“In 2015, the influencer industry was a half a billion dollar industry,” says Aliza Freud; “This year it’s projected to be close to $25 billion.” As the founder and CEO of SheSpeaks, a global community of female influencers, Freud connects brands with the social media entrepreneurs who can help them amplify their message. “I think it’s giving women a huge opportunity,” she tells CoveyClub founder Lesley Jane Seymour. In fact, in a recent study her company spotted a rising trend of women embracing social media entrepreneurship as a side hustle. In women between the ages of 45 and 54, 30% said they already have a side hustle while 22% said they plan to start one.

“Most people think that if somebody from the Philippines is marrying an American, maybe she only wants money,” observed Filipino-born Kristy Yoder. “I’m a living testimony that it’s not true…I hired my husband full-time.” When Yoder first moved to the United States she began working as a freelance virtual assistant in the hopes that entrepreneurship would allow her to spend more time with her loved ones. Yet, like so many of us, she soon experienced the overwhelm of being a one-woman show. After hiring a VA of her own she was able to increase her business tenfold, developing her own agency of virtual assistance based in the Philippines. Moving into a CEO position, Yoder was able to devote more time to her family and other creative pursuits, like hosting the Master Delegator podcast. In this fun and insightful conversation with CoveyClub founder Lesley Jane Seymour she shares her best tips for finding the right VA to support you, the documents you’ll want to prepare when hiring a freelancer, and the first tasks you should focus on delegating to get the most out of your VA.
