Virtual Assistant Teleclass
I'll thrilled to be offering with a Virtual Assistant Teleclass with Joan Stewart, the Publicity Hound, and Cindy Greenway tomorrow, May 17th at 1 p.m. We will discuss how to find a virtual assistant, what is a virtual assistant, how clients can best work with virtual assistants, hiring a virtual assistant, and also the niche of publicity with lots of pr tips. Joan has some great things planned for the class.
Here's what she had in her newsletter to announce the teleclass. Please join us.
1. Stop Doing it All Yourself
This month, Reader's Digest and the Wall Street Journal both have articles on the booming virtual assistant industry. Stay-at-home moms and dads as well as talented but sometimes
jaded employees who are tired of the corporate world are setting up shop for themselves, working for clients in their own communities or thousands of miles away. With skills such as bookkeeping, website development and public relations, they're helping clients get speaking engagements, maintain their websites, do invoicing, compile media kits, help with other publicity tasks and do lots of other detail work that drives people like me crazy.
"There is so much work for VAs, the field is thriving, absolutely booming," said VA Diana Ennen, who was quoted in the Reader's Digest article. She is the co-author of "Virtual Assistant the
Series: Become a Highly Successful, Sought After VA." My own virtual assistant has freed me up to plan and launch three major projects that will create new revenue streams this year.
Isn't it time you, too, stopped trying to do it all yourself?
I'll even help you.
Diana will team up with longtime virtual assistant Cindy Greenway and join me during a teleseminar I'm hosting at 1 p.m. Eastern Time this Thursday, May 17. It's called "How to Find a Virtual Assistant to Help with Your Publicity Campaign." We'll save you hours of time searching for a V.A. by telling you exactly where to look and what kinds of questions to ask during the interview. We'll explain how V.A.s charge for their services and share tips for smooth sailing. We'll even talk about sensitive topics like how to set boundaries with your assistant.
I first met Cindy several weeks ago when I contacted one of her clients to participate in a joint venture project. He invited Cindy, his assistant, to join the call and take notes. I assumed
she worked in his office. What I didn't realize until three weeks later is that he's in Phoenix, Arizona and she's in British Columbia, Canada. That's one of the beauties of working with a
V.A. They can perform most the same tasks they could perform if they were seated next to you.
If you're flirting with the idea of hiring a V.A., join us this Thursday. Registration is $39.95 which includes a recording of the call on CD that we'll mail to you about 10 days later.
After you've hired your V.A., or found a part-time assistant, join me for a one-week intensive training program June 11-15, via telephone seminars. This will be just like sending
your V.A., part-time or full-time assistant, or summer intern to publicity school. I will teach them how to handle all the publicity grunt work--from researching media outlets to tracking
down the most influential bloggers. They'll even learn how to help you maintain your online media room.
Several guest experts will be joining me for the calls. If you're a V.A. who completes the training, you'll have an entirely new skill set that will probably allow you to raise your fees. I'll
share all the details with you in the next week or two. Register for the May 17 call on how to find a V.A. at
