Some things to share
I attended a free zoom meeting about Amazon VA. That's why I couldn't focus on my online hustles because I was thinking about this. It was an okay meeting. General overview as only given that time. Of course, at the end of the meeting, they will offer you masterclass but with fee. It is up to you if you want to pursue with this or not.
E-commerce is one of the leading industries these days. Working with Amazon or other platforms can be profitable and it can be something worth looking into and considering working with.
As you know, I am still in the process of looking for a job. It's not as easy when you don't know what you really want to do because there are lots of opportunities out there. That's why I'm looking into Amazon VA and see if this is something that will work for me or not.
It involves sales, product listing, product knowledge, copywriting and a lot of research, research and more research.
When we want to learn something new, we should have the right mindset to know that's why research is important.
We have the internet as the best tool for that. While fake it till you make works, it is because you have the ability to research and not depend on your coworkers to spoon feed you everything.
Also, we have to cope up with the ever changing times. Our skills should be updated. Knowledge should be upgraded. We all know that learning is never ending. It is progressive.
Age is not an issue anymore. We say that we are left behind in terms of technology and such that is because we don't update ourselves, our knowledge. I said we for I myself is guilty of this.
It made me realize last night during the zoom meeting I attended that I have not been learning anything for the past years. I am stuck with what I know.
This is applicable to everyone. Whether you are fresh graduate or want to change career, starting something new can be daunting but to be armed with new skills or at least knowledgeable enough then you can make it.
Resumes are not as simple now as before. We have Canva, MS Word templates and other online resume sites for us to make our resumes.
Some of the things I learned last night was the how, what and who of your target.
Who do you want to work with? What do you intend to do? How will you achieve your goals? What can you contribute?
If you don't have the right skill and knowledge, these questions can be stressful to think about.
So let's keep improving. Let's keep learning. Let's keep growing.
I have heard of Amazon VA before and they say that it's the real deal now. I just hope that they give decent salary.
With learning and being left out in terms of technology, age is really not an issue. We are just too lazy sometimes to do research and learn about the new things.
