Connecting Virtual Assistants
with Local VA Groups
Australian VA Community Directory
During the Virtual Assistant Lead Network’s insightful and engaging webinar, The Power of Connection, with the wonderful Michelle Broadbent, it became clear that many Australian Virtual Assistants in our network were keen to connect with other VAs who live near them.
Fiona Campbell and Jane Ekholm wasted no time and immediately collaborated to create this free Australian VA Community Directory to help you find your local tribe of virtual assistants.
Connect with other local virtual assistants to support each other in tackling problems within your virtual businesses, collaborate to leverage each other’s unique skills, and find a buddy to attend networking events relevant to your ideal clients.
…And don’t forget to tee up a face-to-face to celebrate each other on International Virtual Assistants Day (occurring on the third Friday in May each year)!
If you can’t find a local VA group, consider starting your own and listing it below in the Australian VA Community Directory to encourage other local virtual assistants to join!
