Key takeaways:

• Bryan is matching Kathy’s tiara-wearing spirit by wearing a wizard hat.
• How has COVID-19 impacted Bryan this year? He’s going a bit stir crazy.

• Kathy and Bryan share their age discrimination stories they experienced as they have gotten older.
• How does Adminja work?

• Virtual is here to stay. We will see an uptick in virtual teams when things go “back to normal.”
• As things become more automated, will the need for VAs slowly become obsolete?

Quotes:

“The world has now seen what virtual is like, and while we’re getting a little tired of it, when we go back to normal life, we’re going to be virtual a whole lot more than we did before.”

“Virtual assistant is the most impossible keyword to do ads for on Google because what comes up is Siri or Cortana.”

“It’s the admin work that drives you crazy, not the client work. If the admin work is automated? You feel more comfortable taking on more clients.”
