📌 How Hairstylists Can Hire Virtual Assistants and Run Their Business Like an Empire

 Let's be real - this take a minute to set up, but you're pretty much going to get the same quality results, so spending a day getting all this organized and then spending $500 a month to get what an agency would give you for $4k - definitely worth considering, right? 

💨 Marketing agencies, coaches, and “business experts” don’t want you to know this secret. Why? Because if hairstylists knew how to hire their own virtual assistants (VAs), they wouldn’t need to pay for overpriced coaching, done-for-you marketing, or expensive business systems.

🚀 Offshore virtual assistants are the hidden power move that could transform your business—freeing up your time, growing your brand, and making you more money while you focus on what you do best.

📌 In this post, you’ll learn:

• Why agencies and coaches gatekeep the VA industry (because it kills their business model)
• What a VA can do for hairstylists (and how to get back 10+ hours a week)
• Step-by-step: How to find, hire, and train your own VA—without overpaying
• How much it actually costs to run your business like an empire with VA support

📌 The Secret Hairstylists Haven’t Tapped Into—Yet

Right now, hairstylists are:
❌ Doing all their own marketing, social media, and client retention work
❌ Spending hours responding to DMs, scheduling appointments, and following up with clients
❌ Trying to create Instagram posts, write emails, and update their website—all while running a booked-out schedule

Meanwhile, business owners in other industries (coaches, influencers, agency owners) have already cracked the code. They aren’t doing any of this themselves. They’ve outsourced everything to virtual assistants.

💡 The beauty industry hasn’t tapped into this yet—but when it does, it’s going to be ICONIC.

📌 Offshore virtual assistants are already running businesses behind the scenes. It’s just that hairstylists haven’t realized they can tap into the same support—for a fraction of the cost.

📌 What Can a Virtual Assistant Do for a Hairstylist?

🚀 Hiring a VA means getting hours of your time back every week. Here are just a few things a virtual assistant can handle for you:

1️⃣ Social Media Management (No More Instagram Overwhelm)

• Set up your posts & SEO optimized captions on autopilot for you.

2️⃣ Client Retention & Follow-Ups

• Sending rebooking reminders for retention funnels
• Managing your email list & automations
• Responding to client inquiries

3️⃣ Website & SEO Support

• Keeping your Google Business Profile updated
• Posting blog content to increase visibility
• Updating pricing, policies, and booking info

4️⃣ Admin & Business Support

• Organizing your schedule
• Handling spreadsheets & reports
• Creating marketing materials (Canva graphics, email templates, etc.)

💡 This is everything marketing agencies charge thousands for. But instead of paying an agency, you can pay a VA directly—and keep your business running like an empire.

📌 How Much Does It Actually Cost to Hire a VA?

💰 Most offshore virtual assistants charge between $5-$10 per hour.

Compare that to what hairstylists are paying for marketing:

What agencies charge:

• Social media management → $1,000 - $5,000 per month
• Blog & content updates → $150 - $500 per month
• SEO & visibility services → $500 - $2,500 per month
• Email marketing & client retention → $100 - $500 per month

📌 Total agency cost: $5,000 - $30,000+ per year.

What hiring your own VA costs:

• $5 - $10 per hour for a skilled offshore VA
• $200 - $400 per month for part-time marketing & admin help

📌 Total DIY VA cost: $2,400 - $5,000 per year (saving up to 90%).

🚨 That’s why agencies don’t want you to know about this.

They know that if hairstylists realize they can hire their own VA for a fraction of the price, the agency model collapses.

📌 Step-By-Step: How to Hire Your Own Offshore VA & Put Your Marketing on Autopilot

Step 1: Decide What You Want Your VA to Do

The first step is figuring out where you need help the most. Do you want to free up your social media time? Stay more organized? Increase bookings?

Common VA tasks for hairstylists:
✅ Social media scheduling & engagement
✅ Client rebooking & follow-ups
✅ Website updates & content posting
✅ Appointment management & scheduling

📌 Write down everything that takes you too much time—and let your VA handle it.

Step 2: Find a Virtual Assistant

Instead of paying an agency, you can hire a VA directly from platforms designed for outsourcing.

📌 Best places to find offshore VAs:

• OnlineJobs.ph (Best for hiring in the Philippines)
• Upwork (Freelancers from around the world)
• Fiverr (One-time or ongoing services)
• FreeUp (Pre-vetted virtual assistants)

💡 Pro Tip: If you’re not sure what to look for, search for “social media VA,” “client support VA,” or “marketing assistant VA.”

Step 3: Give Them a System to Follow

The biggest mistake people make when hiring a VA? They don’t give them a system.

🚀 This is where Booked in 30™: The Blonde Authority Kit comes in.

Instead of trying to train a VA from scratch, you hand them a plug-and-play system and let them execute it for you.

📌 Your VA will:
✔ Copy + paste your optimized bio & business description → So your name shows up where blonde clients are searching.
✔ Schedule 30 days of Instagram content → So your social media stays consistent.
✔ Update your website & booking page → So more people actually book you.
✔ Send rebooking messages → So past clients come back sooner—without you chasing them.

💡 Once the system is set up, your VA keeps it running for you.
