Entry Level Remote Jobs That Pay Weekly
Work from home and earn $2500+ monthly with these remote job opportunities
Meet Katie Weston
Hello friend!
My name is Katie Weston, the course creator and co-founder of TypeWhizz.
You already have the skills to earn a sustainable income online.
Especially because you excel at tasks like typing, organizing, and communicating—the very skills that businesses are looking for in Virtual Assistants.
A little bit about me? I used to work at a call center, and I absolutely hated it.
The long hours, the lack of flexibility, and the constant stress took a toll on my mental health, leaving me with anxiety and depression.
I knew I needed a change, but every online job I found required a degree or managerial experience I didn’t have.
That all changed the day I discovered the world of transcription and virtual assistance.
I realized that my everyday skills were exactly what businesses needed. Within months, I went from feeling trapped in my job to building a career that allowed me to work from home, spend more time with my children, and finally feel in control of my life.
If you’re interested in earning $2,000+ per month online as a Virtual Assistant, you’re in the right place.
We’ve helped over 3,000 students turn their skills into rewarding careers as Virtual Assistants, transcribers, and video captioners. Our graduates are now earning steady incomes while working from home, or anywhere in the world.
This is such a great, flexible, work-from-home career path that nobody talks about, yet companies are constantly hiring in this space.
The demand for virtual assistants has skyrocketed in recent years.
The number of online businesses worldwide grew by 4.6% from 2023 to 2024, reaching 27.2 million.
With this rise in demand, companies are looking for virtual assistants to handle essential tasks like data entry, formatting documents, customer service, online stock control, and transcribing audio into text.
Many business owners do not have the time to complete these tasks and often want to avoid paying for office space or full-time employees, which is why virtual assistants have become so essential.
This career path has brought flexibility and financial freedom to thousands of people, including myself.
I was utterly miserable until I figured out that you could earn an income online, from home with my kids close by.
The best part is that you don’t need years of training or an expensive degree.
With a few simple skills, you can start a flexible, well-paying career working from anywhere in the world – even from your couch in your pyjamas.
What Does An Virtual Assistant Do?
An virtual assistant helps businesses with simple tasks like managing emails, scheduling, data entry, transcription, and more—all done remotely from anywhere in the world.
Answering Messages and Emails
Responding to customer queries on email or social media channels.
Data Entry and Admin
Typing information from one document to another, or capturing physical information.
Transcription
Listening to audio or video files from podcasts, social media etc and typing them into text format.
How much do virtual assistants earn?
According to a recent consensus, the average beginner virtual assistant can expect to earn anywhere from $15.00 to $45.00 an hour. An experienced virtual assistant can make considerably more, with the average being $25 per hour.
- Beginner:
- 10 Hours/Week = $800 / Month
- 20 Hours/Week = $1600 / Month
- 40 Hours/Week = $3000+ / Month
You're half way there!
Have you ever wished you could work from home, set your own hours, and earn a stable income doing tasks you already know how to do?
The truth is that with the skills you already have—typing, organizing, answering emails, and basic office tasks—you are already in high demand, you’re just not labeling and selling yourself correctly, you need some guidance and direction. That is where Typewhizz comes to the rescue!
You are already 50% of the way to becoming a Virtual Assistant if you meet the following criteria:
- You Have A Laptop/PC
- Access To The Internet
- Strong English Skills
- Organisational skills
Are you ready?
Becoming a successful Virtual Assistant requires discipline, commitment, and consistency.
While the demand for Virtual Assistants is growing daily, many people struggle to reach their earning potential, often making less than $500 per month – when they could be earning $3,000+.
But, why?
Many people enter the Virtual Assistant field hoping to earn a steady income without any training, certification, or guidance. Unfortunately, this often leads to frustration and burnout.
To truly thrive as a Virtual Assistant, you need the right training, strategies, and tools to:
Market yourself effectively to clients.
- Connect with hiring companies and recruiters who are looking for virtual assistants.
Use shortcuts and productivity hacks that save time.
Deliver exceptional service that keeps clients coming back.
The job hunt struggle
One of the most frustrating parts of starting as a Virtual Assistant is figuring out where to find jobs. Scouring dozens of websites, applying to countless postings, and waiting for responses can feel like a full-time job in itself.
That’s why we created our exclusive Job Portal – a tool designed to save you time and energy by connecting you directly with hundreds of recruiters and hiring companies who use our platform to find skilled Virtual Assistants like you. With our portal, you can skip the guesswork and start applying for jobs that match your skills and interests immediately.
Here’s a common scenario:
Imagine spending hours managing a client’s calendar or inbox without knowing the best practices or tools to speed up the process. Not only will you feel overwhelmed, but your earnings per hour could end up being much lower than expected. Frustrating, right?
This is why so many aspiring Virtual Assistants give up too soon. Without proper training and the right mindset, they find themselves stuck in a cycle of low-paying tasks and long hours.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
With the right guidance, you can learn how to work smarter, not harder, and turn your skills into a thriving career that offers freedom, flexibility, and financial independence. Let us show you how to unlock your full potential and build a Virtual Assistant career you love!
How do earnings work?
