Local Virtual Assistant Receives Entrepreneurial Recognition

Lansing, MI – Kristi Pavlik, owner of Adonai Business Solutions, LLC announced today that they are the recipient of the VAccolade Business Entrepreneurial award.

The VAccolade award not only recognizes participation at the Virtual Assistant Networking Association (www.VAnetworking.com), but also recognizes the professionalism with which Pavlik presents herself on the web, thereby giving them more credibility amongst other Virtual Assistants.

“Virtual Assistants (VAs) are business owners who work from their own office providing professional support, services and skills to their clients via phone, fax and internet based technology. Partnering with a VA reduces stress, protects cash flow, eliminates administrative hassles, and enables business people to find the success they originally set out to achieve. A VA is your right hand person helping you to succeed in your business. The irony is you may never meet your VA as odds are they live nowhere near you!” (definition from www.VAnetworking.com).
 

Adonai Business Solutions, LLC specializes in strategic planning, strategic marketing, process documentation and VA team management and is a home-based administrative professional providing various online services to her clients. Pavlik started her Virtual Assistant practice in order to have the flexibility to do what she loves to do the most – spend time with her family.
 

In a recent survey from VAnetworking, the United States has the largest number of VAs, followed by Canada, Australia and Europe. Clients only pay for time spent on their projects. There’s no need to pay for taxes, benefits, equipment, etc. VAs are hired on an hourly or a monthly retainer basis.

Jennifer wanted to share with others just how easy it is to find people to network with and connect with those people in a meaningful way that can result in more clients and more referrals. Non-Toxic Networking
isn’t about making an elevator pitch and talking at everyone you come into contact with, it’s not about handing out as many business cards as possible. It is a real, step by step approach to entering a networking event, finding someone to talk to, knowing what to say, and forging a bond that will make the other person want to do business with you.

Time: 2 PM Eastern

Cost:  free

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.

Are you fishing where the fish are? That’s the best way to stay in business, but many business owners are fishing (looking for their target market) in all the wrong places. Worse yet is the business owner whose target market is “everybody who will pay me”. When you target everyone, it’s just too hard to focus on anyone, and consequently you attract no one. The reality is that not everyone needs your product or service, nor is it a good match for every single person on this earth.

One of the most terrifying decisions you will make as a business owner is the decision to choose a target market. Why? Because you’re scared of excluding people and missing out on opportunities. However, the more focused you are in your marketing efforts and the better you understand and can define your target market, the easier your marketing becomes. Really!  In order to be successful, your goal must be to exclude as many people from your business as possible. When you are successful at this, the “right” people (your target market) will recognize themselves instantly and be much more willing and open to begin to like, know and trust you, and ultimately turn into a paying customer.

In this teleclass, you will learn:

–The reason that a narrowly focused target market will bring you MORE of what you want
–The best method for uncovering your target market when you don’t have a clue
–10 essential questions to ask your target market
–3 “make it or break” considerations for you to pick a target market
– How to create a target market profile that you’ll use every day in everything that you do
– 8 essential online resources to help you “reach out and touch” your target market
– Next steps to take

Virtual Assistants have several ways of reaching out to their potential clients. As much as you may like to sit at your computer, some of your best clients might be just around the corner. Connecting with people (both in person and virtually) is an absolute must if you want your business to be successful.

In this session Raeus will answer the top 3 questions she is asked

1. What is the #1 networking no-no?
2. how to break into and out-of a conversation
3. What is the secret to make your networking – work (and have fun doing it)

Learn:
• where to network to find more business (both in-person and virtually)
• how to introduce yourself effectively
• what to bring with you to networking events (and what not to)
• how to overcome the shy/introvert head stuff and actually go to events

We will have adequate time for your questions too.

Our speaker, Raeus Jae Cannon, works with professionals that want to meet more prospects, quit making cold calls and make more money! She is the CEO and founder of REO, LLC (a business referral introduction network).

Raeus focuses on the value of relationships, social capital and collaboration. She is a graduate of the University of Tennessee, Knoxville and has authored the ABC’s of Networking, a reference guide for professionals that want to improve their effectiveness at networking events.

Raeus believes “When You Network Well, You Never Need To Sell” and she has not made a cold call since 1998!
