Hi ms. Lauren, i am a mom and also starting to learn about being a VA, i am waiting to go back for my previous company after i resigned for 5 years but hopefully i can learn and pursue this homebased VA as i am saddened of the facr that i cannot be with my son for most of the time of the day. I saw your video and opened and watched! Love it #goldenmama..and i am a mama too..thank you and God bless..
Welcome -- and it's totally possible! This RUclips channel is a great resource -- I also recommend my free training as a great way to get started: www.thefreemamamovement.com!
Hi, Lauren! Thank you for your videos, they’re very helpful. I have a question: when working with clients in other countries, how do you get paid? How can you be sure the client will pay? Do you ask them to sign a contract? Thanks in advance for your advice!
Yes! You should always have a contract in place prior to beginning any work with a client. Depending on the services you're providing you can even bill in advance.
Any thoughts on the best laptop for being a VA?? I am starting up soon but need a new laptop! I don't want to spend a ton of money on one just yet if I don't have to.
Hey mama! Great question. I am a Mac girl personally. I used the same MacBook Air for almost 8 years! I recently switched to a MacBook Pro and both are great. They are pricier than PCs, but worth the investment if you can swing it. You can also look into refurbished models!
I would make sure to have a contract in place that states who has the rights to the created images - I highly recommend Kailey Jacomet with www.contractista.com/!
Great tips! Love Canva for my non-creative self. Makes simple designs super easy to create!
Canva is a GAME CHANGER!
I love your video because you're so "real, honest and sincere."
Thank you! I try to keep it real :)
Learning so much you are awesome
Wow this video of yours is very informative thank you for sharing Lauren
You're so welcome! What was your biggest takeaway?

LOVE all of these tools! #iamafreemama
Aren't they the best?! Which is your favorite?
@@freemamatv I LOVE Canva! I have the app on my phone and use it for social media posts! It's so easy.
How do you accept payments from international people ?
So I can charge a client for graphics I create via canva.. the only caveat is that neither the client, nor myself owns the image, is that correct??
I would make sure to have a contract in place that states who has the rights to the created images - I highly recommend Kailey Jacomet with www.contractista.com/!
#iamafreemama Great info! Thanks
glad you enjoyed it!!
