Welcome to Your Virtual Assistant Search Network

So, you've heard that the hottest new craze is Virtual Assistants! Well, we're here to help you find one!

First, you need to know what a Virtual Assistant is, right?

Virtual Assistants (VAs) are independent entrepreneurs providing professional administrative, creative, managerial, technical, business office and/or personal support services. VAs use the most advanced means of communication, and the newest and most efficient and time saving office products and work delivery, regardless of geographic boundaries. Virtual Assistants work from their own offices, on a contractual basis, and abide by an established Code of Ethics requiring integrity, honesty and due diligence.  Source: The Alliance for Virtual Business

For a growing small business, the need for extra assistance is often a roadblock due to limited office space,equipment, or funds. In addition, the time it takes to find and train an assistant may be time that cannot be afforded.

For those businesses that experience regular periods of heavy pressure due to an overflowing in-box - hundreds of phone calls and perhaps limited knowledge in how to take your business to the next level, you may already feel the need for the assistance of an extra body to ease the pressure and keep your goals on target.

The alternative to employing a full or part time assistant would be to use a Virtual Assistant.

What are the benefits?

• No training is necessary, most VAs are highly skilled with years of experience and can hit the ground running on your projects
• No office space or equipment to buy
• You free up time to focus on your core competency rather than spending late nights trying to figure out a website or send out your invoices.
• You have more time to plan for the future of your business growth and make long range goals
• You don't have to worry about payroll, health insurance, sick days or vacation pay
• You now have a skilled partner who can advise you on how to take your business to the next level
• You have peace of mind that comes from knowing your Virtual Assistant is dedicated to handling each and every minor detail
• You have a partner that doesn't succeed unless you succeed
• You now *have* an assistant instead of *being* the assistant

Growing your business can be a challenge, especially when you're trying to balance the needs of your business against your available budget. What can make things even more difficult is the increased load of administrative work that comes from successfully growing your business. A Virtual Assistant can help you lessen the burden without paying a small fortune. Why should you be swamped with a desk full of work when you could be out doing the tasks that you enjoy doing, the projects that inspired you to start your own business in the first place? Outsourcing your administrative functions will increase your productivity by 50% or more. How so? Well, how much is your time worth per hour? Would you pay yourself $100 per hour or more? Then it's easy to see that it would make much more sense for you to outsource some of your tasks to a partner who's hourly rate is much less than your own. That way, you can be out doing those things that"grow" your business and the assistant will complete the tasks that "go" your business.
