VAs / VBOs
Welcome to Australia's only network of prequalified Virtual Business Operators and Virtual Assistants!
Owning your own successful practice is hard. It takes more than just technical skills. Membership of AVBN can help you attract new clients, grow your business and show more profits. You'll have access to motivated and discerning clients who want to partner with the best VBO/VA.
Do you qualify? Complete our form to find out! We expect basic criteria to be met by our members including minimum number of years in practice, previous experience and exceptional client service standards, as well as a commitment to ongoing training and education, and industry certification*.
As a member, you'll receive:
- A listing on our exclusive members only directory
- Membership of our email discussion group
- Partnership with motivated clients - not just leads
- Reduced rate access to our quarterly webinars
Annual membership fee: $100
Once you fill in the application form, we will be in touch within 48 hours to acknowledge receipt. Reference checks take a little longer and you will be advised of the progress of your membership application. Membership fees will be payable on receipt of an invoice and payment options will be included on the invoice. Note that payment options include direct credit to our account or payment by cheque (however, membership will not become effective until cheque clearance).
New to the industry? If you're new to virtual business and don't qualify for membership of AVBN just yet you can still join the network (and email discussion group) to access the wealth of knowledge our members will be able to share. Think of it as free mentoring! You'll also have access to our quarterly webinars (fee involved) and we'll include sessions on business start up and what you need to know to operate a successful practice. Join now by filling in the same prequalification form but check the box that you're a newbie! For newbies it's free.
*Our application process is so stringent and in accordance with the core competencies for virtual assistants that if you meet our criteria you will qualify for our CAVB (Certified Australian Virtual Business) designation.
(Note: If you do not have a Yahoo ID you will need to create a free account.)
