I have been a Virtual Assistant since March of 2000, and even though I have always had clients, I really don't feel like I am making the income that I want. I am always on the computer, researching, updating, networking and actually doing client work...but it seems like if you took the billable time out...I'd be making peanuts per hour. I was making a really great income before I started this business, and although the income from it has allowed me to still have all the necessities...I am longing for some of the old extras that I used to have, like a Savings Account, investment account, late model car, etc...
So, I have been speaking with a couple of my mentors lately, asking them if they think that the income I desire is possible as a Virtual Office Assistant. They tell me it is. On of them says she has made a 6 figure income for the last several years, and another also tells me that she makes a 6 figure income.
It's possible. I am going to keep studying and working towards the goal...and within 2 years, I will be there...I hope.
What do you think? Can a Virtual Assistant really make a 6 figure income?
All the best~
