Are you really a fully-fledged virtual assistant unless you’ve received a “I’ve been ghosted 👻" badge?
If being ghosted by a lead, client (or yes, even team member!) hasn’t happened yet, in the words of Alexander Hamilton … “Just you wait” 🤪
Being ghosted can often trigger VAs into a spiral of self doubt. It’s common for the VA to take it personally, question everything and make some massive assumptions.
Having been there, done that, and got the 👻 badge more often than we'd like to admit, we can confidently tell you to stop second-guessing and blaming yourself, and start putting some very simple steps in place to prevent it from happening again.
Disclaimer: The ghost prevention strategies mentioned in this episode work 97% of the time. The remaining 3% can’t be helped ‘cos they're Dicks ghosting you whose dick-ness can't be helped😉.
You’ll learn:
- The 5 most common reasons VAs get ghosted and the steps you can take to prevent it from happening.
- Why ‘Quick Wins’ and ‘Nice To Dos’ need to be part of your client onboarding process.
- What to say in your discovery call that makes following them up post-Proposal soooooo much easier.
