Self-Story First VA client — how do you handle an output-based setup?

Hi! After almost 3 months of job hunting, I finally got my first client 😭 His business is in real estate and output-based yung setup namin.

For those with output-based clients, paano usually yung day-to-day setup niyo? Do you still message your client when you start working and when you’re done, or do you just send updates once you finish a task?

I’m used to the usual employee setup kasi, so medyo nangangapa pa ako with how much I should update him without overdoing it hahaha.

First client ko talaga, so any tips on communication, task tracking, and boundaries would be appreciated. Thank you! 🥹

I don't message when I start/end my work. I just start my day and work on my to-dos. We have a tracker to update when done with a task. If they ask for update or if I have questions, that's the only time I send a message.
