Imagine having an extra day or more per week. What would you do with that time?

You could do things like:

Set up a new sales funnel
Take on additional clients
Finish the project you’ve had on the side burner for months
Write a new email series to nurture your subscriber relationships
Create a group coaching program
Run an online course

Or, you could just work fewer hours and spend more time on things you love.

You could even do what I do – and build more businesses!

Most business owners spend hours doing tasks that can easily be outsourced. As a result, their business growth stalls, and they get frustrated, resentful, and burned out.

On the other hand, when they’re able to delegate a chunk of work to someone else, those same people are able to achieve a whole new level of success and satisfaction with their business.

And that “someone else” is a virtual assistant.

Hiring a virtual assistant is a turning point, especially for small business owners and solo entrepreneurs. It’s often the first time they can really scale their business.

However, it’s also something they tend to put off because:

They’re afraid someone else can’t do what they do
They think it will take too much time to train someone
They don’t know where to find a good VA
They’re not sure what a VA can do
They think they can’t afford it
…or any number of other excuses.

The whole prospect of finding and outsourcing to a virtual assistant is daunting!

That’s why we put together a course that walks through the entire process.

With ‘How to Hire a Virtual Assistant‘, we’ll walk you through the critical steps for hiring and managing your first virtual assistant.

We’ll help you identify what you want to outsource and the skills and qualities your VA will need.

Then we’ll show you how to find and select the best VA for your needs.

To ensure your VA’s success, we’ll guide you through things like setting up standards, training your VA, delegating, and motivating for future growth.

You will implement everything as you go through the course, and come away with an action plan and clear deadlines for the next steps.

FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

What's the difference between the Network and the Plus or Pro memberships?

The zindolabs network is a place (similar to something like Facebook, but for people that want to launch, grow and scale a business).

You have your own profile where you can connect with other members, give and receive feedback on building a business, become a part of many different groups and explore our Netflix style area with curated content, videos, and all things WordPress. Essentially a place where it’s all entrepreneurship all the time.

zindolabs plans are paid memberships that provide training through our systems, tools, and processes to help you at any stage of your business.

Instead of buying 10 different courses, creating 50 different processes, or even using 5 different systems, we focus on bringing in the most important pieces based on the stage of your business so you can build a solid foundation that can thrive in any economy. zindolabs Plus & Pro provides you the courses, SOPs, checklists, and guides you need to learn from launching to growing to scaling a business online.

Why create a community like this?

Being a full service marketing agency since 2009 I’ve done and seen it all! I decided it was time to create a community for like minded entrepreneurs so that I could help shortcut the launch to scale process for small to midsize businesses while quieting the chaos and overwhelm we all struggle with when starting a business.

We are all a part of dozens of Facebook groups, small communities through programs we’ve purchased, meetup groups, and LinkedIn groups. We have way too many contacts spread across multiple different websites without any standard for building and launching a scalable business in a $600 billion industry by 2024. * Sales projections

With the zindolabs Community, we are bringing it ALL together, bringing it home! We’re building a marketplace just for you.. the entrepreneur. Don’t miss this opportunity to… 🙌
