Sara really helped me get clarity on my purpose as a VA, and what I wanted to do with my business. I learned that it is possible to live and stick to boundaries that help me enjoy my job everyday. I loved the encouragement and would absolutely recommend The Start!
Since participating in The Start, I have shifted from VA to OBM and finally have my business right where I want it! Sara’s guidance and support throughout her program helped me realize my business was not set up to give me the true flexibility I wanted for myself and my family.
I got rid of the energy draining clients, changed my mindset, focused on what I enjoy doing and not just what I thought clients needed. I increased my monthly retainer and kicked hourly work out the door!
Sara provided templates for us to literally explore our reservoirs of skills, experience, and passions. With this information, I was able to formulate high-ticket service offerings that brought in ideal clients that had no problem paying top tier rates.
I can say without hesitation that Sara has a way of empowering you with both information and motivation. If you take The Start you’re literally handed the tools to have a successful done-for-you service, but often the mind-fog gets in the way of you actually succeeding or even executing. Sara (The Start) debunks the limiting myths that we so often tell ourselves and empowers us with tools to “see it” for ourselves. While I’m grateful for the content, I’m most grateful that I now have the absolute confidence that I can have a very successful done-for-you service that works for me completely.
The Start is easy to digest and it didn’t feel overwhelming. While working a FT job, it’s hard to also work on your business. The actionable items fit perfectly in my daily schedule. In the weeks where I fell behind a bit, I was able to catch up on the weekend and prepare for the next week.
The Start helped me to see that I was standing in my own way in several areas. We often make things harder as entrepreneurs because we want to do what everyone else is doing. It is important to create our own processes, which Sara helped to guide us in doing through this program.
The Start helped me to build a foundation for my business but also helped me learn all the details along the way. I have a better understanding of what it takes to work and a plan to develop what I need to grow my business.
The Start gives you confidence to build a business that works for you. Sara is clear every step of the way that you can build your business any way you want while at the same time offering valuable information around industry standards and best practices that she knows first hand will land you results. This creates the perfect balance to show up boldly for yourself in a way that feels good and confidence that you are building a sustainable + profitable business. Sara does an amazing job of breaking down the steps you need to start your done-for-you service based business into simple, actionable pieces. The daily emails help keep you accountable and showing up daily for yourself and your business so you can move your business forward quickly and with ease.
Before beginning The Start, I had no business. No clients, no packages, no idea what services I was even going to offer.
When those emails pop into your inbox, shit gets real! It brings your business to life instantly and gives you the opportunity to see what you have been working to create in action.
If you are looking to start a done-for-you service based business and don’t know where to start, this is the program you want to be in.
Sara’s lessons were GOLD to me, they were short and sweet and packed with so much value.
I love how The Start makes you feel totally equipped and ready to start your virtual business. Sara gives you all the tools and makes it really simple to understand and get started. As a stay-at-home-mom of two, I didn’t think I’d be able to build a business for a long time. But Sara helped me see that I can still have a ton of time to dedicate to my little ones and build a business I love. Sara has a ton of experience in this field and is completely honest about what worked and what didn’t work for her. She keeps it real and it’s refreshing. I know I can trust her advice.
The Start gave me all the tools to build my business and confidently reach out to prospects and create sales. Sara helps you start your business AND scale it in a healthy way. She sets you up with important guidelines around boundaries, price increases, referrals and so much more than what I had signed up for. I’m so happy I invested in this program. It’s been a game changer for me!
This program will give you everything you need to get started as a Virtual Assistant ASAP.
During The Start, I became more confident in pitching myself because I felt like my business was real. Because of that, I booked a paying client while I was still in the program.
My plan was to use the tools I learned in the program to set myself up for success from the beginning and make this business my full-time career.
And now just 6 short months after beginning The Start I have a booked out roster of clients, just had my biggest month in business yet at $8K and have Discovery Calls still rolling in. I’m in the process of hiring my first intern to keep my business running while I’m on maternity leave.
I am so glad I decided to start my VA business with the support of The Start and 100% recommend it to everyone I know.
I actually created a business from ground zero with The Start! I officially have a name and a package of services to offer & it’s really exciting!
I liked how the information was given each week in manageable increments. A lot of VA’s starting out have other full time jobs, careers and families. The Start’s 6 week course was the perfect amount of time to implement each lesson, leaving you feeling accomplished and motivated to continue!
I loved that The Start was broken down into digestible information and daily to-dos. I could feel it build as the program continued through the six weeks and appreciated that by doing it this way, it also built up my confidence along the way. I loved the group coaching calls.
After completing the course, I am now obsessed with Asana and Dubsado and have amazing templates to use as I start my own business. I didn’t have a business before I began The Start, but it truly gave me the push, knowledge and confidence to START!
