From the little research that exists, the average North American virtual assistant earns between $35-50 per hour.
This is going to depend on your experience, skill-set, and areas of expertise.
The more specialized your services and the more experience you have, the more you can charge.
I’ve seen people in our community charge as little as $15 per hour and others earn more than $100 per hour (including myself). Ultimately it comes down to being really good at what you do and finding clients that value what you’re offering them.
How quickly you start earning honestly depends on how quickly (and frequently) you start putting yourself out there for hire.
In my opinion, contracting and working virtually is the way of the future.
People (clients and virtual assistants alike) crave increased flexibility. And what better way to obtain it than to build a business and/or team virtually?
Clients (typically small business owners, entrepreneurs, etc.) aren’t always looking to manage people or take on full-time help. Instead, they’d like to contract out for specific services they need help with. It makes it a win/win for both parties!
This gives you the opportunity to charge per job and not per hour, which can give you a much higher profit.
Are you ready to become a virtual assistant?
Invest in your future today! Don’t listen to people that tell you that you can’t have it all:
A happy life
A business that gives you money but also…
Time for yourself to do what you want
You just need to believe in yourself and start working for you!
