However, not all VA’s are ready to take on the roles they’ve been assigned, which is where a virtual assistant coach takes the stage. According to Boost Media Agency, a coach is of vital importance to create a thriving career as a VA. Each with their own unique coaching styles, here we present the 15 Virtual Assistant coaches to watch in 2021.

Erin Mortenson (@Erin.mort)

After climbing the corporate ladder for years, Erin Mortenson realized she wanted more in life. Her demanding corporate career had left her with terrible anxiety, and her desire to travel, live a better life, and help others was pointing her to the online space. She utilized her business skills and education to start a virtual assistant business, and was able to scale her business to $8,000/months within 4 months of launching. In doing so, Erin had debunked a popular myth that virtual assistants can’t make good money online, so she set out to bridge this gap in the industry. Erin’s signature program, the OSP Training Academy, thus was born. Through OSP, Erin pioneered a new, original way of teaching VA’s how to have successful, profitable businesses that allows them to ditch the 9 to 5 and make real money online. She has since helped over 200 clients start their own online businesses.

An industry leader and innovator, Erin has continued to shape the VA industry. Through her original framework in OSP, Erin and her team guide their clients to create successful businesses without having any prior online experience. Her core principles of integrity, work ethic, sustainability, and profitability have allowed for the long term success of her clients. Many of today’s top coaches even got their start in OSP, and the community of alumni is unmatched.

Outside of her passion for teaching VA’s, Erin is passionate about sharing her struggles with overcoming addiction and managing anxiety. Her authenticity, realness, and openness about her struggles have helped many in similar situations find hope. Through her page, free trainings, and with the help of the OSP Training Academy, many people have turned their situations around and have found success thanks to the valuable guidance Erin has to offer in her incredible programs.
