"Best decision I have made"

Having just graduated from Amanda’s VA Training Course I can confidently say it was the best decision I made when setting up my business. Amanda’s no-nonsense, yet nurturing approach is perfect for those of us setting out who are new to the world of self-employment and unsure on how to go about running a business. Amanda has been instrumental in helping me move away from the ’employee’ mindset and I can already see a definite shift in how I think and approach my VA business. I can confidently say that that would not be the case had I not had the course, the Facebook group and all the associated support Amanda offers. And that’s before we even get to the practical tools included in the course! I would recommend Amanda to anyone thinking about becoming a VA – she’s amazing!

"I don't ever expect to leave!"

I love Amanda!
My fledgling business has benefitted immensely from her wise words and not-so-gentle persuading. Amanda is honest, supportive and an overall lovely person to work with. The membership is teaming with useful webinars and activities to get set up in the VA world.
I don’t ever expect to leave Amanda’s coaching group!
Thanks Amanda, you’re ace.

Amanda's membership is absolutely amazing!

“I’d seen the value and help that she gave in her free group, so when I came across her membership, I knew it would be awesome. The membership provides me with so many resources, training courses and so much more. The FB group that goes with it, is such a supportive community where it’s safe to ask questions and discuss any problems. Amanda is a lovely lady, she is straight talking & no messing, I don’t know where I would be without this membership group. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is a VA.”

now, I know what you are thinking...

“Amanda, how the heck do I actually make this happen?” 

Well, I’m here to tell you that it’s not as hard as you might think. But here’s the catch – I’m not going to sugarcoat it or stroke your ego.  My advice is 100% honest, direct, practical, straight-talking, and bullshit free!

Ready to dive in?  Yes.  Awesome!

I was recommended to join Amanda at VACT from several VAs – so that was a good start! And my experience since making that decision and signing up for the full membership has only got better. Amanda is always available to support, whatever the question or concern. And the VA course is fantastic and takes you through every possible element of starting up a VA business. Yes you need to commit to spend the time on each module – but, in my opinion, as a new business owner, what you put in is what you get out. I have gone from really really scared at the start of my move from employee to business owner, to be so excited and raring to go with my business in the New Year. Thank you so much, Amanda.

I cannot recommend Amanda highly enough! She has been a truly supportive and insightful mentor throughout my VA journey. She’s kind, caring, and always gets straight to the point, offering advice that is both practical and encouraging. I’m not just doing tasks anymore—I now have a strategic plan, along with backup plans in place. Every group session, email, or one-to-one meeting leaves me feeling more confident and equipped to tackle the challenges in my business. Her guidance has been a game-changer, completely transforming how I approach my VA work. For anyone considering a career as a Virtual Assistant, this course is an absolute must!

Jemma Millard

I had a fantastic Laser Coaching Call with Amanda and she offered me and my business some amazing invaluable expert advice – highly recommend.

Rebecca Warriner

I’ve been following Amanda for a couple of years now, and her group is fantastic! We had a telephone call in the past, but it was great to have a Teams meeting with her. She gave me plenty of suggestions to help me grow my business.

Sarah Mansell

Amanda was really down to earth, honest and informative. A lot of coaches/trainers I have come across in recent years see potential students as nothing more than pound signs and I didn’t get that vibe at all from Amanda.

Cheryl Barton

I had a free discovery call with Amanda and found it so helpful in clarifying my idea and direction as I was getting everything together to set up my VA business. She also followed up via email after the session with some really useful pointers and suggestions, and went far above what I was expecting in terms of delivery!

Jennie Rawling

I have just completed the VACT VA Momentum Course, this comprehensive programme has provided me with invaluable skills and knowledge to excel as a professional virtual assistant. I want to express my sincere gratitude to Amanda Johnson for her support, guidance, and incredible mentorship throughout this journey. Amanda’s extensive expertise and passion for the industry have been instrumental in raising the professional standards within the virtual assistant sector. The VA Momentum Course has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of the virtual assistant role, client management, productivity tools, and best practices for delivering exceptional service. Amanda has created such an amazing community, fostering the development of highly skilled virtual professionals.

Alison Shaw – VA Momentum Course

I knew I needed guidance to take my business to the next level but what I didn’t expect during my Power Hour with Amanda was how many ‘lightbulb’ moments I was going to have – and there were many. Amanda gave honest feedback, a structured pathway, achievable goals and most importantly was warm and friendly enough that I could confide my fears. I will certainly be having another Power Hour with Amanda if not only to share the successes achieved from her advice!!

Genuine Reviews

Virtual Assistants, Lead VAs with Small Teams, VA Agencies, Online Business Managers and Virtual Business Consultants, Virtual Assistant Trainers and Mentors – I have supported in the region of 2000 of them during my time.  From solo entrepreneurs to those with a small team, who then go on to having a large team – I have loved supporting each and every one of them.

Why?  Well they have shown up, done the work, got the results for both their business and their personal life.  At times the journey has been a little challenging and between us we have gone through the ups and the downs!  But that’s business and part of the fun of the entrepreneurial journey!

I don’t know about you but when I see reviews I like to see the name / website of who has left the review, so I am sharing here links to our reviews via Trust Index and Google, but I would encourage you to check out our Facebook and LinkedIn reviews too.  (Especially as we have lots to pull through to this site!)
