CEOs: how many hours did you spend in your inbox this week?That's time I could give back to you.I'm currently open to EA roles let's talk 📩#OpenToWork #ExecutiveAssistant #CEOSupport

You're not hiring a calendar manager. You're hiring someone who:→ Protects your time→ Prevents your fires→ Runs the room before you walk inThat's what I do. Hire me first 🙌#ExecutiveAssistant #OpenToWork

Real executive support is knowing what your CEO needs before they ask.I've been that person. The quiet crisis-preventer. The one two steps ahead.Looking for a team that values that 👀#EA #AdminPro #OpenToWork

Nobody claps when the meeting runs smoothly. But someone made that happen.That someone is the EA. The PA. The admin behind the curtain.I'm one of them and I'm ready for my next role 🙋🏽‍♀️#ExecutiveAssistant #AdminLife #OpenToWork #happyweekend #HappyNewMonthfamz

@TechnicalBben This page or nothing 😊

Update for my newbies, I’ve been sharing my journey to show that you can actually build something from scratch. This year makes it 2 years for me in tech, and my portfolio has grown a lot I mean working with a brand with 100 million + users to 22 million+ users. Across the globe. A client reached out with an assistant role at $3/hour. That’s low, no doubt. I told her straight what I will and won’t do at that rate. I gave her a clear list of tasks I can handle for that price. I also made it clear I deliver at a high level. She understood and agreed to work with my terms. It’s a long-term role with light tasks, and yes, it’s below what I usually charge. But it gives me hands-on experience in the women’s niche for e-commerce and more exposure. I could have ignored it, but I chose to take the money and the experience. I’d rather stay busy and keep building than sit idle waiting months for a $5,000 deal. There’s nothing wrong with being a beginner and figuring things out. Don’t let people online pressure you. Nobody is paying your bills. Learn how to negotiate. Know your value. If the pay is low, reduce the scope of work. Small pay should mean small tasks. If you don't like realistic content please avoid me... And don't leave any money on the table. But in the end so what works for you. As for me any lil fund I get this year I take but on my terms if you can do that then you can go.

Congratulations you showed up today 😊

@TechnicalBben @MeetIjeoma I started from 20k

@MeetIjeoma I started from 50k lol 😂😅😅😅

Everyone in my niche charges $45–$50 per hour and has an insane portfolio. I knew I couldn’t compete head-on as a beginner, so I made a different move. I positioned myself like an expert, adjusted my pricing, and used strong CTAs to attract the right kind of clients. I landed a client who wanted to cut costs. I later found out their original budget was $400, and that was all they planned to spend. For that type of task and tool, people usually charge way more. But because I knew how to negotiate and communicate value, I secured the deal at a good starting price. We agreed on $400 and I clearly defined what that would cover. As the project went on, they realized it would take more time than expected, so I communicated that early. They agreed to pay for extra hours, and that one deal ended up bringing in over $3,000. It was a good deal for and for them if they had gone for the idolo's they would get billed like crazy. A lot of people on X will say one thing and do something else in reality. Don’t let them speak for you. Not everyone is closing $3K deals, and that’s fine. Now with AI in the mix, things are even more competitive. I still take $20–$50 jobs, but I’m clear about scope. "I tell clients exactly what that budget will cover if you want quality you get to pay higher, and if it works, we move forward." I made about $15K in my first year, mostly from small jobs. Those small jobs compounded. The same clients told me they are coming back with more projects because I was affordable and reliable within their budget. And I can also get referrals too. That’s how I built my portfolio and real experience all in my first year in the tech space. Everybody is shouting “you can’t charge 50K.” But sometimes, the real problem is not the amount, it’s the lack of negotiation skills. Most people in tech don’t even know how to negotiate properly. It’s not always about charging the highest price. It’s about knowing how to position yourself, communicate value, and negotiate your way into bigger opportunities. No, all of us go make $5000 and that's fine.
