Episode 11 Lynda’s Story

In this week’s episode, I talk to Lynda Stevenson, Podcast Manager. Her business is called LJS Creative Services.

In 2019 Lynda set up LJS Creative Services. She works part-time as well as running her successful VA business.

Interesting fact Lynda lives in New Zealand and runs another business with her husband hiring out VW Camper Vans! [1.52m]

Ultimately, Lynda wants the freedom to move around the country with their VW camper van business which is what led her to discover virtual assistants.

Lynda has a background in Graphic Design which is a fantastic starting point for her VA business.

She invested in developing her skills with online courses with Jenna Kucher [2.12m], Esther Inman’s 90 Day VA course and Lauren Wrighton’s Podcast Manager course.

These helped Lynda discover what things she most loved to do and want to do for her business going forward.

We talk about discovery calls [8.19m] and getting experience with them. A great tip is to practice them with a fellow VA to fine tune your approach and don’t forget to record them!!

Lynda’s top piece of advice for new VAs is the make sure your social media profile (whichever is your preferred one) is up to date with all your details, optimized to ensure you are talking to your ideal client and easy to read and navigate around. [15.41m]

Lynda’s Top 3 podcasts are:

1. Lauren Wrighton - The Podcast Manager Show  [18.52m]

2. Jenna Kucher – The Goal Digger  [19.15m]

3. The Sam & Jo VA Show   [19.41m]
