Today we’d like to introduce you to Shay Small.
Shay, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
I started my journey to be self-employed in July of 2021, I worked as a Medical Assistant for many years and decided I needed a change in careers. I’ve always had the desire to work for myself. I started working on set as an extra in 2015. It is my dream and goal to fulfill to become a full-time actress. I provide administrative assistance and social media help to business owners and brands seeking help. My goal is to always provide professionalism to my clients and allow them time to focus on other tasks at hand.
We all face challenges, but looking back, would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
The road has been tough being self-employed working as a virtual assistant. I’ve had clients pay late, not pay at all, it taught me a lot and moving forward I have a set policy that allows my business and brand to be protected. I would not change anything, as running a business is never easy.
Thanks – so, what else should our readers know about SAssistant LLC?
I currently provide administrative and social media management to business owners who lack time or knowledge. Over the last 9 years, I’ve invested in social media courses, marketing courses and currently running 3 social media accounts. I am considered a brand as well, on top of me providing a service to others, I also stay on top ensuring my personal brand is blossoming. I previously managed a podcast, vivalavula LA, based in Los Angeles. I created content for the podcast and ensuring post are scheduled at the correct times. I am proud of myself because I made the decision to quit cold turkey, leaving me to live off savings. I took a leap of faith and would not change it for the world, I work full- time and still provide services to my clients. I offer competitive packages that allow my clients to focus on other tasks at hand.
If you had to, what characteristic of yours would you give the most credit to?
Professionalism is the most important key to my success. If my client can see I’m handling business while being professional and efficient, that ensures success for me. I want nothing more than to offer great services to others.
