Most of the time assistants tell me they can’t attend our conference for administrative assistants or training because of budget cuts or not getting financial support. Sometimes it really is a budget issue. Negotiate if necessary. I understand that perfectly as a business owner and CEO. Points to Consider 1. Why shouldn’t you?

The idea grows from a daydream into a goal. I lack the necessary detail-oriented skills to turn it into a reality. But there’s a big difference between that and having a budget, a packing list and an hour-by-hour breakdown of where we will be in the course of such a trip, all of which I need to make it executable as a side hustle.

I believe meeting planners and administrative professionals possess similar skills/traits that enable them to be good at what they do. They conveyed their needs to me; I found them the venues/destination that would best help them accomplish their goals and objectives. Most importantly, their attention to detail is second to none.

Or what is the goal you want to work towards? We are simply determining your base VA rate and monthly budget.

For the uninitiated, this may seem like a straightforward request until you start to ponder the type and style of venues you need to research, whether those venues will fit within the company’s budget, and… well, ‘what is our budget anyway?’ And that’s just for starters. Event Planning.

What is your budget? Usually a venue takes about 40% of your overall budget, if not more. This limits your negotiating power to compare pricing and use your own vendors. Their goal is to simplify the process of finding and booking space for meetings and events. Are there in house vendors we are required to use?

If training/travel aren’t an option it may be a goal to strive for as a reward for a job well done. Perhaps after some smart negotiating you can have it worked into the budget for future years.
