Chief Learning Officer, Freelance University
In 2008, my wife Kelly and I co-founded Freelance University with the purpose of becoming the #1 go-to training center for Freelancers and VAs from around the globe! As of this year, we have successfully trained over 25,000 Virtual Assistants and Freelancers in more than 75 countries. Kelly and I have had the great privilege of building our Online University while raising our 5 daughters who are the greatest blessings of our lives. I look forward to meeting you and seeing you either in this program or at our University very soon. I leave you with my favorite quote from marketing guru, Seth Godin: "The only worse thing than starting something and failing... is not starting something."

Read MoreLots of good information. My only suggestion is to slow down and describe what you are clicking on; step by step. Don't leave any steps out. I understand that it is difficult to remember to break it down step by step because posting on Instagram is second nature to you, but not everyone is as familiar with Instagram as the younger generation.

Great information, however I believe some information should be updated as it was referencing information for 2018 and we are not in mid 2020.
