We go over the assessment and your administrative task list and talk about additional ways to free up your time. We delve into your current processes and procedures and what needs work and what doesn\u2019t, and we discuss how we both see a VA partnering with you to achieve your goals.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on||” admin_label=”Deeper Waters – Desktop” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_color=”rgba(159,193,190,0.68)” custom_margin=”15px|15px|15px|15px” custom_margin_phone=”2px|2px|2px|2px” custom_margin_last_edited=”off|phone” custom_padding=”15px|15px|15px|15px” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”2px|2px|2px|2px” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” box_shadow_style=”preset2″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

During this call, we dive deeply into working together, virtually, and what that really means for both of us. We talk tools & preferences and get better acquainted with how we can best accomplish things, delving deeply into the core of working together. Often collaborative partnerships fail because these deeper issues were avoided.<\/p>\n
We\u2019ll focus on our different (and like) perspectives on:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Work Style:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0My clients and I don\u2019t work 24\/7 and we believe in self-care.\u00a0 We also believe in strong communication, keeping our word, and being respectful.<\/li>\n
- Standards:<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong>My clients and I have strong standards which govern the work we do for and with others, and how we run our businesses.<\/li>\n
- Boundaries:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0My clients and I both have great boundaries around our work and our lives.<\/li>\n
- Problem Solving:<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0My clients and I work together to solve problems for the greater good.<\/li>\n
- Conflict Resolution:<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong>My clients and I are upfront with one another about issues, maintain respect, and give one another the benefit of the doubt when things go awry.<\/li>\n
- Communication and Collaboration:<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0 My clients love having me help navigate so that they can focus on where they are going and I can help with direction, overcoming obstacles, and keeping them on time.\u00a0 No one is left in the dark without the tools to do what needs to be done.<\/li>\n
- Service Gaps:<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0I have a very strong core skill set, but no one can do it all, well.\u00a0 There are things my clients need from time to time that fall outside of that skill set, so we have a plan of action to tackle those things together with other resources.<\/li>\n
- Equality:<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0My clients and I are both business owners, and my business and I support my clients as an equal.<\/li>\n
- Fees:<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong>My clients know I am not the cheapest VA out there\u00a0nor am\u00a0I the most expensive. They\u00a0find value in the gifts, skills, and work I bring to their businesses and lives.<\/li>\n
- Processes:<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0 My clients and I both have to have them. Period.\u00a0 There is time each month spent creating and maintaining processes so that while I help them navigate their business, share their gifts, and live their purpose, they retain the tools they need to have the greatest success.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
These topics are by no means all-inclusive, this is the call where it all boils down to whether or not how I work works with how you work and visa-versa.<\/p>\n
When this final deeper waters discussion call has been completed (if we have really been open, honest, and put ourselves out there) we will both know about as well as we can (without actually working together) if we are ready to get started.<\/p>\n
If we both determine we are a good fit for one another, and we\u2019re both confident and enthusiastic about collaborating, we enter into our new working relationship.<\/p>\n
You\u2019ll receive my welcome kit, which you will complete and return.\u00a0 Then, we go through a set-up process to get things in place for a smooth start, and we\u2019re up and running!<\/p>\n

I have a process to get started so that we can both learn enough about one another to make the best decision we could possibly make before we get started.<\/p>My process allows us to wade in, so to speak, and test the waters before we get in over our heads. It allows us to look past the initial 'getting to know you' phase and peek at what things might be like six, twelve, thirty months down the road.\u00a0 It helps us see beneath the reflective surface of the water and really look at not just what gifts we share out into the world, but how we share them.<\/p>
Here\u2019s how we get started:<\/p>
