This newsletter is designed to provide periodic topics that cover the many benefits in considering Virtual Services to support your back-office needs. Additionally, we hope you will find some value in the materials covered within each issue.

- Exactly what is a Virtual Assistant?
- Teleconferencing

- Submit an Article w/your ad
Simply put, a Virtual Assistant (VA) is a resource much like an Administrative or Personal Assistant, without the typical employment related expenses (payroll, benefits, insurance, equipment, supplies, training, vacation, and sick/leave time - to name a few). Additionally, because a VA's success rests solely with the satisfaction of his/her clients, the level of commitment offered will likely exceed that of an employee. We, as small business owners, recognize the key elements required to ensure success.
Clear as mud? Hopefully our newsletter will provide information that resonates with your own individual business needs. One fact is certain, if you are a solopreneur, most likely your back-office processes are inhibiting concentration on core business practices that will ultimately improve your bottom-line. A Virtual Assistant has the experience to efficiently address and complete your support requirements. A good rule of thumb is to determine how much time you are spending on non-revenue producing tasks (clerical, research, customer service, etc). Compare the hourly rate of a VA v. your hourly fee And remember, you are probably spending more time on a task than your VA.

Have you hopped on the Social Media Express yet?
You know you're gonna do it eventually. But, what other measures are you taking to STAND OUT from the crowd?
Many small business persons and entrepreneurs are using teleconferences to communicate with their clients and followers. This method of connecting with your clients and followers is a wonderful way to personify your brand in our techno driven culture. Undoubtedly, social media has improved and practically replaced all other traditional forms of marketing. However, as with any popular and successful trends, overload eventually produces resistance. How are you handling the bombardment of emails, tweets, blogs, feeds, videos, and other informational schemes to keep you informed? How do you decide what to unsubscribe, delete, or ignore? Lasting impressions are usually the result of a personal touch. The opportunity to actually speak to a respected principal heightens the desire to maintain contact.
Teleconferencing can bring your brand to a level of recognition that will set you apart from your competitors. And, it can be done at no cost to you! There are many free conference calling providers found easily on the internet, a very worthwhile addition to your current marketing repertoire.
There is no better time to begin than the present! Choose a topic you might otherwise have discussed in your blog, newsletter, or other publication. Set up a call and invite your contacts. Allow enough time to present your material, and then open the floor for Q&A and comments. Result: Instant gratification for both you and your followers. Not to mention you will have created an audience eagerly anticipating your next contact.
If time is a consideration, please contact me to see how simple your Teleconferencing can be accomplished. Imagine the doors of opportunity that lie behind this very effortless means of value added service to your current and future clients!
