Empowering future VAs to design a life and business that is both profitable and fulfilling.
As Seen In
A Career with Endless Benefits
The VA Starter Kit is our signature course for both beginners in the online space and those who are ready to raise the bar and are tired… tired of applying to fruitless low-paid gigs on Upwork, tired of working with clients who aren’t committed to your value. We teach you the stuff that’ll set up you with strong foundations for long-term business success, whether you just want to work from home or want to travel the world!
Virtual Assistance is a profession that is ever-growing in demand, so whether you’re after more autonomy, uncapped earning potential, no max holiday limits or you just want a change from the desk view, this really could be your ticket to freedom.
What Students Are Saying…
By providing us the tools, the energy, explanations, examples of clients expectations and a clear understanding of the digital nomad world, The VA Starter Kit has helped me transform my life in a very short time. I am now visible online and am getting clients enquiries 🙂
Hannah is AMAZING!!!! I had a one hour consultation to strategize building my email list. Not only did she walk me through setting up an email campaign but she took a look at my sad, sad Facebook pages and pointed out things I was not doing and needed to be doing, how FB actually functions when you’re using it for business. Hannah explains things clearly and is very generous with ehr time and talents! I HIGHLY recommend working with Hannah if you’re struggling to build your on-line presences. 🙂
I was blown away by the quality of information and attention to detail DNK provided, as well as the incredible community of people it connected me to. In just 5 days, I became a lot clearer about what I had to offer my clients, and how to ask for what I was worth. I joined their paid program after the challenge and, within the first few days, negotiated a great deal with a former employer to do VA work for them!
This was a great course to get started with the first steps as a VA. It teaches you all the basics in how to brand yourself, market, get your first clients and what basic digital tools you can work with. The FB-group is also a very encouraging environment and a good place to make new contacts online.
Easily one the greatest investments you could make if you are looking to make the jump to virtual assistance. Hannah is a fantastic mentor and she’s created such an amazing network that you never feel alone or in the dark.
The online space is an enormous ocean of information and one may easily get lost and feel in despair. Fortunately, I came across the 5 Days Challenge for VAs which put all the chaos in my head in order and in perspective. I highly and honestly recommend the Challenge and the VA starter kit since the biggest and most valuable assets from those is the professional and supportive networking on top of the preciously organized material.

COMMUNITY & SUPPORT
Everything you need, and nothing you don’t.
The VA Starter Kit is the best place for VAs and digital service providers to find their feet and THRIVE. We don’t have anything in this program that is ‘filler’ content. We provide you exactly what you need to succeed as a VA/Freelancer. Including a kick-ass community that has your back.
We know that your success is based on you having a solid foundation and marketing plan for your business – often the easiest part is doing your client work! You can learn a lot by doing it for yourself as a business owner, and on the job.
Over the years we realized a very clear pattern, that most VA and freelance businesses fail due to poor business planning. This program focuses heavily on the business side of things, from how to find, communicate with, and keep high-quality clients, to contracts, setting boundaries, pricing and marketing yourself in an ongoing and innovative way. Our support community is a place where you’ll find endless inspiration and friendships that’ll be by your side at every stage.
A failure to understand simple business principles is what got me into a lot of trouble in my early career as a VA. I made it my mission to raise the standards in this unregulated industry, to set a moral and professional benchmark and bring this message to the masses so that people, anywhere in the world, could thrive in a freelance career.
That’s why I’ve created over 150+ hours of free content, run countless challenges and workshops online and in person and why I invest so much time supporting my incredible VA Starter Kit students. This program is not only packed with everything below, but it’s also updated to include important additions as and when they become necessary, often by popular demand from the community, at no additional cost to you!

Live Q&A Sessions with Hannah
Every two weeks you get the opportunity to ask Hannah anything at all! These sessions are not only educational in nature, but often a really fun occasion for the group to come together.
Hannah is really an open book so not only do we cover VA and freelance business topics, but also the ups and downs of working for yourself. It doesn’t get more real than over in the Inner Circle. Some classic Q&A moment: random hot seat invites from Hannah, Hannah falling in a lake live and cartwheel challenges!
👑 The Presidency 👑
Inside the Inner Circle we have an optional fun and educational experience for students. Members can nominate themselves, or another, for the 6 week Inner Circle presidency. During their presidency, the elected candidate has full reign to implement fun initiatives for the group, to support their peers and gain invaluable community management experience – resulting in a testimonial from myself and a platform from which you can make yourself known for collaborations and opportunities!
The presidency makes for a unique, collaborative community where no one is left behind 🙂
Popup Co-working
The coolest thing about the Inner Circle is our members! They really take ownership of this community like no other. A recent addition to the group is the occurence of digital co-working. This has proved insanely beneficial for many members who are getting way more work done with an extra layer of accountability. That’s the fun part of being in this group, it’s ever-evolving to meet the needs of members at any time.
And we don’t charge you a monthly fee.
Most communities and Inner Circles charge anything from $15-99 PER MONTH for this kind of experience, and as someone who has paid into many of them, they aren’t half as engaged or helpful as ours – which you get included at no additional cost EVER.
Real-life Meetups & Events
The folks over in the Inner Circle have formed amazing friendships and professional collaborations in a short space of time – and they’re waiting to welcome you in!
In 2018 alone, I personally met with DNK Starter Kit students 39 times – and that’s not counting the student-led meetups across the globe that occurred without me (how rude haha). From Budapest, to Bangkok, Mexico City, NYC, Lisbon and beyond – we’re sprinkled all over the globe. If adventure calls you, they’ll be somewhere to share the experience with.
If you’re after real, living people to support you on your VA and Freelance journey – but also people you could have hangouts and vacations with as you delve into the nomad space. We are your people.

Hannah’s course is well thought out and the approach is professional as well as being friendly and supportive so that everyone feels comfortable enough to take the leap. I think there’s a lot of noise out there but this is a bankable bet if you’re looking to get started.
Wow what an incredible experience and investment! I highly recommend Hannah (DNK) and her amazing 5 Day VA Challenge. I am so glad to have had this wonderful opportunity to gain online skills to set me up for business. Having started this challenge/course, I didn’t believe I had any skills to work online… but Hannah set this challenge/course up in such a way that gets you soul searching and most importantly answering questions that will lead you to make a career of ‘what you love doing’ happen! Thank you Hannah!! 😀
I took Hannah’s VA challenge and loved her and her content so much I signed up for her masterclass and her course. She has seriously changed my life and my career path. I cannot thank her enough, definitely recommend!
This is just a brilliant resource. I started off with the 5 day course which gave me a really kick up the bum. I’m slowly working through the kit, as and when I can and need. I literally started off my journey on day one of the 5 day course. This was 3 months ago. All of a sudden I have clients coming out of my ears. I’ve secured 4. plus have had further enquiries via my fb and insta pages. I’m literally dreaming work and clients. It’s mad crazy, a little bit scary and mostly down to the Digital Nomad Kit and Hannah. a huge thank you! x
I can not thank Hannah enough! In less than two months I have gone from being unsure where to start to having three clients on retainer and proposals out for two more! She will challenge you to push out of your comfort zone while making sure you have a great group of people behind you every step of the way. If you want a *real* remote career, and not another scam MLM, you need to sign on with The Digital Nomad Kit. It is truly life changing!

Who is Hannah Dixon?
Oh hey! I’m Hannah, Biz Strategist, former VA and (obviously) VA Trainer. I have a weakness for travel, burritos and helping people build unique strategies for their business model. I dislike cookie-cutter approaches to digital marketing, coaches who teach coaches to be coaches who teach coaches…and rude people. I’m a people person, despite my stone cold (yet devilishly handsome) face and enjoy meeting and karaoke-ing with our DNK students at meetups all over the world. Digital Nomadism is my lifestyle – don’t ask me when I’m going home.
