A freelancer is buried in admin work, turning down good projects and missing dinners at home. The fix seems obvious: hire a VA. But which tasks should go first, and how do you find someone you can trust? Preston and Austin Church, founder of Freelance Cake Community, answer both. Austin draws on more than four years of working with VAs to show where most freelancers go wrong, why character comes before skills, and how to pick the first tasks to hand off so you get your time back.
