Today I had a lovely conversation with my VA and now friend - Claire Clarke VA. Claire built my CRM system for me, effectively changing my life for the better and saving me HOURS in my business (i'm not kidding!). I thought it would be a great idea to get Claire on, to talk about hiring a VA (the scary first step many of us take on this journey of entrepreneurship) as well as fears around hiring your first team member, and what the benefits of investing in tools and systems can do for you! We talk about! - My experience of hiring a VA and my meltdowns doing so! - Managing difficult clients - The benefits of hiring your first team member, and the fears! - The benefits of a CRM system for both you AND your client - Other tools, systems and hacks you can do for your business to get back more time. This was a thoughtful conversation between friends, and I am so proud of Claire for what she does for business owners across the board!
