“I used to wake up every day feeling overwhelmed. As the primary breadwinner in a household of five, I was beginning to feel like everything was too much. I had a small business at a local market making very little money, my siblings were still in school, and every peso I earned went to bills, groceries, and medicine.”
“This all changed when a friend had told me that I could work from home as a virtual assistant if I enrolled in some online training programs designed to provide a background in admin work. I was determined to turn things around, and so I did the training, I learned about CRM tools, client follow-ups, how to generate leads, and even learned some basic tools for marketing and social media.”
“I finished the training and set out to finally use these new skills. After applying for a ton of positions, I finally got an opportunity to work for a real estate agent based in California. At first, I handled listings, replied to inquiries, and scheduled appointments. But soon, my client began trusting me with more responsibilities, and eventually I was setting up her CRM, helped her start the automation process for follow-ups, was designing her property flyers, and even managing her social media pages.”
“She has even told me I have become an invaluable asset to her business!”
“Hearing how much I have helped her while her business grows gave me a lot of pride in what I was doing, and a renewed sense of confidence and purpose. Knowing that I helped her as much as she helped me and my family with reaching our financial goals, knowing that my family is stable, it’s a breath of fresh air thriving together, and knowing that we have built something meaningful together.”
