There\'s no self‑employment experience required to be a virtual assistant and you can create a business that’s tailored specifically to your lifestyle and needs.

Why should you create your business with our VA programme?
We’ve helped hundreds of people change course and set up successful Virtual Assistant businesses, using their existing skills to build their own brand. You don’t need Personal Assistant (PA) experience.
We feel passionately that you should have choice and freedom when running your Virtual Assistant business so that you can make it your own. You choose your hours, you pick the work you do and, importantly, you decide which clients you want to work with.
There are so many benefits of running a VA business that’s 100 % yours – unlike a franchise model, we don’t charge hefty upfront fees or expect you to share a percentage of your ongoing income.
Our programme is low cost – just a few hundred pounds and packed full of value. If you consider that the average hourly rate for a VA in the UK is £30 and an average client might use you for 20 hours a month, you should get your initial investment back within just one month of working with your first client.
You’re probably wondering how you’ll get clients
We’ve been doing it since 2005 so we know what works and what doesn’t.
Getting clients is the main focus of our programme – we show you proven ways to get the right type of clients who’ll appreciate you, and who you’ll love working with.
So, what next if you think you have the makings of a great VA?
Our step‑by‑step FAB‑VA programme provides all the guidance and video support you need to build a successful VA business from scratch. The guesswork has been removed to save you both time and money – take a look at our website to see how others have found it.
The programme can fit around your current circumstances, and you can continue to work until you’ve started onboarding your own clients. Some people even choose to permanently run their VA business alongside a part‑time job.
