Common Questions
Frequently asked questions
No, you do not. Clients care about what you can do and how you can help them, not your degree. VA Mary starts with the absolute basics, helping you turn everyday skills and a willingness to learn into client-ready services.
It varies depending on your consistency and time commitment. Many students who complete the roadmap and actively apply outreach strategies secure their first client within 4 to 8 weeks after starting their proposals.
A functioning laptop or desktop computer and a stable internet connection are essential for remote VA work. While some social media tasks can be initiated on a phone, full client operations require a computer.
We focus on high-touch, relatable mentoring rather than just self-paced videos. You get real feedback on your portfolio, direct answers to your unique obstacles, and a community that acts as your accountability circle.
