  • 84. The Secret Language of High-Value Clients: How to Attract Dream VA Gigs & Get Paid What You're Worth!
    2025/06/16
    In this episode of Booked Out with Bre, I'm spilling the tea on how to attract and book high-value virtual assistant clients – the ones who truly value your expertise, don't haggle on rates, and become long-term partners! This is the pre-party to my upcoming 3-day program, 1% VA, and trust me, it's juicy! I'm sharing a recent "aha!" moment from my VA agency where multiple powerhouse clients, back-to-back, described the exact same qualities they look for in a VA. It's not just about tasks; it's about speaking their language – the language of outcomes, ROI, and strategic growth. Here’s what you’ll learn: The critical difference between "task language" (what most VAs use) and "outcome language" (what high-value clients actually want to hear). How to shift your mindset and own your expertise, even if you're new to the VA world. My "executive terminology" swaps: simple word changes that instantly elevate your perceived value (e.g., "optimize" instead of "organize"). The power of positioning: how to present yourself as a strategic partner, not just an order-taker. A 3-step messaging makeover framework to transform how you talk about your services and attract dream clients. Why vision painting and tapping into your clients' emotions is more effective than just listing tasks. A loving "love and shove" to upgrade your portfolio and services today. If you're tired of attracting clients who undervalue your work or are ready to step into your power as a 1% VA who commands premium rates, this episode is your permission slip to go bigger. Let's dive into the secret language of high-value clients!

Inspiring stories from VAs like Nicole (10K/month in retainers in her first week!) and Jill (booked 2 clients in 48 hours!). My actionable tips to position yourself powerfully: focusing on outcomes, creating a unique brand voice, and leveraging your existing experience (you're already an expert!).

  • 78. Mexico Poolside to $100k Months: Bre & Chandler Lee on Unhinged Authority, VA Success & Business Growth
    2025/04/23
    In this episode of Booked Out with Bre, things get extra fun because I'm chatting with my amazing friend, Chandler Lee! You might know her from her own incredible online space, but our story goes way back to a chance meeting by the pool in Mexico in 2019 – before either of us had the businesses we have today! This conversation is JUICY. We spill the tea on our journeys from direct sales and corporate careers to building our own successful online businesses (hello, $100k cash months!). We talk about the mindset shifts, the "delusional conviction," and the power of just going all in on your dreams, even when others doubt you. Here’s what you’ll hear me and Chandler dive into: Our hilarious "how we met" story in Mexico! My journey from $70 months to $100k cash months in just 13 months (and how the VA industry was the catalyst!). Chandler's path from Beachbody and network marketing to becoming a sought-after content and business coach. The real talk about navigating spousal support (or lack thereof) when chasing big goals. Why "unhinged" might be the new "authority" when it comes to content that connects. Actionable tips for creating content easily (my voice messaging hack!). The importance of documenting your journey and embracing "Eras Content." Why investing in yourself (mentorship and self-trust) is crucial, but needs discernment. A sneak peek into what's next for both of us – including my book and first live event, and Chandler's mastermind!
