Sure, you may be making money because your clients are paying you, but are you keeping as much money as you should be?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Profitability isn\u2019t usually something that comes to mind when you are operating a service-based business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We always say we trade our time for dollars. And we do, as Virtual Assistants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you are charging by the hour, by the task, by retainer or by the project, you are still doing work in return for money. Our rates are all based on how long it takes us to get something done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So we don\u2019t think of our business in terms of profit. But we should! Your business should be profitable, like any other business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-neve-link-color-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Mike Michalowicz said, <em>\u201cA lack of profitability is consistently the major reason cited for business discontinuation.\u201d<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Meaning that businesses cease to exist because they are not turning a profit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Is all of the money that is coming in to your business, going back out again?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If so, you may want to have a look at how you can increase your profitability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"628\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yourvamentor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/YVAM-Is-Biz-Profitable.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.yourvamentor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/YVAM-Is-Biz-Profitable.png 1200w, https:\/\/www.yourvamentor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/YVAM-Is-Biz-Profitable-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/www.yourvamentor.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/YVAM-Is-Biz-Profitable-768x402.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Manage your expenses<\/li><li>Focus on productivity<\/li><li>Increase your efficiency<\/li><li>Work with only your best clients<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Four simple steps that &#8211; when you pay attention to them and manage them properly &#8211; can make a big difference to your bottom line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-neve-link-color-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Manage Your Expenses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If everything that is coming in is going right back out again (including paying yourself), then it\u2019s time to assess what you are paying out. Look at each of the expenses you have for your business and assess whether it\u2019s necessary, whether it\u2019s priced properly for your business, and whether there is an alternative that might be better suited for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of what you are paying yourself, are you paying your expenses and then just taking the rest for you? This is also not a good way to run your business. Pay yourself a set amount each month. You should be building reserves in your business so that you can grow when needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-neve-link-color-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Focus on Productivity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The quickest way to bring in more revenue in your business is, well\u2026 to get busier. Do you have room for more clients? Look at how you work and what you accomplish each week. Are you working productively enough or could you use a bit more structure and focus to fit more tasks in?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Productivity is key to revenue growth in a service based business, and VAs are no exception. Time is money \u2013 so the more productive you can be, the more money you will bill to clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-neve-link-color-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Increase Your Efficiency<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you managing each task you do in the most efficient way you can? Sometimes we form habits around the way we do certain things, and disregard procedures, which can make tasks take longer than they should. It\u2019s a good exercise to analyze your work habits on a regular basis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes there are ways to automate steps. Sometimes we just need a proper process that we follow religiously. Whatever your business needs, get it implemented. When you perform better today, you make more profit today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-neve-link-color-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Work With Your Best Clients <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We all have those clients that drive us up the wall. Maybe it\u2019s your first client, or maybe it\u2019s your biggest client. But when you work with them, it takes more energy, maybe more time, and usually means that we make less profit from that client. Wouldn\u2019t it be great to have only amazing clients?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s your job \u2013 as CEO of your VA business, you need to make sure that the clients you work with are the best ones. The ones that understand your value, that work with you, that communicate well with you. The ones that help you work efficiently and productively. Focus on working only with great clients (even if that means you need to fire a couple and go and find a couple more) and your profitability will spike!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-neve-link-color-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Profits are important. Profits keep us in business.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Not because we need to pad our bank accounts with them, but because they mean that we are running our business to the best of our ability. We are focusing on doing things well \u2013 and growing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We want your VA business to be around for a long time. What do you need to do today to ensure that that happens? Start by analyzing your profitability, and making the changes you need to make today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Working through issues like this is exactly what you can do in a mastermind group. <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.YourVAMentor.com\/inspired\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"The Inspired Action VA mastermind (opens in a new tab)\">The Inspired Action VA mastermind<\/a><\/strong> is a small group of supportive VAs who work together through the day to day issues that crop up just like this one.
