Hello! Love this Substack. How did you find your VA’s, if you don’t mind my asking? I’m in the market for new ones (also based in OR) and am having some trouble. Thank you for considering!
Just upgraded to a paid subscriber and read this piece you linked. So great! These two folks look incredible.
One follow up Q (feel free to disregard for any reason, obvs): do you manage your own work inbox, or do one of these lovely people do it for you? Thank you!
If you can access it, I just spoke on an ASJA panel about all of this, and the other 3 folks on the panel also answered these questions! I don't have them manage my inbox. My VAs focus on branding and marketing and managing systems. My editorial assistant does research and manages logistics (and sometimes sends emails from her account on my behalf!).

I found them -- Amar Creative House -- on referral from a friend! I also wrote about this a few weeks ago :) https://jennigritters.substack.com/p/when-its-time-to-hire-help
So so thankful to you for this labor and for your answers, Jenni!
Ooo thank you! Can I access it from your Substack?
I think you may need to join ASJA to get access to all of the panel recordings! https://www.asja.org/events-overview/2023-virtual-annual-conference/
