🛑 The Biggest Mistakes to Avoid When Hiring a Virtual Assistant

Hiring a VA can completely transform your business—but only if you avoid the most common pitfalls.

Here are the top mistakes businesses make when bringing on a VA (and how to avoid them):

🔹 Unclear Expectations
If you’re not clear on the role, your VA won’t be either.
👉 Solution: List out clear tasks, KPIs, and outcomes from day one.

🔹 No Onboarding Process
Even experienced VAs need context. Skipping this step leads to confusion.
👉 Solution: Create a simple onboarding plan with tools, logins, and processes.

🔹 Weak Delegation
Delegating without structure = chaos.
👉 Solution: Use tools like Asana or ClickUp. Set deadlines and task priorities.

🔹 Micromanaging (or Ghosting!)
Too much or too little communication both kill productivity.
👉 Solution: Weekly check-ins + async tools like Slack or Loom work wonders.

🔹 Hiring for Skills Only
Culture and communication matter just as much as experience.
👉 Solution: Do a culture fit check. Trial projects help too.

What’s your go-to karaoke song?

Steph: definitely love Taylor Swift songs!

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?

Steph: I just recently listened to this advice because as a parent or being a parent is not easy: "You are doing so much better than you think. Some days in parenting just suck. They are just hard. It's not because you are missing some magical solution or because you are failing. Sometimes, it's just hard. And.... you are capable. You can get through hard things. You are worthy of help and support. You are everything. You are home to your kids, and the way you show up matters." When I heard this advice, I felt warmth. I realized I'm not a failing mother. I'm a striving mother who wants the best for my children.
