services to offer as a virtual assistant

It’s a question many Virtual Assistants ask themselves when they are starting out – what services should I offer as part of my Virtual Assistant job? Well, ask yourself no more, as this list of 30 services you can offer as a Virtual Assistant will help you clarify things!

The choice is yours, but personally, I say offer a range of Virtual Assistant services and it’s a no to niching.

Why pigeonhole yourself and limit your potential when I am in no doubt that you have a whole arsenal of skills at your disposal. Skills that you have put a lot of time, effort, and potentially money into nurturing.

How many Virtual Assistant services should you offer

This one is entirely up to you! But let me ask you, how many services do you offer currently? If it’s less than 3, there are bound to be services you can add for very little extra effort.
