A standalone course

Hire & train
your own VA.

The single highest-leverage hire a local business owner makes is the one that takes the office off your plate. This course is the full system: find, interview, onboard, and hand off, drawn from running the first virtual staffing agency for home services.

For eight years I ran a virtual assistant agency that fully managed the daily operations of dozens of local businesses, several of them seven figures, to the point where the owners became largely absentee. This course is that agency’s playbook, turned around: instead of renting a trained VA, you learn to hire and train your own.

It matters because the office, not the field work, is what keeps owners chained: the phones, the scheduling, the follow-up, the small daily fires. Hand that off well and the business starts to run without you. Hand it off badly and you’ll conclude, wrongly, that delegation doesn’t work.

What you’ll learn

The handoff,
in six steps

01

Decide what goes first.

The priority outline: which office tasks to hand off, in which order, and which to keep for now. Booking, scheduling, customer follow-up, daily admin.

02

Find real candidates.

Where to source VAs who can handle live phones and real customers, what to pay, and the filters that save you from ninety percent of bad hires before an interview.

03

Interview for the job, not the resume.

The scripts and test tasks we used at the agency: live call simulation, written-response tests, and the traits that actually predict success.

04

Onboard with documents, not hope.

The training sequence, the daily-tasks outline, and the standard responses library your VA works from on day one.

05

Manage by checklist and metric.

The daily workflow, the numbers to watch weekly, and how to give feedback across time zones without micromanaging.

06

Become optional.

Escalation rules, decision boundaries, and the trust ladder that ends with your VA running the office and you checking a dashboard.

From the agency years

What owners say when
the office leaves the house

This course is the same system Inova Local used to train hundreds of VAs for real companies. The owners noticed.

“I outsourced my phones and email. Pretty sure I have the best VA they have to offer — Tracy is an absolute rock star.”

Michael Crist · runs his company in 30 min/week

“You are the first VA we’ve worked with who has managed to get this under control. I told Jim I was so happy I could cry.”

Brittany Perry · written to her VA, home from two weeks abroad

“If one of my VAs is sick, it takes minutes for someone to take over. Now I can really focus on the big picture.”

Julie Texane Lesage · four offices across four states
