Smart Simple Marketing Case Study: Virtual Assistant Goes from New Business to Almost Booked Solid in 6 Months!
Joanne Lehmkuhl was an experienced executive assistant who worked in corporate America for over 16 years. In the Fall of 2009, she got the itch to start her own business and wanted to find something that would be successful without reinventing the wheel. After doing some research about Virtual Assistants and connecting with a few in her area, she found Sydni Craig-Hart’s services and realized it was just what she needed to help her launch her own virtual assistant business.
Since Joanne was brand new to the world of self-employment, she needed help from the ground up. There were a number of different challenges that Joanne faced simply because she was a new entrepreneur.
“I needed to exit my full-time job, and I needed to do it gracefully,” said Joanne, “Because I worked with Sydni early on in my entrepreneurial career, she helped me hold onto those important contacts as I left corporate America.”
Sydni’s coaching helped Joanne put together a soup to nuts list of tasks and steps that needed to be completed to give Joanne’s business a good start.
“My business is light years ahead of where it would be without Sydni.”
“Sydni taught me about so much,” said Joanne, “She was very clear about what the results would be and I was impressed by her website and her message. I thought we’d really click – and we did!”
“Sydni is some who can get you quick results,” Joanne continued, “She genuinely cares about your business, and that makes all of the difference.”
Joanne appreciated having someone on her side to help her stay motivated and accountable. “She reliable and says what she’s going to do,” said Joanne, “which helped keep me more motivated as well.”
After just six months in business, Joanne has added one new client a month under Sydni’s coaching. “It’s been amazing – just six months into business and my client list is already 2/3 of the way full and I’m earning thousands of dollars in income each month!” says Joanne, “If you’re willing to put in the work and take action on her advice, you can expect lightning-quick results from her coaching.”
