Check out the Virtual Assistance eBooks at VAnetworking.com

JudyAnn Lorenz of Bar JD Communications wrote a post in @Bar JD Communications today, VAnetworking.com has eBooks for Virtual Assistants that expands on the availability of a valuable series of eBooks from VAnetworking.com.

The series has some free eBooks and others which are very reasonably priced.  There are some that specifically address the needs of clients in choosing a virtual assistant or writing an RFP to virtual assistants.   Others help virtual assistants in beginning business decisions and planning.

This set of eBooks is a very good investment for clients who are just beginning to think about hiring a virtual assistant.  Or, sadly, if a business has had a poor experience with a VA, the eBooks contain information that might have offered options to avoid a poor experience.   Information that would have value in future relationships with a VA.

There is unquestionable value to people who are investigating the field of virtual assistance as a possible career move.

Virtual Assistants use Focus & Pace for Better Business

A post at Virtually @ Bar JD Virtual Professionals, entitled Focus and Pace can be Common Virtues for Virtual Assistants is about the benefits of focusing, self discipline and “PACING” your self and your virtual assistant business contains advice about the benefits of a paced working policy. The post was written in response and support of a post made by Ruth Martin of Maplewood Virtual Assistance entitled Got the Right Focus? made at Partnering with a Virtual Assistant the official blog for Vanetworking.com.

If you are sitting on internet and computer skills while looking for a place to land profitably, consider marketing these skills and working virtually!

Both posts discuss the benefits of focusing on Your Self to the benefit of the clients, the business, the family and YOUR SELF!

Time is MONEY for a Business & a Virtual Assistant

 At Virtually @ Eight Twenty-Two, blog for Bar JD Communications you can read discussion about a Cost Comparison between an full time employee and a virtual assistant which is presented by VAnetworking.com.

When businesses are looking at their budget, yet needing tasks to be accomplished, the decisions can be   frustrating to consider. 

 The budget doesn’t contain the volume for a professional in house employee. That is a FACT.  Yet, if this work isn’t accomplished, the business will be in even deeper budget trouble.  That is the TRUTH.

 

A virtual professional who is a member of VAnetworking.com at all levels, including Vainsiders, brings a network to the business that would not be available under typical circumstances.  In a matter of seconds, there is always a sample of the more than 10,000 members available to answer questions, share information and skills or subcontract to make sure the business has a tip-top end result.

I just want to encourage readers with thisVAnetworking.com is truly an international network with members on every continent.  Readers can consider the potential for the virtual assistance field and the potential for learning from people all over the planet.  I value my connections with peole on other continents and other regions.

The technology is very much the same for virtual assistants no matter where the base location.

The issues can be the same or extremely different depending upon the local resources. Frequently, personal issues are shared over land and sea with support coming from the network along with potential solutions. For anyone considering working from their own entrepreneurial office using technical and business skills as a base for services, a network is essential in today’s market.

Virtual Assistants can Take the Lead to Help Clients Rescue “Dead” Customers

 A post on Virtually @ Eight Twenty-two (http://barjdcommunications.com/virtualblog) talks about another post at Partner with a Virtual Assistant regarding the way business people can work with professional virtual assistants to resuscitate customer relationships that aren’t down the tubes or even revive those that might have looked dead.

 

Business people who are eager to push their business can check at VAnetworking.com to tap a network of virtual professionals who are capable of helping with this so important project.

 

The customer who has been satisfied with doing business with you, Mr./Ms Client is ‘way too valuable to neglect.  It looks as if you don’t have time because you have new product to develop and new clients to romance…after all your business thrives on a certain volume level.  What is often missed, though preached and preached by business counselors such as John Jantsch at DuctTape Marketing, these satisfied customers will ‘bird dog’  a beautiful customer base for you.  A base that you might have overlooked.  Meanwhile, you can concentrate on being the best business for them.

 

Virtual assistants who are already working with clients have a responsibility to be ready to suggest customer care to their clients.  No time to dawdle during this business climate.  Be the early bird and thrive.

Networking to Avoid Virtual Solitude Slump

In other posts, I’m writing about the potential for working virtually to use your skills when going to an onsite job isn’t possible. 

It takes special discipline to work on your own. This discipline or the lack of it is some cause for distrust on the part of potential clients.  Will the virtual person work hard or bill them for time spent just staring off into space.  Or time spent watching soap operas and eating bonbons. 

Networking with peers at various online groups can give you community, information about the industry, or camadarie with people who have been in the same boat you are now trying to bailout.  

There are many fine groups, but it isn’t possible to be active in many while doing justice to your business.  I have tried a few and have found VAnetworking.com to be one of the most solid and valuable to me.  There are 10,000 members to draw on for information.  There is a free side for newbies to learn an awesome amount about the virtual assistance field, as well as a paid side with valuable downloads that cancel the cost of the membership quickly.  The downloads are only one small part of what is available. 

Best of all, there is NO discrimination between paid and non-paid in the general attitude.   Everyone gets help and answers.  Everyone is included in the FUN things and in valuable seminars or group chats.  Just last night they had an online PARTY for the holiday and to celebrate the fifth birthday of VAnetworking.com

If you are thinking about making career changes toward the virtual field, you will greatly benefit from the things you can learn IMMEDIATELY at VAnetworking.com
