ABOUT YOUR HOST
My name’s Sam Kabert, but my friends also know me as SwagSam. Currently, all of my businesses are operated by virtual assistants (VA’s). I “work” less than 4 hours a day and focus my time on strategic planning rather than working “in” my businesses.

I started my first business while in college and I’ve always had an entrepreneurial spirit; but I wasn’t able to become a “serial entrepreneur” until I unlocked the secret to have success with VA’s. AND I’m here to share my secrets with you so you can experience the financial freedom you deserve!

We all have the same 24 hours in the day; it’s how and where we choose to use our time that makes the difference. So, if you are ready to learn more about the world of VA’s, then this pod is gonna be your new BFF!

All you need is a burning desire and definitive purpose (to quote Napoleon Hill, author of “Think & Grow Rich”) to experience success from the teachings of this podcast. Put the work in and I know you’ll be checking off your goals, earning more money and working less in no time at all.

To Your Success,
Sam AKA SwagSam

#2: Who is a VA Anyway?

In this second episode of the Clone Yourself Podcast, my aim is to open your eyes to who a VA is as I walk you through how they can help you in your business. Learn More: https://www.cloneyourselfu.com/workshops

First of all, it’s who is a VA and not what is a VA.

Remember, virtual assistants are people that we need to build relationships with...

We need to make a mindset shift... to trust and the understanding of needing to be okay with letting go. After all, we’re only going to be able to GROW OUR BUSINESS after we let go of the tasks that are just straight up wasting our time!

A virtual assistant is someone who works as a freelancer remotely to assist in growing your business. The skills of VA’s are as creative as you can imagine. If you can dream up a task, you’ll be able to find a VA to help!

Patience is Key!
You need to be patient, expect some mistakes as you get used to working together and you need to onboard them properly. Remember, you’re in this for the long haul!

Change your mindset about those tedious time consuming tasks and learn to work less and play more when you hire a VA!

Some Quick Thoughts:

Where Are They?

Often times overseas, but not always... If they are overseas, then they’ll be working while you sleep! You’ll be waking up to completed work and it truly does feel like you’ve cloned yourself so that you’re always working.

Another Mindset Shift: View as Employees

Thinking of VA’s as employees as opposed to just outsourcing. Actually treat them like your employees (THINK: new hire feeling / training program, onboarding, reviews etc.)

Differences of Employees & VA’s

I think of VA’s as mercenaries (or specialists)... They have a specific skillset you are hiring for whereas employees are often jacks-of-all-trades.

Low Overhead

Not paying for their supplies in the office (laptop etc), you don’t even need an office. Instead of having a 5-10 person team in an office, everyone can work remote.

Working with VA’s prevents burnout since you are no longer doing all the work yourself.
Focus on your Strengths (the most value you bring to your audience) and revenue driving tasks as opposed to time-sucking tedious tasks.
