Do you crave...

... flexibility, a steady income, and a job you don't dread going to every morning? Of course, you have tried to find "work-from-home jobs" but nothing ever checks all the boxes, and there always seems to be a catch. You have played with the idea of starting your own thing but have no idea how to build up an online business, source clients or market yourself. ​ If you're still reading, I know you're yearning for something more but don't know how to get started. ​

Build a rock-solid foundation

Become a successful Virtual Assistant in 30 Days with this self-paced course.

Hi! I'm Debora.

I know what it’s like to spend every day at a job you hate. I know that you love staying home with your kids but still wish you could have a career while doing so. What if I told you that you could make money on your own terms and from wherever you please? I heard about Virtual Assistants and, honestly, thought it all sounded too good to be true. A flexible schedule, working with people that are passionate about what they do, and a sheer endless amount of opportunities to make as much money as I want to, all on my terms? There's no way. Well, there was. So, I learned all about how to become a VA, created a website, pitched clients like a mad woman, landed my first client, and eight months later, quit my job and became a full-time Virtual Assistant. ​With my first client, I was making 3x as much money as I was at my corporate job and two years in, I hit my first 6-figure year. It might sound cliche, but if I can do it, so can you!

Testimonials

Maybe You're like Lena who needed to get out of her previous job and are looking for what's next... Or maybe you're like Stephanie who just had her first baby and wished to stay home without giving up work...

“Debora is absolutely great! I was really struggling with my previous job, but didn’t know where to go if I decided to leave. Debora listened to my struggles, and recognized that becoming a Virtual Assistant would be perfect for me. She pinpointed my strengths and gave me the tools and advice to capitalize on them for my own VA journey. I’m extremely excited to see where my journey will take me, I wouldn’t be where I am today without her continued support!”

Lena Marie, Wisconsin, US

“Debora is super knowledgeable in all things VA. For someone looking at getting started in the industry, she was really helpful and informative!”

Don't freak out!

Do you feel like you don't know enough, don't have enough money to start a business, or not much time?

  • Low Investment

    This is one of the most low-investment businesses to start. All you need is the foundation this course will provide you with, a working laptop, a cellphone, and the willingness to learn new things. 

  • No Experience Needed

    No problem. You don't need ANY experience to get started. I'll guide you the whole way from setting up your website to pitching and landing your first client. Together we'll build a solid foundation for a successful online business.

  • Self-Paced

    This self-paced course can be done in your time, and on your schedule. You decide how much time you want to put into it. There will be manageable action steps after each lesson and I'm always here if you have questions or get stuck.

Are You a Mom or Mom-To-Be?

Then this one's for you.

I'm most often approached by women who just had a baby or are planning on starting a family in the near future. They want to stay home with their newborns, see their kids through kindergarten and school while being present, without having to sacrifice their career. If this is you, becoming a Virtual Assistant will be your saving grace. You will have time to drop off your kids in the morning, attend their school plays, stay home with them when they're sick, and have dinner with them - because YOU are in charge of your schedule. Since starting my VA business, I was able to take five weeks off without getting anyone's permission. I was able to move across the country and take my work with me. I took a workation, just to get a change of scenery while working with my clients. I get to be home with my pets, take naps, cook my own meals, escape office drama, and explore all the coffee shops in the area while making money.

FAQ

  • Can I take this course if I live outside of the United States?

    Absolutely! This course is designed for any Vitual Assistant to be in any country! Just note that in the last section where we discuss taxes and accounting, I will speak about my experience here within the United States. Things will most likely be different in your native country so you will have to look into the exact rules. But the rest of the course will be applicable to anyone who wants to become a VA.

  • Can I take this course even if I already started my business?

    Yes, 100%! Maybe you started an online business but just can't seem to get traction, are unsure of how to pitch, how to set up your website... or have simply lost steam halfway through and need a push. You can take this course even if you're in the middle of the process. There may be some things you already know or have already done, but I assure you you will take away great value nonetheless from The Wednesday Project.

  • I don't want to be a full-time Virtual Assistant, is this course still for me?

    Most people start out part-time. Even if you never plan to go full-time, this course will be a fantastic fit for you. You may want to stay home with your children and still work part-time without leaving the house or make some extra money on the side. Taking The Wednesday Project course and becoming a Virtual Assistant will be the perfect opportunity for you to do this.

  • Can't I just google how to be a Virtual Assistant and save money?

    You could, yes. There are tons of articles of "5 tips to becoming a Virtual Assisstant" and people offering free advice. One of the problems with that is, however, that you often don't know who is giving the advice and what their experience looks like. I was a full-time Virtual Assistant for four years before creating this course, gaining tons of first-hand experience and knowledge. Oftentimes people online will give you tidbits of how to do one thing or another, but you will not find how to build a solid foundation (that is sustainable) for your business for free.

  • Will I get 1:1 support within The Wednesday Project?

    You sure will! By purchasing this course you will get two 1:1 coaching sessions with me while you're working your way through the course where we can address your questions and struggles. You will be able to schedule the 30-minute call in your own time, whenever you need it (even if you just need a pep-talk, I got you!)

  • Will I have lifetime access to the course material?

    Absolutely! There is no subscription that needs to be renewed each year or month. You purchase the course once and have lifetime access to it. I will keep you informed about any additional course material that can be purchased in the future.

  • What if I don't land a client within 30 days?

    Don't despair! It took me 90 days after pitching until I landed my first client but then they just kept coming from there. I know people who landed a client right away. It can happen either way. But you WILL land a client. And you know how I know that? Because virtual assisting is the future. More and more companies are hiring VAs instead of in-office assistants, and your perfect client will come along sooner than you think! This is the perfect time to start!

  • How is this course different than others?

    The first big difference is that I'm not selling you a 'quick fix'. I'm not promising you $1000 a month by doing absolutely nothing. Starting a business from scratch is work. I am promising you a sustainable way of making money that will last you well into the future. The second thing is the fact that I value self-care and believe that you can't be successful long-term if you don't take care of yourself first. So I'm including a self-care tip, book, and podcast suggestions in each module. And, thirdly, while other courses show you how to set up the business and how to pitch and then leave you to figure things out from there, The Wednesday Project is staying with you and tells you how to work 'with' clients, teaching best-practices, what to do if things don't work out, and how to ask for a raise further down the road.

  • Honestly, I'm scared to take the first step and make the investment.

    I get that. It's such a big step and no immediate return. When I first started my VA business, I kept thinking: What if I'm putting all this work into this website, creating my services, and pitching clients and nothing ever comes of it? That will have been a complete waste of time. Obviously something came of it and it will for you, too. Virtual Assisting is the future of our workforce and so many small (and large) businesses are hiring freelancers instead of in-office staff for their various needs. You have a unique skillset that is needed by clients that are out there waiting for you. Taking the first step is hard, but I promise you, you will be on fire once you realize that you're now a business owner and your own boss.
