One skill many aspiring Virtual Assistants overlook?

⌨️ Typing speed.

It might seem like a small thing until you’re responding to customer enquiries, updating CRM records, taking meeting notes, managing inboxes, or handling live chats.

The faster and more accurately you type, the more efficiently you can work. And in a role where organization, communication, and responsiveness matter, that efficiency adds up.

Will typing speed alone get you hired? No.

But it can help you work faster, reduce errors, boost productivity, and make client-facing tasks much smoother.

That’s why we encourage our students to develop not just technical skills, but the practical habits that make remote professionals stand out.

Remote work success is often built on the little things people ignore.

How fast can you type? 👀

Availability is a positioning strategy.

And no, this doesn’t mean being online 24/7 or replying clients in 12 seconds 🥹

It means becoming someone clients can rely on consistently.

A proactive remote worker doesn’t just “wait for instructions.”

They:
📌 communicate updates before being chased
📌 anticipate possible issues early
📌 ask clear questions before starting
📌 prepare ahead instead of reacting last minute
📌 make collaboration feel easier, not heavier

That kind of reliability stands out fast.

Because in remote work, clients can’t physically see your effort every day.

So your:

* communication,
* responsiveness,
* organization,
* and consistency…

…become part of your professional reputation.

And honestly?

Many high-paying clients are not just looking for the “most talented” person.

They’re looking for someone who makes work feel smooth, safe, and dependable.

That’s positioning.

Not noise.
Not overworking.

Just becoming trusted enough that people feel confident keeping you in the room 🤎
