Here is the course syllabus:
Introduction: Turning Your Dreams Into Reality – An Honest Look at Starting a Virtual assistant Business
Lesson One: Be Brilliant at the Basics
Business planning is a skill that you need to learn when you run a virtual assistant business, because things are ever-changing and you need to be able to tweak and adjust as necessary in order to remain successful.
In this module we will put together your business plan and do some goal setting so that you can build your business model to suit your life and your lifestyle. Not everyone’s VA business is going to be the same, but we’ll give you some solid framework to build yours the way you want, and make sure that it will be a money making model for you.
Lesson Two: Balls in the Air
Getting and staying organized is a big part of virtual assistant work. When you work with more than one client, things can get busy very quickly. Priorities are important.
In this module, we will talk about how to manage work for multiple VA clients, how to collaborate online with them and how to keep it all organized so you maximize your non-billable time.
Lesson Three: Seriously, What Do You Do?
What services to offer clients can be a sticking point that stops many VAs in their tracks. The notion that you have to learn skills to become a VA is not something I believe in and that’s what I’ll teach you in this class! There are lots of clients that need what you know … right now.
In this module, we talk about starting with what you know – and you know a lot more than you think! We’ll decide what you can do best, and who you can do it for, as we cover your service offering and your targeted clients.
Lesson Four: Connections That Count
The online world can be a scary place when you’ve only sat at a desk before. Where do you go to find people? What do you say to them? Getting clients online is simple but taming the marketing piece of your business is challenging if you don’t know how to do it.
In this module, we talk about everything online. What you need, what you don’t need, and what to say. How to get your website up quickly and easily, where you need to be on social media. And what your marketing message should be saying so that people hear you.
Lesson Five: Virtual High Fives!
A whole module on finding Virtual Assistant clients! Why? Because it’s the hardest thing to do. But it doesn’t have to be! You just need to learn how to do it effectively.
In this module we will talk about your marketing message, and your strategy for networking and finding VA clients. We will learn about how to have a sales conversation and how to get people to work with you. It takes a strategy and goals, and now’s the time we put it all into action.
Lesson Six: Moving and Shaking
This week we put everything you have learned together and we go through your plans. We make sure you have all of the answers you need to start connecting with potential clients.
Lesson Seven: What Is Your Next Step?
This week we will review what you have learned and wrap up the program and send you on your way!
In addition to teaching you about each of these parts in detail, you will also receive templates for every part that you need … from your business plan, goal setting, website setup, content creation, all the way to your client contract, so you will have all the resources you need to plan your business and sign clients.

I highly recommend any training from Tracey D’Aviero. I did the full VA starter course when I was just starting out just 2 years ago and I wouldn’t be where I am today now without her. Don’t miss this opportunity! ~ Jude B
Tracey, I want to tell you how much I am enjoying your VA course. You’ve included so much helpful information and answered my questions already. While there are many VA sites out there yours is the most helpful to me and most professional. You deliver what you promise and I know that when you post of offer something it’s valuable. You emit class and trustworthiness and I look forward to continuing my training with you. – Theresa O
Every established VA should have taken a course like Tracey’s Getting Started course before we even registered our companies. We would have saved a lot of time, money and heartache. I feel that our pride in what we do is only surpassed by our willingness to promote and provide the highest quality of service. And I really feel that what Tracey is doing for new virtual assistants will carry our trade to the next level because the ones coming behind us will already be on first base. Kudos, Tracey! ~ Vickie M
Tracey’s Getting Started as a VA course was amazing! As a VA who had been in business for 6 months already when I took it, I really enjoyed getting back to basics and learned so much from Tracey! I was able to start implementing Tracey’s teachings right away to beef up my business foundation. I would definitely recommend this program to anyone starting out in their VA business. I just wish this had been around when I first started mine, it would have saved me a lot of trial and error, not to mention time! – Jennifer J
It’s been a number of years since I have been looking at the whole VA industry. I have been doing courses here, going to webinars, listening to this and that, but I have never really sat down and put things on paper the way you have instructed. Nobody showed me like you did how to sit down and write these things out. You have a direct, step-by-step plan from getting from A to B. And for that I am very thankful. – Beverly H
Your VA Mentor is a wonderful tool for all VAs! Not only does Tracey’s Getting Started course explain the step-by-step process to setting up a successful VA business but it’s practical and extremely helpful! Tracey is a great teacher and explains everything clearly and thoroughly! I highly recommend taking her course if you want to get your VA business off to a successful start! – Jenna N
Much thanks! It’s been an amazing experience!!! Love your coaching style! – Maryann L
Ditto to the comment about your coaching style. – Deborah J
Tracey, you are so knowledgeable – it inspires confidence in your wisdom and what you say. You teach with practicality and are direct in what is needed for me to achieve my goals. Thank you so much! – April M
Thanks, Tracey, for the very practical training that was jampacked with value! Lots to work on and revisit in the future. – Ulrike W
Tracey’s no BS, down-to-earth nature is what makes me recommend CAVA and any of her trainings to other VAs (well, that and she knows what she is talking about, and the value is great honestly). Tracey, you inspire me and have been since day 1! Thank you! – Wendy H
What’s my story and why should you want to learn from me?
I am Tracey D’Aviero. I began working from home in 1995. I studied catering management in college and offered consulting services to food and beverage establishments, and specialized in helping them with controllable costs. It was a great service, and I was able to work from home so that I could help as many businesses as I wanted, and still be close to home for my family.
I struggled with finding clients. I struggled with marketing my services. I struggled with getting paid.
It quickly became less fun than I expected. The paying clients were those who had the money to open restaurants (but there were not too many of those near my home, which meant I had to travel to earn money). The local clients didn’t think they needed the services I could provide … or worse … they didn’t think they could afford my services (and I clearly wasn’t showing them my value!).
After 8 years of trying to find my place, I did some soul-searching to figure out what to do with my business. I realized that I could use all of my knowledge and experience in administration, and simply find a better niche of clients to serve … and I did. In the process, I realized that this amazing Virtual Assistant industry existed … and that’s what I was!!
I started marketing my business as a VA business, hired business and marketing coaches to teach me what I needed to know about the online world and finding clients, I got very clear on my services and who I could best serve, and I haven’t looked back!
I learned these business and marketing skills ONCE, and I have continued to apply them to my changing business over the years. Let me teach you how to do the same thing for yourself.
Getting Started as a VA is just what I was looking for to get started as a Virtual Assistant. Tracey gives easy to follow, well thought-out lessons. I don’t know how she managed to pack so much material into just 8 weeks. Tracey’s knowledge, coupled with her easy-going – straight-forward personality made my decision to become a VA, a very easy one. I recommend this course to everyone who is just getting started in the business, and to anyone considering a career change. Thanks Tracey, you made it very easy for me to learn and I was always looking forward to the next class. I’m just sorry that it was only 8 weeks. – Jen S
Getting Started as a VA is the perfect program for new VAs just getting started, or thinking about starting a Virtual Assistant business. Tracey will save you countless hours and point you down the path to success right out of the gate. Your VA Mentor also provides an extra advantage to established VAs who have been in business a year or two, and just want to make sure they have a solid business foundation to grow from. Tracey has a natural gift for teaching and is so giving and willing to share her knowledge, and the real-world experience she has gained through years of running her own successful VA business. – Terri L
When we put together one of our high level training programs for our students, we knew that in order for our clients to grow their businesses, they need to really understand the importance of getting support in various ways. We asked Tracey (who was our own VA at the time) to teach the support and technical pieces of our program, and we are very glad that we did. Throughout the program, our clients got the information, resources and support from Tracey that they needed without feeling overwhelmed, and they were able to better understand that part of their businesses. Tracey is an easy going teacher and she shares her wealth of knowledge about being a virtual professional freely. – Paige and Brian S
