Frustrated by inaccurate media portrayals and industry outsiders miseducating their marketplace, Virtual Assistants head in droves to partake in the third annual Virtual Assistant Industry Survey

TACOMA WA, August 2, 2008—Virtual Assistants are fed up. They’ve had it with inaccurate media portrayals and reporters who don’t get the facts right. They’re sick of exploitive industry outsiders who don’t understand the Virtual Assistance business misinforming their marketplace. They’re tired of constantly having to explain the difference between an employee and an independent service provider. And they’re having their say about it all by participating in this year’s third annual Virtual Assistant Industry Survey.

Every August marks the time of year when Virtual Assistants can contribute to the statistics and body of knowledge that is improving the industry’s understanding of itself and the education of its market. Sponsored by the Virtual Assistance Chamber of Commerce, over 10,000 Virtual Assistants from around the globe are invited to participate.

Created by Virtual Assistants (the folks who know the industry best!), the Virtual Assistant Industry Survey is the most comprehensive and in-depth survey in the Virtual Assistant profession. With 101 questions, the survey includes detailed cross-sectional data that represents every area of the industry. It offers unprecedented information about individual and business demographics, market data, and services. Other survey topics include:

• Education, experience and credentials
• Employees and subcontractors
• Clients and target markets
• Hours and services
• Pricing and income
• Training and continuing education
• Marketing and networking
• Success, profitability and entrepreneurship
• Standards, Ethics and Educating the Public

“Thousands of writers, reporters and journalists have access to the Virtual Assistant Industry Survey. It gives them all the information they need to write the articles and profiles that more accurately portray our profession and educate our marketplace. That’s why it is so very important that every Virtual Assistant take a moment to participate,” stresses Danielle Keister, founder of the Virtual Assistance Chamber of Commerce.

The 2008 Virtual Assistant Industry Survey is open to all professional Virtual Assistants. A copy of the 2008 Virtual Assistant Industry Survey Report will be provided at no charge to every participating Virtual Assistant at the end of the survey period. Virtual Assistants can participate by visiting http://www.virtualassistantnetworking.com/survey.htm

VAnetworking Presents Seminar on Understanding Your Client …. Do YOU Know what they DON’T know?
 

On Wednesday, August 13, 2008 at 6:00 p.m. EST, Cindy Greenway will present “Understanding Your Client …. Do YOU Know what they DON’T know?” to teach the secrets of starting and maintaining client relationships.
 

Cindy took a leap of faith in 2003 when she started her Virtual Assistant business, only six months after the birth of her first son. It wasn’t until late 2002 that she even learned of the term Virtual Assistant.
 

Since the start of her business Cindy has worked with highly respected and successful online-based business owners by implementing and managing technology, automating and streamlining various processes, overseeing and managing current marketing strategies, building a virtual team, and contributing to the development of new products, programs and services.
 

Cindy loves her work and is passionate about the Virtual Assistant profession. Nothing satisfies her more than training and mentoring others as well as supporting the growth of the industry by educating the business community.
 

On this teleseminar you will…
 

“I don’t know what I don’t know.” is one of the most memorable statements I heard from a small business owner on a telelclass on how to boost business with a Virtual Assistant.  It took me a few weeks to fully understand what this person was telling me.  Do you fully understand? 
 

Virtual Assistants assume their potential and current clients have a full understanding of: 
- what a Virtual Assistant is 
- why they need a VA
- how a Virtual Assistant can help them (including how to get started) 
- how to delegate to a Virtual Assistant 
- how to communicate with a Virtual Assistant   … and much more. 
 

The truth is, most small business owners have very little or NO idea how to work with a VA.  In order to build a VA business and have successful and ongoing relationships with new and current clients, YOU, the Virtual Assistant, must tell your clients what they don’t know.  Join me and I’ll provide you with specific steps you can implement to fully understand your client and TELL them what they don’t know. 
 

Please join us at VAnetworking.com on Wednesday, August 13, 2008 at 6:00 p.m. (EST) so that you can learn to understand and anticipate your client’s needs.

Do you feel overwhelmed at the prospect of constantly writing new information and content or creating new products for your business? Most professional service business owners do, and if you’re like them, you do little or nothing to market your business or create information products. Instead, you hope and pray that customers continue to call you and that work continues to show up at your doorstep. This “flying by the seat of the pants” strategy may work well for awhile, but then the unthinkable happens: the calls stop, no one is hiring you, and your marketing well is completely dry.

What do you do now? Become a Repurposing Profit Machine! By writing as few as 2 articles per month, you can continuously drive traffic to your site, become recognized as an expert in your field, add passive revenue streams to your income, and put your marketing on auto-pilot.

In this teleclass, you’ll learn:

– The best way to write an article to repurpose
– The repurposing time management secret
– The 20+ ways that you can repurpose every single article that you write as either a marketing strategy or passive revenue strategy — or both!
– How to create a repurposing plan that works
– The keys for developing a repurposing mindset
– Next steps to take

Preclass instructions: Pick up your free copy of my ebook, Turbocharge Your Online Marketing: 7 Proven Strategies to Help You Get More Clients Online, at my website, http://www.onlinebizu.com. A recording of this class will NOT be distributed to participants. You must be on the class to get the information, or you can pre-order the full recording, handout, and transcript here: http://www.onlinebizu.com/products/item13.cfm
