    As a leasing agent, I was shocked when I realized there was such a demand for my skills virtually. I'm now fascinated with the idea of starting my own VA business to create freedom, and financial prosperity.

    I've been a VA before and am interested in possibly doing it again. However, I'd like it to be an asyncronous VA business. I don't want to be on call or take calls from customers...basically don't want to be tied to a phone or desk or certain hours. I'd like to have projects and tasks to work on on my own schedule. (i.e., 8pm - 1am at night if I wanted to) or 5am-8am...etc. Does anyone do anything like that? If so...what does it look like for you?

    Yeah i can totally understand that im also in Aprising VA . Even i dont want to be tied down to a phone or doing emails. I would suggest to learn a new skill a high paying skill, like Video Editing, Web development and so on. Just try to find something you like to offer as a skill.

    I would think people learn A LOT of skills in non-corporate jobs too...like logistics and customer service. Those skills could definitely translate into a VA business.
