About this episode
Running an agency isn’t the only way to grow a profitable VA business – but it’s definitely a great option for those that have the skill set to do so.
Jo’s secret ingredient to running her own successful VA agency (with over 30 team members) is that she doesn’t focus solely on her clients’ needs, she works hard to ensure her sub-contractors and employees are happy and productive.
If you thought recruiting your team of VAs was tough, managing them and creating an inclusive workplace that ensures they stay motivated and stick around takes a whole different set of skills including the all important self awareness and EQ.
In this episode we share 7 easy and effective solutions to help keep your team happy and productive.
Because remember – happy people make happy teams, and happy teams make even happier clients!
In this episode you’ll learn:
- Why sub-contractors aren’t a ‘set and forget’ tool.
- The leadership mindset mistakes you’re making.
- The tough conversations you’ll need to get comfortable having.
- How to inject fun into your business.
