Oh, the lessons I've learned during my six years as a Virtual Assistant... These are a few commandments:
- Always trust your instincts - If a client sounds too good to be true, you can bet there are some scary things in his/her closet, stay away!
- Charge too little and you'll be a doormat
- Charge too much and you won't land any clients
- Communication is the #1, most vital element of your business - at a minimum, email back within 24 hours or you're going to lose business.
- Have a rock solid, un-negotiable work for hire agreement that spells out your and your clients' protections.

Ten years ago, when I received my marketing degree, coursework did not include classes for the types of marketing media that are available today. Having a website then was not as important as it is today. Technology has changed how 21st Century small business owners (SBO) market their products and services, as well as their options of communication tools.
