8 Red Flags When Hiring VAs for Client LinkedIn Accounts

· listicle

Cheap VA labor isn't cheap if a client account gets restricted. Screen for these eight red flags — and structure access with workspace seats instead of passwords. /for/marketing-agencies

1. VA expects shared LinkedIn password

2. No experience with approval workflows

3. Can't explain how they avoid wrong-account sends

4. Promises unlimited connection requests

5. No written daily checklist

6. Refuses recorded Loom handoffs

7. Uses personal ChatGPT with client lists

8. No offboarding discipline

Safer model: member role on one client workspace, drafter not approver. /blog/agency-linkedin-team-seats-no-password-sharing.

Should VAs approve sends?

Default: no — senior strategist or client approver clears queue.
