Today\u2019s guest is Dexter \u201cDex\u201d Carreon, Team Liberty\u2019s very first Virtual Assistant! \nDex joined Team Liberty in Summer 2016 as the \u201cVirtual Podcast Manager\u201d. He\u2019s role includes editing audio, designing social media graphics, competitor research, Wordpress management and even building an Woocommerce online store. \n\nThe purpose of this episode is to, again, give you an inside look at the background and experiences of another Virtual Assistant and the journey to finally becoming a VA. Like many of us, Dex started off stocking shelves in a grocery store, then was hired for the night shift for a technical support call center and now as a technical Virtual Assistant. \n\nTune in to hear how Dex used to spend 5+ hours/day to travel to-from work and put in 11-hour workdays during the \u201cgraveyard shift\u201d. Listen to his enthusiasm as he describes how his life has gotten so much better now that he works as a Virtual Assistant. More money; way fewer hours and work from home without the need to travel. \n\nWe also discuss his experience without having a 4-year college degree, but getting the same types of jobs and picking up skills and \u201csoftware upgrades\u201d that continued to raise his market value. \n\nIn the end, Dex could never go back to the Call Center jobs. The lack of dynamic tasks and flexible schedule can\u2019t compare with the awesomeness of working from home as a Liberty Virtual Assistant!\n\nRemember, when you hire a Virtual Assistant you are creating a win/win scenario and helping improve the lives of someone on the other side of the world. #winning\n\nTune in next week to hear my Tip to Effectively Communicate with your Virtual Assistant.\n\nContact Info:\n\nWebsite: https://www.libertyvas.com/\n\nDon\u2019t Miss an Episode!
