This episode features a conversation with Molly Rose, the founder of Virtual Assistant Academy, a company providing career alternatives for those wanting to work wherever, whenever, and with whomever they want, and podcast host Pete Codella, Go Utah’s communications director. 

Rose discusses the academy’s training and certification program, her reasons for branching out from being a corporate cubicle dweller, and the trends she sees like the great resignation and low unemployment and how it impacts her business model. She explains what goes into training successful virtual assistants, from service offerings they provide to pricing, personality traits that make successful virtual assistants, and her fee schedule. Rose also talks about the competitive virtual assistant marketplace, her company’s future, and much more.
