Business Standard Justin Nelson's Sphere Rocket VA Upends Virtual Assistant Business with Customized Solutions
With remote work becoming more common especially in the wake of the pandemic-induced restrictions, the demand for virtual assistant, or VA, services have been growing. In a study of over fifty career categories, FlexJobs found virtual assistant was one of the top 10 fastest-growing remote career categories. In a nutshell, a VA provides remote services to professionals who need someone to support their business. The duties of a VA may include anything from answering emails to performing web development or content creation. In other words, a VA takes a huge burden off a busy professional’s shoulders.
The idea to create a virtual assistant business came to Justin Nelson, a 25-yearold licensed realtor and a serial entrepreneur despite the young age, during a road trip that lasted almost a year and brought him to 135 locations in the US where he delivered speeches to real estate agents. “Speaking is by far my biggest talent that I have. I love speaking and can sell anything to any audience when the offer is right and the need is there,” explains Justin. He taught over 10,000 realtors how to use social media in their line of business. By the time Justin hit the road, he was an experienced realtor with 5 years in the family real estate business under his belt and dozens of deals closed and hundreds of leads generated, all thanks to his mastery of social media tools. The business was initially founded by Justin’s father after the end of a long corporate career. Putting his son in charge of lead generation and all marketing turned out to be the right decision. In the sixteen months after getting his real estate license, Justin made $360,000 in CGI, an impressive outcome for a budding realtor. Having been promoted to the position of a team leader at the age of 19 he was instrumental in growing the team to fifteen people and opening an office in Colorado
