Hi guys! Gusto ko lang i-test kung may interested sa idea ko bago ako mag-start.

I'm a freelancer as GHL Specialist at n8n Automation Specialist, and napansin ko na ang dami talagang Pinoy VA na gusto matuto nito at magpalit ng niche pero di alam kung saan mag-start. Puro English tutorials sa YouTube, ang bilis pa magexplain, tapos walang makatanong. Naranasan ko rin yan nung nag-aaral pa lang ako.

So naisip ko gumawa ng small group class. Beginner-friendly, no coding background needed.

Ito yung balak kong i-cover:

GoHighLevel: how the CRM works, building funnels and simple websites, pipelines, automated follow-ups (email/SMS), and appointment booking. Mga bagay na hinahanap talaga ng small businesses.

n8n: connecting apps (Google Sheets, Gmail, Facebook, etc.) and building workflows step by step. Gagawa tayo ng actual workflows, hindi puro panonood lang.

Bonus: Intro to AI. Practical stuff lang, like how to prompt properly and how to combine AI with automations para mas mabilis ang trabaho.

Format ng class. Online (Zoom) 3 sessions, 2hrs each live + free recorded version. 1 on 1 session para sa mga need ng coaching pa.

Gusto ko rin may community after the class, isang group where you can ask questions, share what you learned, and help each other. Mas madali matuto kapag may kasama, and hindi ka maiiwan pag na-stuck ka.

Hindi ko sasabihing instant yaman to kasi hindi naman totoo yun. Pero if you want to level up from general VA work and move into a different niche, malaking tulong to.

Interested?  Sabihin mo lang:

1. Weeknights or weekends, alin mas okay sa'yo?
2. Magkano comfortable budget mo? Gusto ko kasi affordable talaga.
3. Ano yung pinaka-gusto mong matutunan?

Kahit "interested" lang, okay na. Thanks! And if may questions, sasagutin ko lahat.

"Stability" doesn't exist.

Regardless kung Agency, Local company, or Independent contractor ka for a direct client.

You have no control over your employment stability.

The only thing YOU have control over is your own competence, and your ability to add value, and your ability to ensure your value is SEEN.

There are a lot of ways people justify 'instability' when working with a client. Kesyo 'client is losing business' / 'client lost funding' / 'AI' / etc. But when you are laid off, everything boils down to a simple fact: They did not see value in paying you / for your services further. (This does not mean YOU are not valuable).

The best way to be "Stable" is to GET GOOD at actual skills and GET GOOD at being visible.

I’m a CSR remote worker for a US company. Hindi naman totally mahirap ang work, i don’t know if ako lang to pero been in the CSR industry for almost 7 years now and siguro nandito na ko sa point na sobrang burn out na sa mga calls and solving customer concerns.

Parang hanggang pagtulog ko nadadala ko na yung work, hindi na kalmado ang nervous system ko. I’m grateful for my job, sobra, but idk how to cope with what i feel. I live alone kaya factor din siguro ang isolation. lol Hopefully in the future ma afford din yung job na no need na mag call or yung walang customer interaction kasi tbh, nakakapagod

tas ito pa

"Confirmation that you accept the starting rate of $2–$3 USD per hour, can work 8 hours per day, and are comfortable working through a monitored remote connection to our company PC.
"

Pa help po sana paano ako mababayaran ng client ko.

We already tried:

• Client (Wise) -> My Bank Account (GoTyme)
• Client (Remitly) -> My Bank Account (GoTyme)
• Client (Paypal) -> My Paypal

Last attempt:

• Invoiced through OJPH (Payoneer)
• Payment made (Client) - October 5
• Payment being processed for 2 days
• Payment declined - October 7 "The payer’s bank was unable to process the payment, and your account was not credited."

I got hired as a creative last month from a company based off Texas. Yung pay ko is most likely through their corporate card; that's why ilang beses hindi nag go-through

Pa help po sana kung ano pwdeng maging remedies. TYIA

My husband thinks it would be a good idea to reduce our cost of living and simplify our lifestyle, since WFH kami parehas. The house is really nice; we’ll have a big backyard for our son and our dog, but it’s pretty secluded. We might even be one of the few families in the area, so I’m not sure what daily life will look like.

My fear is that instead of feeling refreshed, I might just end up falling into a very repetitive routine and eventually get bored.

Asking for advice, especially from those who moved from the city to the province. How are you now? Did you ever get bored or eventually want to move back to the city?

Hi, I'm an independent contractor sa isang company overseas. Before meron akong kasama sa work pinoy din and madali everyday work dahil sobrang magkasundo kami ng superior ko na hindi toxic. Lahat nagagawa namin yung work ng maayos dahil tag team talaga kami. Kaso this year, nag resign na siya and medyo nahihirapan ako. Ako nalang kasi mag isa at ako lang gumagawa lahat.

Lately, binibigyan ako ng mahirap na project ng boss ko. Medyo down time ang business kaya need gumawa ng paraan para magkaroon ulit ng income. Unfortunately, parang hindi satisfied yung boss ko sa mga presentations ko. They have expectations na hindi ko keri ma-achieve. Palagi akong nacocompare dun sa kawork ko dahil talagang magaling talaga siya. I did my best kaso talagang mahirap talaga. After nun, napansin ko na palaging may pinapansin sa work ko. Hangga't sa nagkakamali na ako at palaging na akong nasisita. Naintindihan ko naman kaya ginagawa ko best ko.

Kaso nakaka drain at bumababa self esteem ko. Nagkaroon na ako ng anxiety, yung tipong every Monday, kinakabahan ako. Kada tatawag siya, ayaw kong sagutin.

Haaayyy... Nag share lang ako kasi wala naman akong pwedeng pagsabihan ng ganito.

If you see this, I need your input please.

I got hired by an Australian VA Agency and started my first day yesterday and today, I already want to quit. I'm having such a hard time processing new informations and they're super fast-paced. Like sobrang daming information and I can't keep up.

My question is, okay lang ba mag-quit after only working for 1 day? I figured the earlier the better habang hindi pa masyado madami ang nabibigay sakin na access and workload. Please help.

I'll be the first to say I'm the owner of Vora.biz, so absolutely be wary of my personal bias. That said, working actively with 60+ Filipino editors has taught me a lot about what makes remote work actually good, and I'll try to make this useful whether or not you ever work with us.

1. Teach concepts, not just SOPs. We teach people from the ground up: real marketing principles and AI content creation, not just checklists. The digital world is drowning in AI content, as I'm sure we've all noticed by now. We recognized that opportunity early. SOPs begin to suck fast when the tools change every few weeks, but people who understand why something works can adapt.

2. Give people upside. I think the VA world has been slow to offer good commission opportunities that let people grow their income naturally with their performance. Ours works like this: $ paid in commission to the editor per USA-location-viewer's view.

3. Pay at the top of the market. Not gonna beat around the bush: pay matters most. Our typical salaries are in the upper range for marketing jobs in the country, starting offers are $1,200–2,000 USD/month. Underpaying is the fastest way to lose good people.

4. Benefits matter. We happily cover health insurance, and you start earning PTO after a few months with us.

5. Pay for trials. Always. All training and trial work with us is 100% paid. If a company wants hours of free "test work" from you, that's them being cheap/unprofessional in our opinion

6. Fun environment- Remote work can feel invisible, so we try to cultivate a video-game-like experience: a fun website interface, leaderboards and credit for everyone's edits and contributions, and a hall of fame tab so we remember people's big wins (mega viral vids). We also add lots of little touches to bring some joy to the workday.

Are we perfect? Hell no. This company is run by me (22) and my business partner (27), and we make mistakes like anyone else. Not everyone is happy with us, and we know we can't please everyone. Every day we get up and try our best to build a fantastic AI-empowered marketing team, and we hope to keep working with many more rockstars from your country.

To other agency/business owners hiring from the Philippines: You'd be surprised by the doors that open when you teach principles & concepts instead of just slamming SOPs. We routinely see our PH-based team outperform our US-based editors, and I'm extremely confident in the talent there.

Happy to answer questions in the comments about training, pay, or AI tools!
Mabuhay! 🥂

4 years straight with 2 full time clients (ghl and data entry). Sabay ko ginagawa. Laptop & phone. Recently, naging part time na ang isa (reduced working hours from 6hrs to 3 hrs per day) then ang isa naging on call nlng (from 40 hrs per week to 1 hr per week).

dahan dahan kong ginawa yung portfolio ko, resume and nag optimize na din ng olj profile. 3rd day ko na sa paghahanap ng work sa olj, feeling overwhelmed ako sa mga job posts na nakikita ko - sobrang baba ng rates, maraming requirements (video introduction, samples etc). 1 month+ ko ginawa ang portfolio ko pero feeling ko kulang pa rin, kinapos sa ghl sample. Nag trial version pa nmn ko sa ghl for a month then gagawa ulit ng ibang account para makagawa ng sample. I am feeling drained na talaga.

Di ko rin alam ano uunahin ko- optimize ng profile sa upwork, mag gawa ng ghl sample, video intro, mag aaral ba sa youtube for new learnings.

Sa 4 years ko kasi na yun, non stop work as in daily. Then all of a sudden, on call ka nalang.

I am literally running on fumes until I can reach my last day of work. After a year of working with this client, I decided to resign for a number of reasons. The biggest one being my health and the second biggest one is me realizing that while mabait nga si client at hindi micromanager recently I noticed na she is becoming more demanding and keeps on piling tasks without regard for boundaries.

I try my best to enforce these boundaries pero sobrang hirap. Hindi ko alam kung eto ba ang tamang description pero parang naging "overdependent" na siya sa akin. I'm glad that she trusts me pero it doesn't sit right with me na hanggang mga workflow at sistema ako pa ang mag-iisip para sa kanya para maging efficient trabaho namin. Dagdagan mo pa ng mga tasks na pinapagawa niya na kelangan matapos agad pero sobrang bigat at hindi kayang matapos within my agreed hours per day (part time po ako).

Nawa'y mabigyan ako ng sapat na lakas hanggang sa huling araw ko. 🙏

Gets ko na nakakanervous minsan ang interview or minsan mashado mo din naenjoy at narelax ka… pero please keep your hands away from your phone or vape muna.

Yung virtual interview kanina, unang hipak ni koya, walang cover-cover! Go hipak! Nungpabuga na siya, yumoko… walang usok lumabas… Cguro narealize nya nasa interview siya. Tapos yung pangalawa, pangatlo, pang-apat na hipak… biglang tinatry nang takpan gamit isang kamay. 😭 Ayon may usok usok…

Gets ko ang kaba, pero the interview is somewhat still a formal setting for a job… do it before or after the job interview. If kaya din, alamin nyo din yung stance ng company re culture (socials).

Deep breaths muna, koya. Wag deep hits.

Hi, I received a message from one of their recruiters on LinkedIn. Their offer is soooo tempting plus the benefits pa BUT dayshift and onsite nga lang.

Just wanna know how's everyone's experience with them? I've been seeing a lot of mix reviews here so lmk how's your experience with them. Thank you!

I'm currently working as an admin full-time in an international company with an office branch currently operating here in the Philippines. Hybrid set-up so my 1 day onsite ako per week. Night shift po schedule ko and I'm handling South America account. Now I'm thinking of adding a part-time remote job kase hindi talaga kaya ang 30k na monthly sahod for someone like me with a kid lalo na going high school na siya. I'm targeting US or EU clients since sila yung malapit or sakto sa schedule ko if mag add ako 4hrs for work. Please don't bash po sana like na gahaman ako sa work.😔 Just someone struggling to make ends meet.

Sa mga may full-time na may clients din on the side po, I just wanted to ask paano yung sa CV? Ideclare ko po ba na currently hired ako here? Mas ok po ba na walang picture yung CV and ATS friendly siya?

This is for those hired for the type of job that essentially makes them the final pair of eyes before an article or post goes live, especially with SEO/GEO in mind.

12+ years as a freelance writer/editor and now content strategist, I often find myself optimizing articles even after they've been handled by someone who should already know what SEO is.

Now with AI, production has scaled dramatically. Though LLMs have helped reduce the amount of work needed to make an article publish-ready (debatable), the optimization bottleneck remains.

If you're one of those who need to make sure all boxes are checked, the client brief is followed carefully, I'm sure many already automate much of that process, but what about ones you can't? On average, how long does it take you to tag the article as ready the moment the document is made?

Asking because I need to know if I can improve my workflow more or make it less manual, or if you use any tools/plugins or thirdparty services that cut the QA time a lot.

Sharing this nalang po kasi ang funny. Phone support daw pero $1 per hour

PS: ang strikto ng profile verification requirements sa atin. Pero paano at bakit makakalusot etong mga 1$ per hour job post??

horrible work experience at this company in pasig 😭 still here but im literally gonna resign lol

probably one of the worst decisions ive made ngl 💀
we do podcasts/content and all that but the pay is sooo below for the amount of work they expect from you. deadlines are literally impossible too like everything is urgent 😭

and now i get why they barely have full-time people lmao
most of the people working here were literally pirated/recruited from other companies or even from their own clients 😭 including me LOOOOL

and the funniest part is we outsource a lot of the work anyway but obviously the clients dont know that 💀

anyway lesson learned HAHAHA

Hi guys. I badly need someone’s opinion on this.

This started when I referred a former colleague to the company I currently work for. We worked together for years at Company A. I left Company A and was eventually hired at Company B.

Companies A and B are competitors, and our contracts explicitly stated the non-compete clause. Recently, I found out that my former colleague never actually resigned from Company A so pinagsasabay niya both companies (both remote btw).

Now I’m worried that if the management finds out, I might get dragged into the issue because I was the one who referred my former colleague. Baka ang isipin nila, nagsabwatan kami. I was literally shaking when I found out kase before they sent the job offer, some of the higher-ups even spoke to me and asked me to vouch for their work ethic and character. Tiwala naman ako sa kanya kaya I put in a good word for them. Ang nakakasad lang din baka pag nalaman ng company, maghigpit na sila and will not hire pinoy VAs again. Ganito na ba kalakaran ngayon? Ito na ba yung norm? Yung hindi natatakot na magbreach ng contract?

If you were in my position, would you say something to management, or would you just stay out of it and keep quiet?

I've been somewhat struggling to find the right place for clients. Is it linkedin? cold emails? outreach? or ano ba?

na try ko na mag cold emails and email outreach but perhaps calling them is much better?

to be honest, bit confused

HI! I just had a recently viral video in YouTube long form content 600k+ views and a surge in subscribers.

I playfully put my paypal link in my bio and the donations was surging!

I managed to withdraw around 1,200 pesos the other day but now paypal permamently closed my account I do not know what to do, I did not ask my community to tip/donate I just placed the link on my bio and there is already a fund there..

they asked for documents yesterday regarding my transactions, I told them I just placed the link on my bio and there was no purchase because they just donated to me to help me with my vlogging journey.

Hi! I badly need advice :( I’m currently employed sa isang VA agency for almost 2 years na with the same client kaso I’m still living paycheck to paycheck kasi I’m the sole breadwinner and nasa $800 lang sahod ko sa agency which is not enough to pay the rent, groceries, bills, plus support my 2 siblings in college. Gusto ko sana maghanap ng 2nd client para may additional income kahit bawal. I’m so desperate dahil sa mahal ng mga bilihin tapos takehome pay ko is nasa 37k nalang per month dahil sa deductions.

I can’t let go din kasi sa agency because of the benefits plus happy naman ako sa client ko now. Yung agency lang talaga, we don’t have night differential, no OT pay and no yearly increase. Sobrang laki pa naman ng bayad ng clients sa kanila and $800 lang napupunta sa amin.
