This year's conference was amazing. It was a day of learning, laughing, networking and listening to great speakers. I have took so much away that I can quickly put into my business. Looking forward to next years already
I have been attending the VA Conference since I launched as a Virtual Assistant and it's my must-attend event of the year. Not only is the conference packed with interesting and useful seminars and hosts the VA awards but it also means I can meet suppliers who can help my business and those of my clients, and is just THE place to be to catch up with fellow VAs. As I run a remote team, it's only at the VA Conference that I get the chance to catch up with some of the team in person, as well as VAs in my training groups and other networks.
The VA Conference 2022 was the first I'd ever attended and it was simply wonderful. What a fantastic opportunity to focus on our businesses and spend time with like minded individuals. It was great to be able to connect with so many lovely VA's across the country proving that our industry really is #collaborationnotcompetition. Thank you to all involved in the organising - I can't wait until next year!
The UKVA awards provide a bridge to the wider business community while promoting the role and value of Virtual Assistants to entrepreneurs and the SME business networks.
We are delighted that the UKVA Awards get presented as part of the Conference Gala Dinner.
A lunchtime training with @janmurrayuk - always good to stay up to date with thought leadership content and strategic content for building a VA business.
Back in the summer I ran a massively reduced 1:2:1 coaching/strategy call for £50 +VAT.

Saturday night and I am sat updating websites - so having analysed the analytics I have reduced the number of categories on the @bemyva_uk Directory that VAs can be listed under.
This means if you have a listing on here - I would love for you to check your listing - check the categories you are currently showing and
message me and I will ping you the form to check the full list of categories available, and for you to update your bio / links etc.
Saturday night, hubby is out at a re-union and so I am sat updating the VACT site with Black Friday offers.
I cannot believe how many offers are already in my Inbox, I would love to know what you have your eyes on this year?
I got home last night from two days away at a business retreat run by @gemmawent, it was great to spend some time working on myself and my business.
It was awesome to catch up with some amazing people that I have known for a long time but not seen for an absolute age. @yourproductivepa - @jen_mbva - Alex Platt (currently not on Insta).
All too often we can be busy working in the business and not really taking any time to stop review, reflect, refine what it is we’re doing or what it is we want to be doing.
The two days out of the office allowed me to reconnect with why I love being a virtual assistant, coach, trainer and mentor.
My favourite session of the 2 days was the session with @thehdbiz - I learnt so much about myself and why I do things in that short session. Shari - you are awesome - your passion shines through and for me your are a true #gogiver - thank you.
