#015 – What Do I Charge??
Podcast: Play in new window | Download
One of the biggest issues facing new VAs – and in fact I guess even an issue that comes up from time to time for existing VAs and anyone in business – is what do I charge? New VAs usually start out by doing a bit of market research, checking out what other VAs are charging and then go from there. But there are a few key things to bear in mind that will impact on the rate you charge.
Dear Lyn,
Many thanks for this highly useful podcast. As a new VA, I appreciate your taking the time to help us approach this elusive issue.
Have a lovely Christmas!

Lyn,
This is such a common sense approach to determining the rate to charge. I’ve been working as a VA for a couple of years for another VA service, but only started out on my own in April, so determining what to charge has been a real struggle. Thank you for this informative podcast. I’m going back to listen to the one you did on getting clients!
