A <A HREF="www.timesvr.com" REL="nofollow">Virtual Administrative Assistant</A> has to always be up and ready to assist. I would know. I was part of one. It may be a small business, but it is a huge endeavor always pleasing people and never having the time to expand.Jerryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05160579597234379210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9026484337051027793.post-20832073918662499892009-05-10T04:35:00.000-04:002009-05-10T04:35:00.000-04:00Becoming a Virtual Assistant or even an Online Business manager opens a world of opportunities for an entrepeneur looking to start their own business. One of the great things about this business is that the initial outlay is quite small. To start out you need some basic software, a good printer, a computer and an internet connection, things that most people already have. <br /><br />One of the drawbacks is that it<br />is a business. Just because you are a phenom typist or the ultimate WordPress blog designer, doesn't mean that you have what it takes to start and grow a business. Take the time to do your due diligence and learn about running a small business. One important step that many small business owners, VA's included overlook is developing a business plan. You don't want to fall into the trap of spending all your time working in your business, instead of on it.Heatherhttp://www.robinsonbusinesssolutions.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9026484337051027793.post-91707188613842214272009-02-05T14:54:00.000-05:002009-02-05T14:54:00.000-05:00I have been a traditional Administrative Assistant for 15 years. When my employer was bought out, I decided that it was the perfect time for me to become a Virtual Administrative Assistant and be my own boss. I have used the whole process as a learing experience. I now know how to register with the government, build a website, and market my business. I am very happy I made this decision.<BR/><BR/>Kathy<BR/>www.theofficevirtuoso.comKathyhttp://www.theofficevirtuoso.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9026484337051027793.post-88591031656441753632009-01-04T13:05:00.000-05:002009-01-04T13:05:00.000-05:00Andy, this proves the power of word of mouth!

A VA just means that person can work remotely.

I don't want to hire employees and I don't have full time work. I just have small tasks that I don't have time to do. I would prefer someone that I can meet with, rather then a 'virtual' person. I'm not sure what to do yet, but I'm looking for a solution.Curthttp://www.pennyjobs.comnoreply@blogger.com
