About Janine




Janine Gregor is setting a new standard in building virtual teams for entrepreneurs. Janine Gregor is known in the virtual world as the VA Matchmaker. She connects entrepreneurs with virtual professionals.

As a successful VA since 2006, Janine brings to the Matchmaking business an intimate understanding of what it takes to form a successful VA-Client partnership.

While skills are important, it is the personality, attitude and mutual beliefs that Janine scrutinizes for each VA match. This intuitive assessment skill is what sets Janine apart in the virtual team building arena.

​After a decade as a VA, Janine realized she had mastered the art of client longevity and trust-building with her own long-term clients. She rebranded her VA business into Your Virtual Dream Team in 2016 to help entrepreneurs build their own teams so they too could add expertise and support to the growth of their own businesses.

Janine has since placed Virtual Professionals with well-known online coaches such as Marisa Murgatroyd of Live Your Message, Lisa Sasevich of Speak to Sell and Sharla Jacobs of The Thrive Academy. And, with great pride, Janine also placed a VA with our lovely hostess, Tina van Leuven of ​Abundant Soulpreneur.

A resident of Florida, originally from New Jersey, Janine lives with her husband Mark of 25 years, 2 cats, Hank and Cameron, and a labradoodle, Percy (all rescues). Their son has moved home temporarily since graduating successfully from college in March 2018 with a Bachelor in Recording Arts. (Although he says doesn’t plan to stay!)
