A Virtual Assistant New Years Resolutions For 2007
The Virtual Assistant Industry has grown in leaps and bounds this year and is soon on its way to becoming a household word. It used to be people would ask, "What is a virtual assistant?" Now, the question is more, "Who is your virtual assistant?" It brings to mind years past when if you mentioned you were starting a home-based business, people would look at you like you were nuts. Now operating a home-based business is not only accepted, but also highly regarded.
This past year, we saw amazing evidence of the power of virtual assistants (VAs) with more and more media coverage, well-known authors and celebrities singing our praises, and businesses and corporations alike commenting on how hiring a virtual assistant has helped them to achieve so much more success in not only their business, but personal lives as well. Thousands of qualified and dedicated entrepreneurs stepped up to meet that demand and now join the ranks of being one of us-a virtual assistant.
When thinking of the VA Industry; brilliance, cutting-edge technology, and enormous dedication come to mind. This year let's take our Industry to new heights. Let's keep our proud tradition of being the best, and let's show the world, that they can't do without us.
Here are several New Years Resolutions to help you achieve greater success with your business this year:
Resolution #1 -- Make a commitment to get to know two people within your industry on a more personal level every month. Answer back an e-mail addressed to a VA group with a personal, "Hi. How are you doing? I'm Diana." Also, become active on VA boards. If networking locally, introduce yourself at a professional organization's meeting or a conference instead of just being in the background.
Resolution #2 - Take the time to organize your business and make it easier to run on a daily basis. If you haven't done so already, invest in a 3-ring notebook and put all the valuable forms you use on a daily basis in there including all your marketing letters, follow-up client letters, proposals, portfolios, etc. By customizing these forms now, you have them available when a client contacts you and are then able to respond to that client immediately with the right professionalism that will convince them to use your services. Bottom line - You don't have to reinvent the wheel each time.
