Even Assistants Need Assistance
Case Study
Megan Sawtelle AK Lean Virtual Assistance, LLC
Owning and operating a successful virtual assistant and automation company requires a lot of skills. However, the money aspect can be a cause of anxiety for many people. This was especially true of Megan Sawtelle, owner of AK Lean Virtual Assistance, LLC.
Money Mess
While Megan was confident in the running of her business, she was not as confident when it came to understanding how profitable it was. She had no idea how much her services were costing her to offer, and because of this, she felt like she was not making business decisions based on facts.
Peeking Behind The curtain
In order to better understand the financial aspects of her business, Megan was going to need help. She was going to have to let go of the fear she had about someone else looking at her books.
However, she didn’t know where to turn especially since she was very critical about which virtual assistants she worked with. That’s where Lisa at Full of Grace Virtual Assistants stepped in. Lisa was able to open Megan’s eyes to the power of numbers. Lisa provided not only an understanding of the company’s books but also honest and gentle recommendations for improvement. Her reports gave Megan the exact information she was looking for.
Growing Money and Growing People
Looking at the books with Lisa helped Megan to know what the highest revenue-earning services are in her company and which are most profitable. This knowledge gave Megan a critical component of her growth as a leader. From now on, Megan can move forward in her business not only leaving behind her fear of numbers but also being able to use what was once a fear as a tool for her own growth!
