When you’re running a VA business, there’s going to come a point in time where you need to take a close look at the quality vs. quantity equation.

Providing top quality virtual assistant services should always be your priority: you don’t just want to offer basic services, you want to be the best at providing those services. You don’t just want to get the job done – it’s important to put your best effort into everything that you do so that you can be proud of your work.

Still, there’s that ever important part of running a VA business: having clients. When you’re just getting started, it’s sometimes a bit tough to tell how many clients you should be bringing on.

New virtual assistants in particular tend to have a battle of wanting to grow their businesses quickly: that’s where the quality of quality vs. quantity really comes into play. If you grow your business too quickly, you may not be able to provide the quality of service that will keep your clients coming back – and referring you to others.

Ultimately, there’s something that’s really important to keep in mind: if your services are top rate, clients will be willing to pay more. The better the quality of your services, the more you’ll be able to earn for providing them. So, that’s the question: would you rather have a lot of clients to juggle just to keep the money coming in, or would you rather have a few top rate clients who pay top dollar for great services?
