You've likely heard my story before, or a version of it at least. I was burning the candle from both ends, grinding it out in a job that didn't quite light my heart on fire. I knew there was more to life than busting it for a glass ceiling.
Fast forward to now and I get to help female entrepreneurs grow and scale their businesses, working from home in my pajamas!
Did I mention I did this in a matter of four weeks? And with no website, no social media, just a firey passion and determination to succeed!
It All Began With a Day Dream.
I'm Amanda
Rush Holmes
Hey There!
I'm a southern mama, virtual assistant, educator, and lifestyle blogger with some big-city type dreams.
Living proof that all you need to succeed is good dry shampoo, a love for coffee and some serious grit.
That the little girl who had her own babysitting business before she could even drive would grow up to be an entrepreneur.
My superpower is helping women do exactly what I do. Take their strengths and skillset and turn that into a business that gives them more freedom than they ever thought possible.
I BELIEVE IN:
Straight talk, strong drinks, short emails, data, and cutting out the 'meh' to make room for the very best.
My Best Biz Advice
Tell me what you're jealous of and I'll tell you what you should be doing.
YOU CAN FIND ME:
Chasing my sweet baby around, Blogging about my latest finds, Giving business advice over on IG, Making dinner with my husband and busting a move in my kitchen!
daily rituals
Iced Coffee, Evening Walks, Mama and B dance sessions, sneaking kisses from my husband, voice texting with THE BEST clients and serving up the best possible content for YOU!
I should have known...
Being a Virtual Assistant is more than helping someone manage their inbox. It's understanding your client, and their business completely. It's being able to anticipate their needs, hit deadlines, and create content that converts for their audience. It's becoming that person that is invaluable to them. So much that they RAVE about you to all their friends.
