Manchester VA Conference: Community, Skills and Connection with Emma and Victoria

Have you heard about the very exciting new virtual assistant conference coming to the heart of Manchester? The Manchester VA Conference is a brand-new event dedicated to VAs and OBMs who want to upskill, connect with like-minded people, and learn from inspiring speakers.

"It's just so nice to get out and meet people face to face that are doing the same thing that you are doing, that are facing the same challenges that you are facing, swap ideas."

In this week's episode of The Visionary VA Podcast, I am joined by Emma Price and Victoria Baker, founders of The Manchester VA Conference, to talk all things community, connection, skills and why events like this matter.

Key takeaways:

1️⃣ Emma and Victoria noticed there were hardly any VA conferences happening up north (with most events based down south) so they decided to change that, and The Manchester VA Conference was born.

2️⃣ The event features a diverse lineup of speakers covering everything from money mindset, AI and automations, to social media and beyond.

3️⃣ You might recognise one of the speakers, that's me! I'll be doing a session all about helping VAs own their space, back themselves, and build the business they actually want.

4️⃣ Attending VA conferences is so important for picking up new skills, learning from others, and building a network and community you can lean on.

5️⃣ Putting together an all-day conference takes serious time, care and dedication, but as Emma and Victoria will tell you, it is absolutely worth it.
