We would be nowhere as VAs without our clients. Clients are all
different and we can work for a wide range of clients across the world. We are
not limited to working with clients local as we don’t need to see our clients
to work for them.
What is important is that we get on with our clients, we build up trust
and as we do that, the clients begin to see how responsible we are and
therefore they can give us more and more work as they see what we can do and
achieve.
As a new client contacts you, arrange a meeting in a public place or
over skype via a video call etc. Ask questions and show an interest in the
clients company, their website etc, learn as much as you can about the client
as that will help your working relationship.
We often as VAs draw specific clients to us, I tend to draw Trainers and
these are the clients that I need as they provide me with lots of typing. I
love to type and because of the clients that I draw in I always have a constant
supply of typing.
Always try to turn your client into regular clients, brag about what you
can do, tell the clients how you can assist them, be pro-active and assertive.
Win over the clients trust and if that client is happy with you they will come
back time and again or become regular clients and they will pass on your
details to other people they know and meet, who they think would be able to use
your services. Word of Mouth is a great way to spread the news of your business
to new potential clients.

Your office does look nice and comfy, mine needs a bit of attention but it is getting there and liveable. I'm happy in it. You are right about colour as a warm colour can really make you feel better about things.
