Subcontracting and Building Virtual Teams

The handout was great, but what I loved most were the interviews from Ms. Theresa Scholes and Ms. Serena Carcasole. As always the facilitator Mr. Craig Cannings highlighting the questions posed by the workshop participants were quite beneficial, especially it being a pre-recorded workshop.

I needed to make a career change and decided to try going virtual. Before I really knew what that meant, I was offered to subcontract doing Content Development. Thankfully, this Workshop addressed answers to questions that the owner was not able to answer. My thanks - it has probably saved me a huge headache later. Freelance 101 is now next!

It was great to hear from two experts who provided more insight into the business for them. It helped me decide that I am going to focus first on being a contractor until I have honed my skills to feel confident to go solo.

Very helpful as I sort through the VA channels and avenues for myself and how it may enhance my current consulting projects. Most helpful was the reference to International Virtual Assistant Association. Important to get involved, at the local level, if possible, and at the international level for expanding your network. Thanks and definitely recommend for someone trying to figure out which route to take and when one route might be better suited for you than another and then again, you might find yourself subcontracting and building a virtual team depending on your clients, time commitment, etc.

A very informative course for anyone who is considering hiring a VA to help them in their online business, especially if the business is growing or has the potential for growth. Full of useful information and tips to help in this decision process. It outlines the benefits and drawbacks. The interview was also very helpful. It provides tips to help make the transition easier and how to recruit the right VAs.

This workshop had everything I needed and was looking for. It presented the topic from two different angles, then provided answers to questions I had and some I didn’t know I had! It is definitely worth the time spent.
