Hi, I'm Claire, founder of The Virtual Vibe!I started my virtual assistant business because I wanted flexibility. I was working as a scientist, where the income was great but the freedom was non-existent, and I wanted it to change. I wanted to create a way that I could earn serious corporate level income without sacrificing being home with my 3 children.I jumped in to a network marketing business while I was on maternity leave. After a year, I built the business to be turning over 6 figures annually, and I was award-winning in my field. I was asked to train people globally, educating people on skills in networking, social media content, and sales.After an incredible 4 years, I was ready to create something on my own terms, using the skills and successful methods I'd developed. Through the world of virtual assistance, I was able to achieve this without being under the umbrella of another company.In less than a week and with just 5 followers, I got my first enquiry. In less than one month, I was fully booked out - all whilst running my business alongside family life.Other virtual assistants started reaching out to me asking how I'd built momentum in my business so quickly - I knew that the skills I'd developed and honed during the 4 years I'd worked in network marketing had given me an amazing foundation that was transferrable to any online business.From here I founded The Virtual Vibe, coaching and mentoring new and established virtual assistants on content, sales, and lead generation strategy. I love to show virtual assistants how they can provide successful, specialised businesses around their lives and families - without sacrificing income.
