for everyone. But if you do decide to take your first step to becoming a freelancer, join us at Groove.
    Groove is a digital co working space designed to help you and other freelancers get sh*t done with fun ;)
    You hop on for 50 min distraction free sessions with fellow Groovers who're online at the same time (or you can schedule your own Groove session beforehand)... and then you proceed to flesh out your to-dos, get them done, discuss with each other what you were able to accomplish, and repeat the same process with as many Groove sessions as you'd want!
    Groove is currently free, and you can use this sign up link to join in! links.groove.ooo/youtubefc
    I have been using it for the past couple years, aside from also building it with my colleagues, and the whole point of us doing this was to create something that:
    - can actually help you get work done distraction free
    - and introduce you to like minded people who can form a supportive friendly community!
    Working as a freelancer gets really lonely at times, and I hope by using Groove, you will feel a little less isolated, and a lot more supported :D
