I've created an online webinar session to help you decide if becoming a work from home VA is the right step for you.
I'll also give you essential tips and guidance to help you become a great Virtual Assistant.
“All of the scary parts of setting up my own VA business have been taken care of; the legal templates, terms and conditions and guidance with regards to insurance policies have been so useful”
I’m Sarah Rugg, owner of My VA Business.
I’m on a mission to help you realise your potential and achieve a super flexible and rewarding work life.
Before I started my own VA business I was working 50+ hours per week in the corporate world. That was manageable in my twenties.
But then I had my two lovely kids and I knew something had to change. I’d returned to work part time and I was treated differently. I wasn’t able to put in the extra hours and in all honesty my heart just wasn’t in it. Life wasn’t just about work anymore!
So, in 2005 I decided to set up as a Virtual Assistant and be my own boss. I made every mistake in the book on this journey and learnt the hard way. I now fast track others to VA success by teaching them what works and what doesn’t. I still run my VA business today (which has grown to a team of 30+).
I LOVE the flexibility and balance I have… And this is where I can help you!
I’ve been able to help so many people achieve the flexible and fulfilling work life they craved.
With my FAB-VA programme I can help you to do the same.
There are many reasons why you might want to start a VA business…
More quality time with your family
Nobody asking you to choose work over family
No wasted time commuting
Just pop to your spare room or the kitchen table
Complete freedom over your working hours
Mornings, evenings or afternoons, make it fit around you
Full control over the work you choose to do
If you don’t want to do it… don’t. It’s liberating, trust me
Greater self worth, putting your skills to good use
Choose the services you offer. Do the work you love
No more ‘Mum Guilt’
Need to take the day off when your child’s ill? No problem
Financial freedom – you’re building this for you
On average VAs in the UK charge £30/hour
Unlimited potential to grow the business
A one (WO)man band or VA company, the sky’s the limit
We guide you through how to define your services. The best thing about this? You’re in control, nobody will make you do jobs you don’t want to do any more.

“I didn’t have the confidence to just jump away from my job and into something that was completely unknown, so I wanted to do something that was going to give me flexibility and let me do it alongside my current job until I saw that it was something that was going to work for me and that I could make happen and that I could then jump and make the transition when I was ready. You can do it in your own time, it gives you the flexibility, but it teaches you everything that you need to know as well”
Escaping the Corporate World
Starting out as a VA I had huge concerns. Can I do it? Have I got the skills? Can I really run my own business? Will I end up back in the corporate world with my tail between my legs?
Sounding familiar?
Up to then, I’d always had a regular salary and although it nearly broke me earning it every month, leaving was really going to take me outside of my comfort zone. I didn’t feel I had the confidence to do that on my own.
Meet my Business Coaches
For many years now I’ve been coached by professional coaches Michelle and Anna. They’ve helped me achieve things I never thought possible.
Some of the photos on this page are taken during a dream holiday that I’d thought was totally out of reach. Michelle reminded me before I went ‘Remember when this was just a dream? When you get there, I want you to stand on that cliff top, give yourself a moment and reflect on what you’ve achieved.’
So I did. That was quite an emotional moment for me. Especially given the lack of confidence I’d felt in the early days.
Benefit from Michelle and Anna’s Coaching
I can’t bear to see people who would clearly make an amazing VA, but their lack of confidence holds them back from that dream.
When I developed this programme, I knew if I could get Michelle and Anna on board it would make FAB-VA the complete VA business package. It would be another thing to set our programme apart from others out there. So I was delighted when they agreed to be part of it.
The FAB-VA programme includes their full video guided Confidence Course – BOOST – to support the success of your VA journey.
“The ‘Boost Programme’ gave me a completely new sense of self-esteem and confidence in my ability to do this”
Getting clients and delivering a great service to them is only part of running a business. Most of the people who join us have come from employment and have never had to think about the financial side of running a business. Take a look at some of our member testimonials below… I feel grateful that I’ve been able to help so many people achieve their own successful VA businesses.
Here’s what some of our members had to say…
On the FAB-VA programme overall…
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the FAB-VA course. I didn’t know where to begin with starting to work for myself but this comprehensive course went through all the necessary steps, to ensure everything was covered. I felt like I could work at my own pace and have support from Sarah and the Facebook group at each stage. The course is great value for money in my opinion. It gave me the confidence to put myself out there and start earning money from paying clients, so it really paid for itself. I’d definitely recommend this course to anyone thinking of going it alone as a VA.
On the flexibility of training while still working…
I didn’t have the confidence to just jump away from my job and into something that was completely unknown, so I wanted to do something that was going to give me flexibility and let me do it alongside my current job until I saw that it was something that was going to work for me and that I could make happen and that I could then jump and make the transition when I was ready. You can do it in your own time, it gives you the flexibility, but it teaches you everything that you need to know as well.
On the videos…
The videos are incredibly helpful as they are essential to me too for keeping on track with the programme. It’s unbelievably helpful to have context along with the information on The Hub, to have points elaborated on.
On starting a VA events management business…
I am really, really enjoying the program, it is absolutely invaluable, and is guiding me through my learning of starting my VA events management business up. I don’t know what I would have done without it to be honest.
On the value of FAB-VA…
Simply put – signing up to the FAB programme with My VA Business was worth every penny!
I knew I wanted to set up a VA business and in no time at all I had a company set up and ready to go, not without hard work on my part of course but I followed each step and took on board all the advice Sarah provided. I feel safe in the knowledge that I have everything covered and together with all the templates that came as part of the programme meant that there was no stress putting everything in place.
If I can do it, you can too!
How you found the FAB-VA programme…
If anyone is thinking of starting a business as a VA then the FAB programme is a must. It is a full on programme but gives you everything you need to become a success, tips on things to do and also not to, saving you wasted time and lots of money. Sarah covers every angle of how to be a great VA and offers a great after sales support network too giving you peace of mind. I can’t recommend it highly enough.
Now established…
Honestly the best money you will ever spend… this has changed my life. I’m now able to work from home on a much better salary than before and fit it around the children – Sarah Rugg, is one of life’s inspirational people!
On getting client number one…
I’ve been following your FAB VA training course. I’m in the early stages of setting up as a VA. It’s been challenging but just secured my first client. Thank you very much for such a detailed and informative training package. Absolutely recommended!
On the resources…
All of the scary parts of setting up my own VA business have been taken care of; the legal templates, terms and conditions and guidance with regards to insurance policies have been so useful.
On changing Lives…
I just wanted to say a massive Thank You for all that you have done for me with My VA business. You won’t know this, but this business has literally changed mine and my family’s life. My business is steadily growing thanks to all the help and support that you guys have given to me.
The FAB-VA programme is a brilliant resource for anyone considering becoming a VA. The programme is well structured and will give you all the guidance and tools required to become a successful VA. The team that Sarah has put together are extremely helpful if you encounter any problems and there is a great Facebook group should you have any questions.
On the course materials…
The FAB VA course materials are comprehensive and clear. They provide an insight into VA know how, professional requirements and best practice, for success. Sarah really understands the industry. The FAB VA course empowers students to both launch and establish their own VA business, with professional confidence, skill and awareness..
On the tools and the confidence to do it…
I did this course earlier this year when I first started up as a Virtual Assistant. It was invaluable. I learnt so many things that are helping. I’ve still got a few modules left to take, and I will, but I’m pretty busy juggling clients already and Jax Virtual Services is only 4 months old.
Thank you Sarah Rugg and team, you gave me the tools and the confidence to be able to say “I can do this”.
On the FAB-VA programme…
I came across the FAB-VA programme after I had my “aha moment” about what I wanted to do! being out of the office environment for many years I had no clue where to start or what was needed. I joined a 1 hour webinar with Sarah Rugg where she explained the basics of what is needed to be a VA. It felt daunting but I jumped with both feet into it and decided to get this right and start working for myself and reach my goals I was going to need help! That’s where the FAB-VA programme took centre stage! The programme runs you through everything, from setting up and what’s needed to the nitty gritty stuff such at GDPR and insurance. Has an amazing boost programme to help with confidence and plenty tools tools and tips to help you along! This programme was my life saver! I secured my 1st 2 clients a month before expected and I had to hit the ground running and thanks to this amazing programme I took the clients on with confidence and although not 100% ready I have managed well thanks to everything I have learnt and all the amazing support from the Facebook members of FAB-VA! Thank You!
On the members Facebook community…
There is a community there, we all help each other out, as that community is growing it is great because there are people posting questions that either I have thought of or maybe thought I can’t ask that question and then someone else asks it. You don’t feel alone you feel supported and we are all in the same boat, I think that is the great thing….. it is the personal support that I have really enjoyed and not feeling alone in it.
As a reminder, you’ll get…
