In this episode of Booked Out with Bre, I'm so excited to bring you our latest VA Spotlight Series featuring the incredible Malai Chellios! Malai's journey is a powerful story of making bold moves – I'm talking packing up her family and moving from Illinois to Florida, knowing it would mean a pay cut. Faced with the need to bring in income but wanting to stay home with her three kids (including a newborn!), Malai decided to invest in herself and dive into the virtual assistant world. And you guys, she didn't just dip her toes in – she went all in! By following a step-by-step process, Malai booked out her VA business within just a couple of months. Here’s what you’ll hear from Malai: How a bold family move became the catalyst for starting her own business. The step-by-step process she followed to land her first client within days of applying for jobs. Her unique and powerful strategy for landing high-value local clients through in-person networking. How she transitioned from a booked-out VA to launching her own successful agency, Simply Solved. The ripple effect of her success, leading to two more new business ventures with her husband! Her core message for anyone thinking of starting: "Just do it!" Malai's story is proof that when you believe in yourself and take consistent, bold action, anything is possible. If you're looking for a dose of "just do it" energy and a unique perspective on client attraction, you need to hear this!
