On today's episode I have a surprise guest with us. Her name is Tasha Booth from TashaB Solutions. She is an Online Business Manager including a Pinterest Virtual Assistant and Business Strategist. She helps online businesses, authors and bloggers with the back ends of their businesses like digital marketing and any kind of technology needs around Wordpress and SquareSpace. Pinterest Virtual Assistant + Online Business Manager She helps online businesses set up and grow their Pinterest accountants to drive traffic to their sites. She has a team of five subcontractors to include; * Graphic designer * Video Editor * Social Media Manager * Facebook Ad Specialist She has a lot of fun helping her clients. She loves the fact that she gets to learn something new every day. She enjoys seeing progress in her client's business and enjoys helping people and seeing their business grow knowing that she and her team are a pat of that dynamic. As a Pinterest Virtual Assistant she has clients in 6 different countries and all of the work is done online. She is based in the US and she has clients in 10 different states. She is focused on curating a relationship with each and every client. They all have her phone number, her email address and they know that she is okay with them contacting her via these methods. It helps them to get to know her better so that she can serve their business more efficiently. She started out almost by accident as she was already a blogger and pretty comfortable with Pinterest and Social Media Marketing when she saw many businesses looking for Pinterest Virtual Assistants. Since she had existing student loans to clear she decided to do this part time and her business grew and grew to the point where a few months ago she needed to quit her job and do her business full time. Her Mother has been and continues to be her role model and biggest fan. She has always trusted Tasha, advised her to go with her heart and to trust herself. Her Mother has always given her permission to just jump and do things without feeling like if she has the wrong answer. The Best Advice The best advice that Tasha has received to date in business is to create standard operating procedures before she thinks she needs them for her Pinterest Virtual Assistant business. One key reason for this is to increase efficiencies around how things are done and to reduce bottlenecks in workflows. Her Mother has always said to whom much is given much is required so she always tries to find ways to give back, to help others who are not yet at the point of success where she is presently. Having her business has helped her to do just that and to be a mentor for others. She mentors via one on one coaching, she also help other people who have just started on the Pinterest Virtual Assistant path and they are looking for advice on how to improve their craft. People also request her assistance via social media. One Thing Impacted Her Life to Date She was married to an amazing guy for a little over 10 years. He was amazing but they were not amazing for each other. "You're great, I'm great but we're not great together". It was so hard but it was a turning point for her where her life didn't have to look like anybody else's neither did she have to validate her choices with anybody else. She can steer her boat a different way if she knows deep down that it is not going the way that it should. Freeing herself to say that this is not what it should be and freeing him to be okay with this decision was a huge for both of them. When is Best to Take the Leap Tasha decided that it was time to take the leap when the income from her side hustle, Pinterest Virtual Assistant, outpaced the income from her corporate job.
