More information about our network:

• We do not take a percentage of your fees – what you earn from clients we connect you to, remains yours
• We do not teach you how to use the software programs you provide a service with – you should know these already or we can direct you to suitable courses
• If you have not got any prior working experience, then sorry, we cannot accept you
• All memberships are per individual only – we don’t accept groups or companies
• You only need to get one regular client to cover your membership fee for years to come

We know there are discussions via various chat forums about work at home ‘opportunities’.

This is not a ‘get rich quick scheme’ or a scam, and there is work involved. But if you have the skills and abilities, suitable equipment and software at home, then there is no reason why you couldn’t be working at home like the rest of our team.  We have a private Facebook group where members of our network can get to know one another (great for when you want to subcontract or outsource work), learn about being a VA, hear about others’ experiences, and so on. However, you can only join the Facebook group once you have become a member.

Why not check all the links below to get real information about this industry of Virtual Assistants? If in doubt and worried about a possible scam, just search for our network name on the search engines and you will find lots of web references, listings with directories and many virtual assistants linked to us.

Our longest term member has been with us for over 20 years and many members have been with us for at least 5 years. We are here to stay and would love to have you join us.

Please note: We are not an employment agency and cannot guarantee work.  We are a membership based industry group designed to help you establish your business and one of our member benefits includes introducing you to clients. We do get a lot of client requests that come through on a regular basis.

Team Testimonials

“I have been a member of A Clayton’s Secretary for several years now and I have always found Kathie to be a dedicated and very knowledgeable person who is a leader in her field. I am always amazed at the many endeavours Kathie undertakes yet still finds time to be a Virtual Mentor as well as a great support to me and the other team members. Kathie is a great moderator of our online group and I have also come to consider her a “virtual friend”. Among her passions are writing, public speaking, blogging and Kathie is also now a VA Coach. Should you at any time require any of the services Kathie provides you won’t be disappointed!”
Monika Newman, Owner, Monika Newman

“Its been a pleasure being a member of Kathie’s ACS Network for over 20 years now. She is a great inspiration to myself and all members of the VA network in Australia and internationally. As members we rely on her for support and professional advice in helping us grow our VA business. I wish her continued success in the future.”
Mary Jordon, Owner, Xpress Online Secretarial Services

I just wanted to say how much the jobleads group has contributed to the phenomenal start my business has had. I have had some great leads as a result of this group, with many of them becoming regular clients for me, and after just 2 ½ months of operation, I have enough work now to justify putting my daughter into daycare for 3 full days a week, with the possibility of having to increase that in the not-too-distant future. So, just a personal thank you for a great service that you offer to your subscribers, I am so grateful to you.
Kindest regards, Lia…
Lia Harman | Virtual Assistant
